Quest of the (Un)Common

This was a motion piece I created using still images. We were asked to document a frequent, common journey we normally take for granted and has become a mindlessly automatic experience and think about how we can make the ordinary, well, extraordinary. So my everyday journey begins when I wake up to get ready for school. I particularly used circular objects throughout the piece as a way to symbolize repetition, routine, over and over. Same thing, different day basically. Then when I'm all ready for school, I open the blinds and there is a carnival awaiting outside my home. A carnival being that one thing to make my day extraordinary. Break away from the routine. Something that isn't in town all year round.
