Sound

                                                                    Sound


The most punctual techniques for recording self-assertive sounds included the live recording of the execution specifically to the recording medium. This was an altogether mechanical methodology, regularly called "acoustical recording". The sound of the entertainers was caught by a stomach with the slicing needle associated with it. The needle made the depression in the recording medium. To make this procedure as productive as would be prudent the stomach was found at the peak of a cone and the entertainers would swarm around the flip side. On the off chance that an entertainer was excessively boisterous then they would need to move back from the mouth of the cone to abstain from muffling alternate entertainers. In some early jazz recordings a square of wood was utilized as a part of spot of the bass drumThe Sound Recording Technology History Site investigates the history and effect of the innovations that changed the way we tune in.

F.T Marinetti

                            
                       

                   F.T Marinetti the frontiersman of the Italian futurism movement


F.T Marinetti was born in Egypt in 1876. He lived a life between politics and art. French was a second language to him and he finished his education in an international college run by French Jesuits. This was taken from Marinetti (2006) . From a young age he was talented in the arts of poetry and music and published a newsletter "le papyrus" where he eventually gained fame .in 1894 Marinetti was sent to Paris to take his baccalaureate at the Sorbonne. He later moved to Italy where he pursued a career in law in order to please his father according to Marinetti (2006) pg1

In 1899 he gained a doctorate but never set up a law firm instead he pursued his interests in music and poetry taken from. Marinetti (2006) pg. 1. This is not what sparked his popularity in the design world he was famous for his efforts involving the Italian futurism movement his vigour and ideals moulded and influenced futurists and visual practioners of today Marinetti’s ideology embodies that a designers arsenal is not limited to the visual and should include cultural views of clients this is taken from (as design history mhup. 2008).From my understanding of the information F.T Marinetti was a frontiersman for futurists especially in Italy as he developed many concepts which developed graphic design of today.

April grieman

                                    April Greiman the creative designer

April Greiman is a famous American graphic designer who is known for being one of the first graphic designers to use computer software and interface as a medium of design. Greiman is the head of "made in space design consultancy” in California U.S.A, reported from Art Directory gmBH. 2014   Born in New York she attended “Kansas City art institute” where she obtained a undergraduate degree, she later moved to Switzerland where she graduated in the Basel school of design making an impact on the American design community.  Also Smith,J(2009) reports that in 1986 "she accepted a role for the  issue #133 of the influential design quarterly magazine The issue entitled (Does it make sense)features a nude photo of April which sparked controversy in the design world and forced the industry to take note the opportunities involved in the use of computer softwares".

After this artistic work gained publicity we see a slight increase in the use of computers as designing tools. Throughout her lifetime she created other works of art such as "drive by shooting which can be found in Pasadena museum in California". Taken from drive-by shooting(2014) this piece of work is interesting as it’s digitally photographed. Also Smith,J.(2009) reports that "she continues to push the boundaries of design as she played around with typography and was named the founder of postmodern design". "Something from nothing" is another work of art which shows us her unique style. I believe from researching this graphic designer that she is a frontierswoman of modern graphic design as she paved the way for designing on software such as "photoshop" reported by Smith,J.(2014)

Analysing

                                                                     Analysing        

When i initially began this undertaking i had no information of flash or how to utilize it. I discovered it truly troublesome yet i continued driving forward until i figured out how to get an understanding of the rudiments of Flash and how to utilize it. I wasn't completely fulfilled by my last piece on the off chance that i had dealt with my time better i accept i could have made something better however with juggling diverse things and attempting to learn Flash i trust later on i will discover Flash less demanding to utilize . Separated from timing my genuine thought for my publication was what i needed it to be yet i feel it could have turned out better in the event that i made it more intricate. Anyhow despite the fact that it wasn't intricate i figure the effortlessness of my blog meets expectations in conveying my thoughts on the subject of undead media what helped me get this far was posting on my blog this helped me be imaginative and think of additional thoughts for the last bit of work . Separated from my issues with Flash everything else functioned admirably and as indicated by arrangement, for example, my genuine lay out of  my poster took after my sketches so i was really satisfied with that  if  i was excessively get a comparable venture like this later on i accept i would perform much better .

