A1. COMPILATION 1 (15%) - Due Sunday 11.59pm, 23 March (Week 3)
Assignment 1 – Compilation 1
Compilation 1 comprises work produced in WEEKS 1-3 in the form. of 3 media sketches (quickly made "proof of concept" media works) and individual reflections on class discussions and ideas.
You will share 3 x BLOG POSTS of your work on your Mediafactory Blog.
Each blog post should contain (1) a media sketch and (2) a reflection.
Your blog post should not just be links. You can upload media sketches to YouTube, Vimeo or SoundCloud and embed these into your post.
Group work is group work—no individual variations.
Weekly Reflection Prompts
1. Independently identify a recent example of media work that uses AI in some capacity (even if you're unsure precisely how). Reflect on the following questions: Why did you choose this work, and what makes it interesting or effective? How do you think it was made? Given that this kind of media work is being produced and consumed, what implications does this have for media industries and society at large?
2. With your group’s media sketch this week, what do you think worked well? What do you think can be done to improve the work?
3. What are your thoughts on this week's reading - do you agree or disagree with the points? What is a key principle/thoughts/quote that really stood out for you — why? Does the reading spark any new thoughts for you?
* For video work, if you do not wish to have your video publicly listed (eg. on YouTube), choose "unlisted" rather than "private". Sending your video to "private" will mean that your video will not be viewable.
