Book Project: Perception Image
For my book project presentation I was assigned to discuss perception image. Perception Image is a “set of elements which act on a centre, and which wary in relation to it.” It is also particularly viewed as a wide angle shot. I chose to touch upon the two main ideas of perception image, which are subjective and objective perception. Subjective perception is, is the manner in which an individual views the physical world based on the workings of his own brain and sensory systems. Each individual has a brain, sensory systems, and cognitive structures that differ from those possessed by everyone else. As for objective perception, it means perceiving reality, and all that confronts our awareness, as it is. It is a matter of seeing things as they are, rather than seeing them from a certain point of view or position.
How I began my project, which was an instalation piece, was by walking through a park with a friend filming him as if I was looking into his life, but no one was really there and what we were really experiencing was his emotions and in his perspective. I chose to film this project first rather than take pictures right off the bat, because I wanted to use the way my mind sees and works with assignment. Which is in a moving image format. When directing the actor, I told him to act out confused and dull emotions. Some of which you would feel in a park. I occasionally focused the fram on a main subject, such as a dog or statue, just to allow the viewer to get more of a feel as to where we are and what the mood is. Following that procedure, I went through each scene and screen shot each major scene as an image. That alloud the viewer to see each scene as an image, rather than film. This also aloud the viewers to see it in a story board POV. Looking back on the project, I orginally chose for the project to be filmed at night, but when shooting at night problems occur, which is why I now believe it should be filmed during the day rather than night. When presenting the project, my originaly plan was to hang the images above the viewers head, inorder to have them experience the feeling of perception image. But that did not work out. So I chose to hang the imageson the wall as a story board view, although this also gave the viewers a perception image affect, because this alloud them to see the project in a wide angle shot and as a whole setting. In the end the project turned out ok, although I wish I did plan this a bit better.
