My research is looking at the contrast between opposites. Such as: Space - hot and cold Time - past and present Colour - colour or black and white Emotion - happy or sad Depth of field - focused or blurred Light - dark or light Temperature - hot or cold Surface - rough or smooth Etcetera… After some recent thought and consideration I have decided that I will concentrate my research on the question: Can colours critise each other as opposed to colours that compliment each other? or maybe What does poetic darkness metaphorically and visually translate into? From which I will produce a piece of motion graphics that can be used as promotional video for my own portfolio brand JAC which stands for Jackalcreative. This will hopefully help me develop skills at branding, motion graphics, promotion, marketing and graphic design. Which are all areas that I would like to become professional at so that when I finish my MA I can get a job in a design studio and put this into practice.Tumblr (3.0; @researchintopractice)http://researchintopractice.tumblr.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_letz3hYILk1qec3aqo1_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_letz3hYILk1qec3aqo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_letz3hYILk1qec3aqo3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_letz3hYILk1qec3aqo4_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_letz3hYILk1qec3aqo5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_letz3hYILk1qec3aqo6_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_letz3hYILk1qec3aqo7_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_letz3hYILk1qec3aqo8_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>The style of Film Noir</p> <p><a title="Film Noir photos blog" href="http://filmnoirphotos.blogspot.com/"><a href="http://filmnoirphotos.blogspot.com/">http://filmnoirphotos.blogspot.com/</a></a></p>http://researchintopractice.tumblr.com/post/2690249467http://researchintopractice.tumblr.com/post/2690249467Mon, 10 Jan 2011 18:40:28 -0500<a href="http://www.jaspergoodall.com/projects.php?show=4">The work of Jasper Goodall</a>http://researchintopractice.tumblr.com/post/2584578462http://researchintopractice.tumblr.com/post/2584578462Mon, 03 Jan 2011 14:58:26 -0500<p> <object id="prezi_de04ef6faaed3b465269e4e5c24300ec31a7a69e" name="prezi_de04ef6faaed3b465269e4e5c24300ec31a7a69e" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="550" height="400"> <param name="movie" value="http://prezi.com/bin/preziloader.swf"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff"><param name="flashvars" value="prezi_id=de04ef6faaed3b465269e4e5c24300ec31a7a69e&amp;lock_to_path=0&amp;color=ffffff&amp;autoplay=no&amp;autohide_ctrls=0"><embed id="preziEmbed_de04ef6faaed3b465269e4e5c24300ec31a7a69e" name="preziEmbed_de04ef6faaed3b465269e4e5c24300ec31a7a69e" src="http://prezi.com/bin/preziloader.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="550" height="400" flashvars="prezi_id=de04ef6faaed3b465269e4e5c24300ec31a7a69e&amp;lock_to_path=0&amp;color=ffffff&amp;autoplay=no&amp;autohide_ctrls=0"></embed></object> </p>http://researchintopractice.tumblr.com/post/2329871292http://researchintopractice.tumblr.com/post/2329871292Wed, 15 Dec 2010 19:42:14 -0500<p>I have decided to do some brainstorming of all the areas that I want to explore. There are so many subjects that interest me and some seem very different from each other yet they have all spanned from a process driven research method starting from the idea of exploring the meaning behind <strong>darkness</strong> and also <strong>collective thinking</strong>. All the other subjects are expansions on these two areas of thinking. So with the brainstorm I have tried to tie these two areas together.<img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldgxz3Apq11qdkwbp.jpg"/></p>http://researchintopractice.tumblr.com/post/2323859547http://researchintopractice.tumblr.com/post/2323859547Wed, 15 Dec 2010 07:14:02 -0500<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/13494671?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0" width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/>http://researchintopractice.tumblr.com/post/2165025947http://researchintopractice.tumblr.com/post/2165025947Fri, 10 Dec 2010 07:33:26 -0500<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/17411241" width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p>I have just watched this.
