Originally this started out as a storyboard, but with the video and sound element, it’s now more of a short film. The concept behind the storyboard is photographically interpreted song lyrics; I listened to the song ‘Black is Good’ by Young Rival and picked out lyrics that I found compelling. I then imagined the lyrics as scenes and did my best to make those a reality. The end result came out to be the story of a working man coming home for the night.
The work is an interactive city scape. The viewer has the choice between making the city scene day or night. In the work there is a moving sun and moon for the respective scenes. This adds a minigame element where the viewer can switch the time of day when the moon rises or sets. This makes the work more narrative; the viewer can imagine time passing in this imaginary place and the viewer can control when the day is over.
