3 Screen initial thoughts. (UPDATED)


So, my plan for this, is to present an insight into the different stories of technology and hacking being used negatively, to impact and change lives. To that end, I remembered watching a video titled Bradley Manning Had Secrets (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3nkHy8CsOA), which details over the way in which a Trans woman used blank disks to steal military secrets. The style of presentation is what interests me, because of the use of a more modern style to convey this story, and give a dive into a conversation between Manning, and an online hacker.  well as, Internet Story (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-SL4ejpP94), both by Adam Butcher.

I've decided to take this project on with my laptop, as it's an illustration model, and allows me to draw in After Effects. Once I have a story laid out, I can design some visuals, and have them correlate to points in the story. As for the style of said visuals, I want to combine some of the digital style of Adam Butcher's work, with this kind of building visual style, where images are animated through their process (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQ7yTyAzXoo), and less so the actual movement of sprites.

EDIT: This has proven to be way too much in such a short time, so I decided to develop my idea into something else, using the prospect of being hacked. For the three screens, I had the idea of having each screen show something visually interesting, on all three, but have occasional, miss-able glitches that show a face, and text, with the name of an infamous hacking software sprawled across. The point of this, is that in a lot of cases, you can be hacked and not even know it, and I wanted to capture that.
