I\u2019ve realised I simply don\u2019t dedicate enough time towards being creative!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My primary focus was on creating my short film. I decided to focus on the media\u2019s portrayal of the coronavirus and because of this, how it has changed the way I consume the news. Before the pandemic, I enjoyed keeping up with current affairs, hearing about what was happening around the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"940\" height=\"788\" data-src=\"https:\/\/modernartoxford.org.uk\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/JacobRobinson_Screenshot.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-50988 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.modernartoxford.org.uk\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/JacobRobinson_Screenshot.png 940w, https:\/\/www.modernartoxford.org.uk\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/JacobRobinson_Screenshot-300x251.png 300w, https:\/\/www.modernartoxford.org.uk\/cms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/JacobRobinson_Screenshot-768x644.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 940px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 940\/788;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, during the first lockdown, I began to grow tired of the repetitive headlines and endless numbers. Whilst the pandemic is the greatest threat I have ever experienced, being stuck at home and swarmed with these day after day made me think about how to keep up with the news in a more mindful way. I completely understand the severity of the pandemic, but sometimes I had the desire to completely switch off and escape from this nightmare.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Sounds of lockdown | City as Studio 2021\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/O2T5F2q5bk0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I created my film with the intent of encapsulating the overwhelming effect the news had on me. Employing what I had learn from the workshop with the sound artist Poppy Tibbetts, I made an accompanying soundtrack, adding effects to each snippet of news.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think my biggest achievement over the course of the residency was achieving an end result. I usually find it difficult to know when to stop and the time constraints allowed me to simply be satisfied with my work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I thoroughly enjoyed this experience as it has encouraged me to pursue artistic endeavours with a greater passion. I obtained many new skills and hope to have more opportunities like this in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Find out more about City as Studio,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.modernartoxford.org.uk\/learn\/city-as-studio\/\">here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jacob joined our City as Studio online film-making residency in April 2021.
