'Map That' final Presentation.

Setting up: We spent a total of about 3hours blacking out the room with board, fabric and a loooot of gaffer tape. We removed all the clutter, arranged the tables to either sides of the room as a place for our boxes. We then positioned to torches hanging from the light fittings, so they hung over the boxes to show small pools of light.


The purpose of the room being pitch black was so the effect of the light from the film projector and hanging torches would highlight the 'nothingness' of Dungeness, and also emphasize the sound boxes as these were our primary responses.












The crit and presentation went well. One point raised which i found interesting was wondering if the 'shipping news' tape was really needed, as the strength of the presentation was in the sound boxes and our individual ways of representing that. Was it because we didn't have enough confidence in our own sounds, that we needed something as a backup?
In planning stages, the point of the overhead sound was to try and compete with the sound from the headphones, almost a battle to see what you can hear, which reflects the problems we had with the wind when we were at Dungeness.
