Set-Up: Content included


After mapping out each individual canvas, we were able to upload the content.
We then started to discuss ideas about colours, seeing as although we hadn't originally planned to have a colour TV, and there was split choice between the group, we finally decided on a black TV set, with a white control panel, and grey tuning knobs. This gave some distinction from the brick background that we started off with here:




We also looked at rectifying finer details such as the top and bottom of the spray paint can which were difficult to map as they were smaller shapes on the screen, however we finally managed to, and coloured them grey to fit in with the colour scheme of the TV set.
This image shows Joe and Lauren mapping out the more specific details using the software, and relating it to the projection on the canvas'.






These pictures show the final stages of colour correction on our piece.







Leaflet


As part of our installation, we were to create a short piece of writing which discussed our project, what we are trying to accomplish and showcase, as well as the story/meaning behind it. This would act as an informative description of the piece, as well as to enable passers by/visitors to see what the installation is about and why it's there. 
We decided as a group to create a colourful leaflet type piece which we could either stick to the plinth as other groups had, or to leave on the projector for people to skim read before moving on. We thought this would create a more interactive and physical aspect to our piece, rather than a block of black and white text, which is uncreative. 
We included our contributors in the leaflet to inform viewers of who was involved in the project, as well as for the contributors benefit to get their name and work on display. We also wanted to make sure we had emailed the dancer/graffiti artists/MC/DJ duo, as well as the companies we had been involved with such as BEAT dance company.
