Reality, Defined: Process and Final Video

Short Description: This short video was created as an introduction to my thesis area of study. Reality is an elusive subject that can be perceived by every person differently. This video provides a crash course on several forms of reality such as virtual reality, augmented reality, and hyperreality. The video was created in the style of the Everything is a Remix series here on vimeo, using several forms of media such as vector graphics, video, and free stock photos. Song is by Deltason called "Remote" from freemusicarchive.org. Virtual Reality Video is called "Virtual Eye Glasses EPK" available on archive.org.

Process and Reason for Making. The process for making this video depended on syncing up my voice recording with motion graphics that I created and various media that I found and thought would fit with the themes and concepts of my script. The idea for this video stems from thesis writing that serves to establish definitions for repeated concepts I will use in my thesis paper (will most likely be appendix information). This will allow the reader to fully understand the difference between the forms of reality I mention in my paper, and also provide more information that won't appear in the paper for reference. It will also serve to introduce a survey I will give for my final thesis project.
