1.The work I admire
Chase No Face / BELL from zach lieberman on Vimeo.
I really like this project because of the natural interaction between the sound, face and light!
people have very rich facial expression when singing. In this work, song, face and light combine together perfectly and beautifully.
2.The one supervised me

The richness of the light effect supervised me, especially the last few seconds of the video.
The large scale of the light balls is also impressive. It would better if the interaction part(when people in the matrix of balls) are more.
3.The one disappointed me
CELL | 1 | showreel from Keiichi Matsuda on Vimeo.
Author said that project’s aim is to lead people think of the tags form social media. However, these tags on screen are all random, which made me really disappointed. With these meaningless tags, audience focused on figure out the mapping between body movements and the tags’ transform but pay no attention to these tags. If the point is only the movement control, then why tags? What’s the relationship between the Internet tags and people’s true character? What’s the feeling when people are labeled by these tags unfairly? In my opinion, I want to know more about these question from this project.
I guess the author should give audience more awareness of what are they interacting with.
