Panel 1

http://openprocessing.org/visuals/?visualID=24829
Lines are introduced with a consistant space between them but variations in length and transparency. These lines are continued over the series of panels and are intended to create the floating effect. Instead of using a gradient in the lin colour like originally intended i chose to use float in order to control the start and ending of the random length of lines in order to create a similar effects. Because of time restrictions i couldnt spend too long trying to firure out how to use the gradient so this method was better for this project. 

In pannel one coloured lines similar to the white lines down the page are introduced with a higher transparency and colour and bunched up at the bottom of the page. thorughout the rest of the panels these lines are to look like they are traveling diagonally and changing colours as they go over the panels.

Floating are bubbles, random sizes, shapes and transparency. This is not a main feature so i have kept them grey and there highest transparency less than 100 in order to mkae them a minor enhancement. The shapes are there to help create movement in the page but in a contrasting more relaxed manr than the lines. 
 


Panel 2

http://openprocessing.org/visuals/?visualID=24834
Panel 2 follows the same principles as the first panel only the lines have began to start and end further up the page and the shapes are tranforming into a less elipse shape and a more sharp edged form. This starts the transformation from circles into triangles. 


Panel 3

http://openprocessing.org/visuals/?visualID=24833
Panel 3 has a consistant increase in the lines positioning up the page and the sharp edged " elipses" have now trnsformend into a more square shape. Again using random in order to make the image look as though it is transforming as it travels across the panels. You may notice that by this panel the shapes are falling lower to the bottom across the horizontal line creating a sort of grid format.


Panel 4

http://openprocessing.org/visuals/?visualID=24835 
In the final panel the bunched lines are obviously higher and the shape has concluded its transformation form ellipses into trinagles. The shapes are also now moving to the bottom of the page. My intetnion with the different movements was to make the viewers eye travel around the image and across the panels. the use of transparencies was in order to give it depth which didnt exactly work or turn out the way i had planned.


What i found hard
I found it hard to start my design from scratch. Prior to this project i hadnt realised how much i had depended on the development of my work to come up with new images as well as the codes that had been provided and already put into the programs. Starting from scratch and just setting up took time in titself.

Evaluation
I like the way that the image is random and not repeated. It has a sense of floating as intended however with the skills and knowledge that i have lernt whilst creating this i still wasnt able to give it the depth i had hoped for. The subtlty of the lines looked effective on the computer however after printing them and looking at the images again agin, i think its importatn to use a higher transparency in rder to make you design stand out more and make the colours more clear.

Having not much experience with computers i found it very difficult to try and start from scratch and create an image, however i learnt alot along the way. Although doing this process was time consuming and there were times where i would do hours of work and get nowhere I dont think my image conveys that which is a relief.
