My video is a visual embodiment of the two conflicting visions I have of my future. I’m not sure how my life will play out, or if my visions will even come to fruition, so I wanted to keep a somewhat abstract sense of time where it isn’t quite clear if it’s 2030 or 2080.<\/p>\n
One of the most important elements in my video is the record and turntable. The turntable was my grandfather’s from the 1970s, and I liked the idea that it would be with me in 2080, over 100 years later. I made a custom record cover and label with the name of the video to aid in my goal of building a fantastical world around me. Even though the two parts of the video seem to be completely different worlds, my goal was to use the record as a way to bridge the two and bring the second half into reality.<\/p>\n
As of now, I’d like to go into costume design for film and TV after graduation, so I put a lot of thought and effort into the clothing I chose to wear in this video. The first two dresses are light-colored and are meant to represent innocence and positivity. The third dress is black with a heavy black coat on top to represent spiritual death and burnout. The transition to a flowy, white dress represents a revival of lightness and weightlessness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12774,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[43,107],"class_list":["post-12773","student-work","type-student-work","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-time","tag-embodied","tag-first-year-online"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
