Paper Mash...er no. Ah! The History of Paper Timeline.

After exhausted few days since last weekend. What a turnaround for me and Antonia to planning all over again since yesterday. 


When Antonia went for one to one tutorial with Anna. She got a feedbacks from her about the 'Paper Mash' idea which it isn't turn out to be great idea?! So unlucky we have been quite frustrated for couples of minutes after her tutorial. I told her we must continue and look at the bright side. Often we were looking forward to create fun 'Paper Mash' tournament but....no. 


Let's moving on, so we came up with another few ideas about this project and it is only 5 days away!! ekk. However, we got some good idea for this project. We chose to do 'The History of Paper Timeline'.. we came up with this idea from the history about the paper. We thought how did paper made and when did paper first invent? Google them. It was the Ancient Egyptians, Romans and Greeks used papyrus, a tall water reed found along the banks of the Nile to write on, back to the 3000BC. Pretty amazing, wasn't it? Do you ever realise how long paper have been strongly influence us for many many years since then...look like technology era will take over paper eventually soon! 




For planning time, as we did that talk today (after DVD Studio Pro lesson was cancelled) and we came up with few machinery idea to create it and film it soon this week. I and Antonia want to create domino short film about the history of paper timeline. We will be creating 6 different sections to represent history relate to 'Paper'. 


  1. 4000BC - Egyptian Papyrus 
  2. 3000BC - Early Chinese Paper
  3. 1580First ever newspaper to be published by Micael of Isselt in Cologne, Germany.
  4. 1863Earliest use of toilet paper in a roll form, patented in the USA.
  5. 1871Germans used paper as coffee cups.
  6. 2000's - Professional varied of papers have been use in Worldwide. 


So, as you see above bullet points and that what we will be creating into domino short film. Watch this space!
