what have I done?
(eye, photobook, camera workshop, self-directed work, other…: what, how and why in each case)
What did I learn? - Making certain technical choices (i.e. Lens, camera, and other equipment) according to the work, resources and environment - Histories of camera, lens, editing and photobook; and how these influenced the way we work now - Taking writing as a way to think and reflect the works - Software skills etc.
What do I want to do next? - More experiments on how text/ ways to arrange text can work with still or moving images - Making one essay-film for the EYE project - Learning some more concepts (and skill) on working with moving images
In order to do the next thing:
What do I know already? - Techniques on writing a script (at least on fictional narrative), and on writing poetry – working with text - Some basic facts about the theme of my project (i.e. repurposed prison in the NL)
What do I need to find out? - How to edit footages and so they would produce certain meanings (to work with the text) - How to use sound - More techniques on how each kind of shot would make certain effects on audience
How do I find out what I need to know? - Watch interview of editors on youtube, or read about their working process - Concepts on how and where to cut - Learn forming a narrative with images (still or moving)
Who can help me? - People with editing experience - Sound artist

What’s the minimal to tell a story
How to provide ‘space’ and also ‘hints’ for audience to actively read the work
