When I first started working on the slideshow, I had trouble deciding between which photographs to use because I was attached to too many of them. However, throughout the process of putting together the slideshow, I learned how to use only the photos that were essential to telling my story.

This project was about exploring dual meanings within an ordinary household object. At the beginning, the viewer has a preconceived notion of what s/he is watching, but as the object is revealed, that mentality changes causing the key word(s) (that are displayed at both the beginning and the end of the sequence) to take on a different meaning.

Lessons learned: Have a strong concept and execution will go smoothly. I began the project with many ideas and tried to make all of them work; unfortunately that left things looking muddled and unfocused. Only after selecting one main concept and deeply editing did the piece come together.