Poster write up

                                                    
                                                                     
                                                       
                                                               Sketch of  my poster 

           

   

  

The above sketches are quick sketches  of my poster once finished it would look something similar to the above image.


                                                              Annotative Research

My first inspiration for my poster was a sonic poster which once touched by user played sound this made me want to introduce sound to my poster . As sound would add more interactivity to my poster designed by Schwarts once touched  you would here sound. Similar to what i wanted to do i basically introduced sound into my poster i used an old gramophone as shown below to add this vintage effect to my own poster.

the above image of the gramophone: taken from http://thereminiscencelane.blogspot.co.uk/

For my colour scheme i used dark browns black and white and dark blue as these were cold colours and i felt it was relevant to what i wanted to  do and to the theme of "undead media." I got inspiration from a poster which i saw online on study net. The reason i picked this poster is it embraced that ancient old mood i also got inspiration for my layout as in the poster we see an image of a mans head and that is basically what i introduced in my own poster the mans head i used was was F.T Marinetti  the leader of the futurist movement. I also did the same for April Grieman in my poster by introducing an image of her the below image is where i got inspiration for my colour scheme

                                                          Creating interactive poster

The first thing i did is too get a background which i got of googled i typed  in vintage paper and came across one i liked i edited it on photoshop and saved it. Taken from google.

Reference List:  http://splashmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Vintage-Paper-Texture-vintage-textu.jpg                                                                                   

the second thing i did was to create a text animation with the words undead media  using flash and save  it for later use

my third task was to use photo shop to edit an image which i was going to use as a button which would play sound the image i found was a old music player which i felt was relevant to what i was doing

after editing the image i added it to my poster and once you  CLICK on it you here silent music eg the keystone cops.

the next image i used was that of F.T Marinetti  i used his image to act as a button so once you move over it you get  information about him 

 

after adding this to my poster i decided to show what my poster was starting to look like

The following are buttons and there uses in my poster.

This button once you move over it you get an animation of Mickey mouse dancing this shows the development of the flip book into the kineograph my poster as wanted to have four buttons

Final work

This gramophone once clicked plays old music from silent films.

once you move over this button a Gif image appears in the right hand corner which demonstrates a flip note being used i decided to add the flipnote because my mystery object was based on a flip note so i felt it neccesary to add this 

Reference to were i found  this image :https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTvXw0A9rJPj5j7gYqAGm5toJJgr-4lkvW5lImkb76CZkH_hpd_X7GM1e8

This is the image of the Gif which demonstrates a flip book in action
Reference to where i got this Gif image http://24.media.tumblr.com/115d27ee0ae0d6b19d5dc04badb87b26/tumblr_mqcbityMm71rqo4zeo1_500.gif

And finally.......  

 This is my text Animation which plays as soon as you open the poster

                            A  Closer look at the Flip book 



The flip book was an ancient form of media which was first introduced into American society by the late 1800,s by Henry Van Hovenbergh of Elizabeth. Although it was a primitive form of animation it laid the foundation of many cartoons and animations of today. “Like motion pictures the viewer relied substantially on diligence of vision "taken from (flippies inc, 2003).Which in turn created an illusion to the eyes. It was first known as "kineograph" which literally means moving image.
(Fouché, 2014) wrote that the flip book has many alternative names like daumenkino which, literally means "thumb cinema". In the 1960,s the flipbook gained popularity due to multinational companies such as McDonalds, "Disney" and "Canada dry" which used them for promotional purposes. Taken from (flippies inc, 2003).



The design for the flip book was very basic and similar to a small notebook. (Fouché,2014)  wrote that "it was originally stapled and held in one hand while you flip over the pages with the thumb of the other hand, either from front to back or from back to front the drawings gave the illusion of motion slower or faster depending on the speed". It was known for a long time as a pocket cinema (cinéma de poche in French).Reported by (Fouché, 2014).This media is the link between the book, and the animated picture. When we think about it in such a short period of time we see an evolutionary development of the flip book into its predecessor the "Cinematograph" (true cinema). For this reason I believe that the flipbook was an important form of media as it paved the way for modern animation.
