Project 1: The story of a square

The brief: start with a black square, end with a black square, 10 seconds long, what happens is up to you.

So, after brainstorming this brief I came up with an initial idea of have my square, dissolving it and having it transform into an abstract shape which gradually reforms the box.
However after trying to make this piece I found that it was very boring and without an actual story line.
So, I began to experiment, just basically playing around within after with what I already had, the dissolving block. Eventually I noticed that the pile of pieces resembled that of a mini mountain range which led me to think of the idea that there is another world within the box itself. I then transformed the shape so it became alot bigger and added a sky changing from day to night with a sun appearing and disappearing. And this is where I am now ( here are a few screenshots).










Brainstorming will lead me to the conclusion because this beginning was never actually set out in stone and only thought up on the spot. stay tuned for my thoughts on the ending.
