Bladerunner: Creative Process

We chose to show Roy’s point of view with his memories. As a replicant he experienced things including fearing for his life. He was the antagonist and leader of the Nexus 6 group that went to earth but in the end, he really showed that he was scared to die and worried his memories would be gone. We wanted to show both his dark side and what we thought was fearful for him. We made a storm with pouring rain coming from a big cloud, each raindrop or tear is a collage of his memories. We decided to get the pictures wet and smeared to symbolize the memories fading away with the rain as Roy died.

Some images we included in our collage consist of the robot eye and human eyes which was huge importance of this movie. The object used to detect if someone was a replicant was also in this collage and we made sure to add Leon and Pris who meant a lot to Roy and felt the same feelings as him, fear. We made sure to add his creator Tyrell as well as the brand nexus and of course the number four which would be his year death date. We also added pictures we thought symbolized Roy’s end quote talking about attack ships on fire and C beams glitter in the dark. I chose to add some images of robots to show that although Roy was physical and felt human, he still wasn’t. We added a picture of a dove symbolizing him letting go of his life at the end of the movie. We put pictures of Earth specifically at the Bradbury hotel where he stayed. I also think it’s important to add Deckard in this collage because Roy knew of him and even mentioned that he thought he was supposed to be the best guy to capture replicants.

5th Element: Fashion Show

I enjoyed watching the futuristic movie 5th element. I particularly enjoyed the fashion that was shown in the movie. I thought it was minimalistic but very futuristic. Leeloo had few outfits but the ones she wore were incredible and vibrant. I also really liked Zorg’s outfit, it showed men’s work wear but also had a shiny green color that made it different than what we see today especially on men. This is what inspired me for my fashion outfit. I wanted to use menswear and reconstruct it into a women’s look and repurpose items like a tie. I went to the thrift store not having an exact idea of what I was doing and I came across 2 gorgeous purple stri[ped men’s button downs, one specifically that had a green tint to it which made it unique. I then found a large lavender skirt that I cut up to make floating sleeves. I found a children’s vest that I would have my model fit into and wear. I found a lavender fur scarf that would be cut and glued around the trim of the vest. I also bought a p...

Ready Player One notes

 I really enjoyed the movie, my group decided to use Minecraft to interview a stranger. I asked the stranger what he wears in the game vs what he wear in real life. He said we wears armor in the game and shorts and a t shirt in real life. I thought it was important to ask him what he wears because in Ready Player one, Wyatt wore nice clothes and wore things based on how he wanted to appear to other in the game even if he could not wear these clothes in real life.      The second question I asked was what his hobbies/job was in the game vs real life. He said that his character in the game builds houses and breeds villagers but in real life he works in a car dealership. This is very different and it depends on the game but clearly he does this as a hobby in the game but would not necessarily chose to do it in real life.      This relates to my health science major because I believe video games like this are a source of relaxation and people go on th...

The Matrix: Conclusion

      After hearing the Matrix debate whether to take the red pill or blue pill, I stand with wanting to take the blue pill. I could not take the red pill knowing that Morpheus could be lying or untrustworthy. I understand wanting to now the truth of the world you live in and have free will but how can you truly have free will if you dont know the person giving it to you. Taking the blue pill is not ignorant but rather smart, this allows you to maintain the life you have and attempt to figure out the truth if you decide to. I don't think everyone would be ready to know the truth that Morpheus had to offer. Or even worse, some people may think they are ready and end up like Cypher, resenting everyone around him and trying to go back to the Matrix at any cost. I also know I might regret taking the red pill when I found out that everyone was chosen as "the one"  and we are all the same and might not make any actually difference. Knowing Morpheus before and after ta...
