Thoughts on Camera-less Filmmaking

I really enjoyed the camera-less filmmaking project. It was interesting to discover all the various ways to distress the film and paint on it. I liked to practice the various techniques and experiment with the film strip to create new looks. One thing that I enjoyed the most was the dye. It allowed for the most experimentation. It was fun to add oils, blow the dye, and use cotton balls to make my final product. Overall, I was really happy with how most of the project turned out. I regret that my animation did not look better. I thought it would look cool but watching it as the transfer to video happened it was barely noticeable. That is how I feel about a majority of this project. I feel like it sometimes looks cooler as a wall decoration than when projected. Still, I really enjoyed this project.
