Project Proposal


Working at the Visual Arts gallery I want to make a project that is related to my work in every aspect. For this project I want to make a series of videos based on the tasks that come with running a gallery. While there are an abundance of websites that can educate people on the steps and process, there are hardly any videos found on sites like YouTube. In this day and age, people don’t want to turn to a book to learn how to cook or use Photoshop, but instead rely on videos found on sites like YouTube, where they can follow along or visually see how things are done.

At first I wanted to put my ideas into one video but I feel it would attract more people if the video were split into 5 to 15 minute segments. While the Visual Arts Gallery may not be the perfect example in showing how a gallery is run, as it is funded by the school and isn’t driven to sell the artwork, I want to put as much footage as I can into this project, including interviews with other galleries.

While I have yet to decide precisely what topics I want to talk about yet, since this is going to be a video project and since I do want it be made in the best quality, I plan on learning about video editing and am looking into videos like documentaries that I feel I can use as an example within my own project.
