As part of the Portfolio segment of this project, We were to design some sort of web based platform which will help show out work to future possible employees. After months of working on it im happy to share my now launched website that shows the work I have created inside and out of university.

Although we have been told to create A3 portfolio pages which these are, I personally when it will come around to printing my portfolio pages i will be making them as A4.

Now that this project has drawn to a close, I can't help but reflect back on the time ive had on Visual Communications and all that I have learnt, What I have created for this final project Is something I used to think was impossible when I was younger even in my first year. And I can safely say that I have surprised myself as this is just the start of this skill set which I hope to grow further as I grow. Ive really enjoyed my time on this course and for it to end how it has sadly due to Covis-19 All I can say Is that I wish the best for all of my friends and peers that I have shared time with on this course and that I hope they end up having a happy career and future. I will always have both incredibly stressful but funny memories of my time at Arts University Bournemouth

As part of the hand in, we are to create some presentation board that explains the project and the development in a very simplistic and easy to understand way. With me presentation board I wanted to to stay simple so that the imagery would speak louder, and keep the text short and too the point.

For the viewer, I would suggest playing the video while sitting back or on a TV where you will not see the Gmit colour lines which are evident due to the quality of the video, I woulsd always aswel recommend listening with headphones as this pics up on smaller details within the sound edit of the overall video.

I decided to make a small trailer for my motion graphic, This was to help further depict this becoming an experince which would be shown at schools or galleries as an art piece.

When it comes to the audience, after some debate, I decided to have to appeal to all ages and genders, they way i wrote and constructed the script with very somple with very little complicated words so that It will appeal to children as well as adults. I feel like in doing this will prove beneficial as it is meant to educate.

Throughout the project, With the renders, I tried to continuously develop and perfect my renders bit by bit as I learnt new processes, Im really happy how my project developed throughout the project and am looking forward to experimenting further in the future.

After tons of editing and adjustment, this is what the raw edit file ended up looked at, It took a long process to get it how I wanted and Im happy with how it eneded up looking like ocnsidering the current state with the world right now.

Im really happy with how this reads and have even been able to get a film student whos specialises with scripts to also read through it for me. After all of this we were able to start recording the voice which went really well.

Finally I feel like these renders and the audio effects are starting to come together very nicely which I can say im happy with, out of all of these the last two are the closest to what I feel llike i will use with some slight adjustments, By using lens blurs it allowed to to shaow and distrot the audio as it got close to the camera and the viwer watching it.

Now that I have created the audio effect for each planet, I decided to use the earth to test the eway the audio will look and simulate around the planet, Althogh these tests looked interetsing there was still little tweaks that I felt like it will only look sucessful if the audio and the planet complimented eachother in a nice balance rather then one more overpowering than the other.

Although I have played around with a specific orb effect that will wrap around the planets, I also considered another factor where i would have the sound waves pursate away from the planet to simulate the sounds flying of into space. although the style looked interesting, It was too intrusive and took away the visual identity of each planet far too much making it appear too strong.

These images show the initial appearance of each planet and the suns audio visualisation which I was able to create using after effects.

Now that I have seen what these styles could potentially look like, I really like how the movements can reflect the frequency and pitch of the audio files themselves which could prove beneficial when explianing the process in the motion graphic.
