Assignment 2: Video Project

For the Second Project, Digital Video I took different
scenes from the 2010 Spring Fashion Runways,
some photos and music. My video is not a performance piece,
its like a collage piece. I wanted portray as if watching

television advertisement. Because one of the main
point in fashion is to try sell the product that was shown on the runway.
So I create this video as if I wanted to sell the product.
(Used Sony Vegas 9.0 to create and edit this video)

Assignment 1: Digital Photo

It was January 30th 2010, our church members gathered together to have a festival, celebrating for the New year of 2010 and to celebrate late chirstmas party. It was a great place to dress nice and show off our own fashion to others who were in the party. We made a photobooth like people who were famuous and did interviews and also talked about their
fashion for that night. I didn't edit the photo's and make them illustrative because I thougt it would be the best to show them without editing them. For fun I asked them to vote the worst & best dresser and the worst & best couple of the party.

First the best and the worst dressers

Jennie Lee voted as best and Eric Park was voted as the worst.

And for the best and the worst couple for their fashion was

Sung Kyoung and Jason as best dressed couple. For the worst was Kun Yong and me.

Bonus* Jason wanted to perform for me with his fashion.

Fashion design vs. Costume Design

I found this chart off some article, dividing

the difference between Costume and Fashion.

I thought about what we discussed about during my critique.

So I did some little research.

I found some links based on difference between fashion and costume design.

Artist Statement: Fashion

My work tends to focus on the human figure and its fashion as an art performance. My interest in fashion started off as when I started sketching people and every time I see them, they had different styles of fashion that fits and shows on their body figures. Fashion was like an unusual form of art to me, it was like sketching and slowly creating a piece of art with fabric which embodies on the model and displaying off that work to the public. A great example would be a famous female musician “Lady GaGa,” even though her fashion is very odd and unusual, but she is showing that there is no limit in fashion and she was not afraid of "perform" that to the public. The performer as the model has to be one with the clothes and balance the overall appeal to show the viewers the complete piece of art and on the runway the models doing their catwalk to the music. The world of fashion was as big as the world of arts very complicated yet so beautiful.
