Project Proposal


For my project, I want to make a video that deals with the work that goes into setting up and running the NJCU gallery. The main focus of the video will deal with the process of how the artwork is installed from day 1, to the end result of the opening, Along with this, I also will include other details such as how the event is promoted, how are the artists are selected, and how is it all then deinstalled and prepared for the next show.

The footage will be taken from the Visual Arts and the Lemmerman Gallery, as well as the Gilligan Student Union Gallery, with the final result, being a documentary style video that will include voiceovers as well interviews with the gallery’s staff. Included into this will also be time lapse footage for certain art installations, to show the amount of time that is put into setting up a show, at a rapid pace.

For this project I will be using my iphone and the Sony-Nex5r to film, as well as both a tripod and monopod to steady the footage. With no prior knowledge of video editing, I have already begun learning how to use programs like iMovie and Final Cut Pro in editing the sound, lighting, and footage that will be used for the project.  Through the large amount of footage that will needed, in all I will have 5 videos each 5-10 minutes long, uploaded on YouTube come the project’s deadline
