Creative Media Practice - Isadora

For this part of the project I experimented with the software Isadora. This software allows the producer to manipulate realtime and prerecorded media. One of the positives I found about the software was how the producer could import different media files and then allow Isadora to randomise the different files and create a unique end product. I liked the fact it gave the producer the ability to be the consumer to an extent.

I wasn't very impressed with the layout of the software, the features and look felt dated, also the effects felt rather dated too. It's gave me inspiration for in the future to create sections of films or music videos with a sort 80's style effect in parts.



In the video above I like the way the technique is used, I think the way the video would be improved to do experiment the use of colour more, I think the dot's work perfectly and this style could look really interesting if the shapes were sharper, and changed more in size. This technique could then be used really effectively in a Pop Art video piece. I'd like to explore this style for a music video of some sort.  


In conclusion I think this software could work well but to create something that's contemporary and substantial it would need to integrated into other pieces of software such as after affects or final cut.
