TIK TOK FILTERS
Project Statement 2
Going into project 2 I wanted to work with the idea of bringing to life my drawings into a 3D space. After playing in the effect house in the lab I quickly fell in love with it because of how versatile it was to stack layers of effects onto each other to the point where it felt like another world. So in this project my plan was to give this creature a world to live in by creating an AR world. I wanted to combine the functionality of the tik tok filter with a virtual installation that users could interact with. I created this virtual dreamscape that felt corrupted while using the filter. The creature is set in an AR plane making it seem like the viewer is looking into another world. In one of the filters I added a glitch effect that turns everything around into green pixels on top of that a swirl effect is also seen distorting the creature and its environment. I became interested in doing more of these AR filters after I finished. I want to continue transforming my 2D drawings to 3D. Something about using a 3D space makes the work feel alive or come to life. Blender is such a great tool for recreating 2D objects or ideas.
