For my final project, I'm making a zoetrope (above). Zoetropes were invented in 1834 by William Horner. It is an optical toy, very similar to a flip book. A sequence of images is placed inside the cylinder, then the viewer spins the base and looks through the small slits. Spinning the pictures creates the illusion of a moving image.
For my images, I will be using pictures from the 1880s and 1980s themed photo shoots. The sequence will start out with my female model wearing clothes from the 1880s, and the pictures will be treated to look like old tin-type photos. Then they will evolve into a 1980s look, with the model wearing bright colors and makeup. Above is my concept board and planning page. The sequence will show storytelling, and how much a culture can change in 100 years. The concept board was helpful because it allowed me to play with shapes, textures, patterns, and colors, which I used to create the designs on the base of my zoetrope.
