Went to B and Q today to get some pieces for my recorder device because the workshop didn't have the materials. Going back into the workshop on friday because today the metal workshop was closed.

Sketch model of my alginate moulder. I have decided to roll alginate (a quick drying mould) onto the weathered walls to pick up all the cracks, chips, holes and erosion. I began testing out the alginate today however it didn't set properly so i am going to have to try again this weekend.

I have decided to make the main body of the roller out of plastic (available at the chelsea shop), metal for the connection and wood to make an ergonomic handle.

Once I have got the alginate mould I am going to cast it in clay and wax to see the different effects, and then take some rubbings of the final models.

My chosen site for the recorder project is Crucifix Lane due to the damp and dark interior. I am going to record the decay and erosion of the bricks.

Architect's house chosen for essay is Walter Gropius - Gropius House.

Reporter Project

Today we walked from South Bermondsey to London Bridge Station along the old railway viaduct. This is the site for our reporter project so I took some photo's of particular areas which interested me. For example the medieval column's and arches.

Finished

Film project finished and handed in today. Could have done with some more editing time to make it perfect but it was only a 3 week project and I'm pleased with what we produced.

Got the new brief for the christmas holiday project which looks interesting, looking forward to getting started. Excited to be working individually on this project rather than in groups, having only worked in groups so far.

EDITING

We have begun editing our 6 minute section of the 20 minute film. So far it is going well and it all seems to be fitting together and making much more sense. We have also started to put in sounds for example city sounds for Canary Wharf, footsteps, wind and newspaper rustling. We were going to use a sound track but this distracted the viewers attention away from the film and meant that the audience wouldn't focus on the time lapse photography etc.

Eventually we are going to put all 3 edited clips of film together to make the final 20 minute film.

we put our finished story board up on the wall of meis so that everyone knew what exactly was going on. This would help us get the perfect footage for our film, as well as showing how long each scene would be.
