Who are we? Hannah, Marcus, Michelle and Orlando
Our idea in a nutshell • Identityand Social Media • False Identity • True Identity • Isolation • Addiction • The effects of social networking sites and different forms of media on social interaction.
Project Aims • To bring attention to the increasing usage of social media over physical interaction. • To portray an over-exaggerated reflection of the addiction to social media. • To encourage people to step outside and create ‘Real’ relationships and experiences rather than hide behind a fake identity.
Online Identity • Real Identity vs. false Identity • Social Networking vs. Social Interaction • Addiction/Isolation Vs. Freedom
Key Contexts • http://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/video/2009/nov/29/identity-exhibition-wellcome-collection - Article on identity exhibition in 2009 – Talks about big brother diary room. ‘Are we who we are inside, or are we who we are in everybody else lives?’ • http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLF9282487457A36CF - Students are asked about identity. • http://www.fastcocreate.com/3017108/you-need-to-see-this-17-minute-film-set-entirely-on-a-teens-computer-screen

Technical skills required • Skills we have: • Lighting, Camera skills, Sound engineering skills, Craftsmen skills • New Media – Sensors, Arduino, Processing. • How will we acquire them? • Tutorials, books or technical manuals or made contact with members of staff or practitioners who will offer support?
Individual Roles • Hannah – Curator, Editor, Storyboard, Art Director • Marcus – Researcher, Camera • Michelle – Editing, Curator, Scriptwriter, Art Director • Orlando – Director, Finance, Camera
What will we gain? • Practical skills… • We will be learning how to physically construct a space to make it our own • We will be following our specific media pathways later on in our careers. And pursuing our dreams in being successful in them in the future. • This project stimulates us to open our minds to think about who we really are as individuals and how social media has an effect on us all. • consider what you will gain from this project. How does it develop you as a media practitioner? How does it relate to your individual career goals? etc
