In
"Poetics of Space", Gaston Bachelard describes how the house
has been used in art and psychology as a metaphor for the mind, the
body, and the psyche. |
The
cellar can represent unknown fears.The attic sometimes represents higher
thought, but also a place where things can be locked up and forgotten.
|
This assignment is to explore the metaphor of "the house". |

In this assignment, we will be working with Quicktime Real-time streaming.
This assignment entails choosing a text to work with; making a realtime streaming
Quicktime movie using reference movies; using Dreamweaver to create rollover
states; using Dreamweaver to create a Quicktime popup window to view your
movie; using Photoshop to create thumbnails.
Make a video based on one of the texts provided in the rollovers above. To choose a rollover above, replace the house image (house.jpeg) with your own image (160 x 120, 72dpi only). Use Cleaner 6 to compress and encode a real time streaming Quicktime video with multiple connection speeds.(approx. 2:00 or shorter).Create a still frame from your video, and resize it is using Photoshop to a 160x 120 thumbnail. Use this to create a new rollover state in the table above, leaving the original text you chose untouched. Make a link from the rollover in the table above, to a Quicktime player pop-up window using Dreamweaver's Property Inspector, html code and the Behaviors window to create the pop-up.
