Sight of Sound:
Better Than Revenge
Exhibition
Animation, Postcards, Posters, Pamphlet
Risograph
Oct–Nov 2023We were inspired by the striking instruments and lyrics of Taylor Swift’s "Better Than Revenge." All the elements used across all deliverables are from the footage created by us experimenting with different objects. That includes smashing vinyl, using ink to write letters, and burning matches, flowers, and pictures. The animation process involves going back and forth between After Effects, scanning, and Photoshop. From the footage, we produced posters and postcards. Adding an extra touch, we burned the edges of our postcards. We also produced a pamphlet that contains the process of this project.
I was involved in planning and putting up the exhibition. I drew the exhibition layout, including how the posters and postcards are going to be displayed. We have 10 teams for this project, and each team is given one pedestal to decorate on their own. For our pedestal, we displayed our postcards in a flower pattern and put rose petals around it.
