For this video projection project I wanted to create something that could work with and be displayed in pretty much any space. Because of this detail I knew that I had to chose a design or picture that was relatively simple, and yet it would still add to the space. I love the Mehndi (henna) cultural designs that are used in India for ceremonial purposes, but it has become popular as a form of a temporary tattoo here in the States, so there are many different types of designs to choose from. The three designs that I chose for this projected video were found on the internet and hand drawn by me, as well as being slightly altered from the original. It is a stop-motion video, meaning each time something appears it is a new photo, each being created in Adobe Photoshop and put together in Adobe Premiere. Although I created something that I knew could be put almost anywhere, the spot that I did choose was a more secluded area, but I knew that people still went by and through that area all the time, so even though this may not be a place that is out in the open for everyone to see and notice, I knew that it would still be seen because of how many people actually walk through this secluded area.
