OH... HELLO
Yuan [pronounced yu-ohn] Pan is a second year from John Muir College majoring in Media film. He was born on July 20th, 1990 and grew up in Irvine, California. He now plans to switch from third to first person narration because I think its easier this way.
I've been interested in all things visual for as long as I have existed. As a young child, I started by expressing my interests through the simple act of two-dimensional art-making: drawing. However, as I grew up I discovered more & more creative outlets to explore my visual interests. From elementary school to high school, my interests expanded into painting, sculpting, designing, crafting, and assembling 2-D, 3-D, and digital objects and subjects from all over the place.
By the time I was 16, I was severely confused as to what exactly my professional interest was to be... and then along came my first (serious) camera. I was instantly obsessed with photography and its ability to compose, capture, and manipulate vision. But not long after I started playing with photography, I began to yearn for something more and thus looked into animating my still images. Very quickly I developed a passion for combining image and sound and articulating them over a timeline--thus creating video. Since then I have stuck with film as my expressive medium of choice; however my past explorations of drawing/painting, designing, crafting/assembling--the conceiving an idea and very hands-on act of carrying it out/bringing it to reality--still very much remains in me. Thus, although my primary interests are in film, I do intend to/have been incorporating the designer/craftsman side of me into my video work.
However, throughout my childhood explorations I never really ventured into the realm of electronics--a realm of boundless potential that I feel I can not go on any longer without becoming acquainted with. I hold a lot of excitement for this class and familiarizing myself with electronics because I know it will broaden my creative abilities/possibilities in converting ideas into an actuality; and this in turn will broaden my capabilities/capacity as a filmmaker.
