As part of the 150th anniversary of the School of Applied Arts of La Chaux-de-Fonds (EAA), my classmates and I collaborated with the Museum of Fine Arts Le Locle (MBAL) to produce a video each, presenting a female artist and her artwork from the museum's collection.
My assigned artist was Sandrine Pelletier, a designer and mixed media artist from Lausanne, Switzerland, and her artwork was called "Black Sun". For my video, I took on all aspects of production, including research, writing, storytelling, video concept, recording the voiceover, and creating the animation.
Initially, I had planned to film the artist in her studio for more insight into her work and personality, but this was not possible due to her unavailability. Therefore, I shifted my project and decided to make an animation instead. I conducted a thorough research process of archives containing interviews, videos, and books about the artist.
The book about the artwork was my primary source of inspiration, as it provided detailed information on how it was made. The visuals for the animation were mainly taken from there, while the audio featured a voiceover that explained the artist's life and process, along with snippets of interviews the artist gave, which provided insight into who she is.
Finally, the video was displayed in the museum as part of the 150th anniversary celebrations of the EAA.
