Blowing glass has always been a hobby of mine. Since I will soon be graduation from UMass Boston as a CMT major i need to start looking for a job, and I was hoping that I could combine my hobby, and my degree into a perfect job.
The main idea of my project is to tell the public about myself and the are I create, to show the public my art, and to show the public my production lines, and give them a way to buy it. To tell the public about myself I will give them a brief history about myself, telling them where I am from and how I started blowing glass. I have many pieces of glass that I have created, and has a story behind it. Because of these stories I don't want to sell the glass, but I will want the public to see the art, and hear the story. I want also to show my production line to hopefully make myself some money so I can continue to make art.
My project will consist of three forms of media. They are videos, still pictures, and texts. The videos will show me blowing glass, so the public can see how it is done. The still pictures will show my art, and also let the consumer know what they are buying. And the texts will tell the stores, about me, and about the art.
The final presentation will be a websight, that will combine the videos, pictures, and texts that will inform people about my art, and hopefully sell some at the same time.
