Today we were given our 4th small project of the semester for second year Electronic Arts, entitled
"After Second Life: digital communities, networks and sustaining relationships"
In this project we are asked to look at a variety of social networking and digital communities and respond to it, incorporating what we have learnt, through a blog.
For my Project I want to discuss the ways people have used social networking and various specific digital communities that appeal to me, particularly video based communities, for example; YouTube.
I want to look at reasons people share their videos, and how these communities can be used to promote your work or let you share your knowledge.
My practice is Electronic Arts, and I am in particular, interested in 3D Modelling and Animation, which is a very time consuming practice, and I am only just beginning to learn what there is to know. Using what I do know my aim for this project is to create my own videos, maybe 10 over the next 3 weeks. This way i'll learn the practicalities of video sharing and how this can be used in the Future to promote and share my work.
For me this is all part of the learning process, and hopefully this blog will allow me to share my learning's and opinions, and help advance my practice.
