Play!

I have been having a debate in my mind about this brief. On one hand I feel like I need to make 3 polished and developed gifs, to get the marks and also to have something I am fully happy with to present on Monday. On the other hand I just really want to play and have fun. I feel like I am just brimming with weird ideas, and different processes by which to make these gifs and I want to try them all (or at least as many as I can fit in). I have been saying that I need to make something with meaning, which I do still agree with theres no point of making a gif just because...but then investing so much on the idea/meaning behind these gifs is stopping me from being experimental and producing the work. I think that with gifs, they can just be silly or funny or playful and that this kind of tone is really appropriate to them as a medium. Also coming near to the end of first year I want to experiment and be stupid whilst I still can and the marks don't count (not meaning that I don't want to get good marks, but just that I can take the risk).
