Blade Runner

Inspiration

When Roy was dying, he said, "all those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain." The idea of those lost moments inspired our collage. We decided to a fully black-and-white background of other characters in the film and various beautiful images of the world. Roy's picture is elevated in bright colors. This contrast shows the loss of his memories, as if they are fading away.

This is us cutting out all of the photos for our collage!

Cutting the cardboard.

Taping the cut photos and painting the rest of the open space black.

Creating the stands to elevate the photo of Roy.

How did I relate to this quote?

Roy's final moments and the loss of his life's memories reminded me of a common phrase seen on social media. I see people excusing wasting time or skipping events by saying, "we're living on a floating rock, it doesn't matter, nothing matters." Although somewhat true, even if we are tiny specs in the middle of nowhere, this life may be all that we get. I want to live my life to the fullest by making as many fun and incredible memories and studying and working hard to achieve the future that I have dreamed of. Even if my memories do fade away after I die, I hope to look back and feel confident knowing that I spent my life with people I love and enjoyed it as much as possible.

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

Space Odyssey Observations: Ape's fighting against one another Why are they rivaling? I found it very interesting how one side ganged up on a member from the opposing side and beat him until he was dead Russians The Russians questioning about the private mission was very interesting Real-world connection Technology throughout the film It is incredible that the creators imagined what they thought our future would look like and actually got so many things correct Things like flat screens and voice control HAL Very creepy voice Plotted against the humans Even killed them Tried to outsmart Dave Then proceeded to plead for his life as if he was human This failed and Dave shut Hal down Begs the question: Was Hal actually afraid of death or was he trying to stay 'alive'? Dave zooming through the galaxies The creators of these scenes have very creative and innovative minds The colors, zooming in and out, the view of planets and galaxies All combined with music that kept you excite...
