Eugiene Riecansky

A designer, animator and director who has won many awards, and has worked for many famous people such as Muse, Madonna, and has designed Jim Carrey's website.
He came into our school and gave a talk on his job, how he got to where he is today, as well as the different stages of making a music video, as that is what he is most famous for.
He talked about pitches and treatments, and the different components of that.

I did find his talk very interesting, it was just a shame that it wasnt relevant to my project, as im not doing anything to do with music, however, it can help me in my titles and the music that will go over it, as one thing that i took form his talk is that you can adapt the film to match with the mood conveyed in the lyrics. As the lyrics in my theme song are simple and bright, i can match the video behind it with it, and my plan for my montage does actually match this, as it contains lively images. Also, a major point of his talk was that i need to have a clear point from the beginning and know what im trying to convey, and even though different parts of it pay change during the film process, ive had a strong idea for quite a while.
