Just for Fun..

This was a little dino buddy I drew out as a rough idea and coloured it up in photoshop. I really like him and am going to play around with drawing a dew different ones out digitally.

Cut Out Fun

The class were all put in groups and asked to produce a stop motion animation based on a line from the a fairy tale/poem they were given. I was placed with one of these groups with Ingrid, Andy, Georgie and Dan, this is the finished piece.

I really love the look of the tree and foliage, I think it has a really distinctive style and overall has a european feel to it. This way off working is something that interests me and I look forward to experimenting with it in my future work.

Treasure Trove!

I came across a great Illustration website, with a large variety of inspirational works from around the world, I recommend it to anybody to have a look at, weather it be for educational purposes or just a but of creative fun!
The website is: www.illustrationweb.com

Some of the artists I found on this website which I really liked are:


Alexandra Ball
I really like the the shapes and the gentle colours this childrens illustrator uses. They look as if they could be created using watercolour. 

Ron Borresen

I like the humour in this illustrators work and I really like the depth and quality of the digital colour work.

E.C Woodard

This artist has a very strange look to their work which I think is very striking and I think the line work contributes to this.

Tianyin Wang
This graphic artist is one of my favourite artists I found while looking through the artists archived on this site. I love the beautiful line work with the bright vibrant and wild backgrounds. I would like to look at experimenting with this in my own work.

Pixillation!

We were given an hour to produce a sequence using the pixillation/stop motion technique and this is what our group came up with. My role was that of a director, rather then playing on of the live actors in this piece. I really enjoyed this exercise and  I can see the creative potential for this technique.
Our concept was a damsel in distress would be running away from a huge killer squid and a hero would step in and save her! We are pleased to introduce......The Attack Of The Squid (2012)  :)

Deadline...

Well, it has been a hectic week this week (hence the late post-apologies!) but I am happy to say that my E4 Ident has really took shape and all although it still needs tweaking and a few finishing touches it will be ready to go for the competition entry! Below is a still from the animation, before the rabbit enters the frame just to show you how the whole thing will look like when it's finalised.

I have also finished my morph sequence, which is a flamingo turning into a old desk lamp....poor flamingo!

I am quite happy with this morph sequence, but I do want to work back into it, add colour and perhaps sound to give it a little life of its own in my spare time.
