Digital Creative Challenge 3 (DCC3)

Virtual Mural Project

Project Code: DCC3

This capstone project is worth 25% of your overall grade.

Review the DCC3 project board on Miro for diagrams and examples.

In DCC3, your group will collaboratively conceptualize, design, and create a virtual mural that reflects themes or concepts covered in course lectures. This theme should be inspired by course content beyond superficial qualities (e.g.,using layers and colour).

Each group member will design and integrate a 4,000 x 1686 pixel section of the mural forming a visually unified and thematically cohesive composition. Every group member will create their own Animated GIFs with transparent backgrounds will overlay their mural section, adding a pop of visual interest. The completed mural will be displayed and collaboratively be assessed in-class exhibition on December 5.

This project has two main components - the virtual mural (often thought of as the background) and the  time-based, animated component. The time-based animated component will be an animated gif - there will be an in-class animated gif workshop on Week 11.

COLLABORATIVE RESPONSIBILITIES

Digital Creative Challenge 3 is a collaborative project. Depending on how your group works together, there may or may not be a need to meet outside class time. Each group (formed on November 7) will complete a Collaborative Agreement Form. outlining logistics and responsibilities. Each group will have 5 people, however, depending on the class size, there may be some groups of 4. Each group member is responsible for creating their own 4000 x 1686 px at 72 dpi section & animation.

As a group, you will all be responsible for the following:

•  Determining you content and intentions when choosing a theme and formal approach for the virtual mural.

•  Create a visually unified on Miro, with each section positioned side-by-side hopefully creating a seamless look.

•  Decide on an approach to immaterial such as image asset types, animation approaches, and

colour schemes. Individual immaterial and palette choices should complement the group's overall vision.

•  Decide on the order of sections early and coordinate with adjacent creators to design and negotiate visual transitions.

•  Ensuring that each section is a composite image made from 11 original assets, including photography/ virtual photography and generative AI.

• Animated GIFs with transparent backgrounds, at least 100 x 100 px, consisting of a minimum of 3 frames.

• You will design and place your animated GIFs over the mural in a meaningful manner.

•  Embrace the immateriality of the animated GIF.

• A 400-word group project statement covering the content and intentions, the group's formal strategy, section integration, and cover design. A printed copy must be presented in class.

•  Properly installing all sections and animated components onto the Miro Gallery Board before the final class meeting.

•  Participate in the Class exhibition and Community Assessment

INDIVIDUAL COMPONENTS

Each group member will be responsible for writing their own Project Statement (200 word minimum) for the section they created and completing their own Group Survey (DCC3GS). This individual project statement is different from the group statement and should address the content in your section of the mural, how these ideas are  visually expressed, and how the group approached integrating your ideas into the collective mural. Also, in your statement, discuss your group's approach to integrating your animated component and summarize your involvement.

Each individual virtual mural section should:  

•  Creation of virtual mural section (background) that measures 1686 x 4,000 px at 72 pixels/inch.

Submit an unflattened work file to Avenue and post jpeg the jpeg to Miro.

• The creation and use of the minimum of 10 original photographic image assets. Any drawn/painted layers do not count toward this total.

•  In GIMP, your work file should be an XCF (eXperimental Computing Facility) file.

•  In Photoshop, your work file document should be a PSD (Photoshop Document) file.

• The creation and use of at least one Generative AI image asset(s) in this project.

•  One animated GIF comprised of at least 3 cels, has a transparent background, and that is not part  of the same file as the mural section (background).  The GIF met the minimum size of 100 x 100 px,

72 dpi.

•  On the Miro board your animated gif will be placed on-top of the mural and visually integrate well into the section it was designed for. The animated gif can be larger than the minimum image size and the gif must include transparent areas.

Be artistically unified in terms of form, subject matter, and content,

•  Have a sense of visual unity (balance), or, a productive sense of visual imbalance,

•  Install your mural section as a jpeg and animated gif to the Miro Class Gallery following the posted installation template.

•  Include a 200-word project statement that describes the concept behind and your approach to your mural section.
