Week 7 only consisted of Tuesdays class, which was the last True to Form class before the mid-semester break, and it was an important one as it was where students had to pitch their ideas to the class and a panel consisting of Paul, Robin and Andrea. It was a nerve-wracking, yet informative experience and […]

Growing up I went to an art school where we were encouraged to try different techniques and broaden our stylistic repetoire continually, which is exactly what I’m attempting to do through this investigation. I’m interested in creating a beautiful and emotionally evocative piece, that utilises colour and form to draw in the viewer. I’m currently […]

So, in the struggle to come up with some material for my investigation (e.g content), I’ve come up with a theme to work around, and that is a journey. I like this idea because it flows well with the nature of the assessment task or investigation, as I continue to iterate my ideas and develop my […]

In Thursdays class we were tasked with writing up a draft for our pitch/presentation, the class was given an allocated amount of time and some prompting questions. I came up with a short draft (post #9) but at the time I was still a little bit confused on what I wanted my animation to look […]

What are you interested in and why? what you will be investigating?  The vehicle with which you are to do it? I am interested in creating a beautiful and effective piece, that uses colour and form to draw in the viewer. I am doing this through paint-on-glass animation. This is a form of sop-motion animation where […]

In Thursdays class Eve and I worked on creating a letter to send to music publishers/bands to gain access to music for our films. It was fun as we tried to make it sound as professional as possible while trying to stroke the bands ego subtly so that the publishers/band would say yes. Paul gave […]

On Tuesday, we had the group consultation with Paul, it was good to hear that he thinks even the simplest ideas can be the most effective/interesting. I was struggling with committing to my stop-motion animation idea because I felt like I was taking this course to do more live-action exercises. Post-consultation I felt that Paul […]

On Thursday last week we had to do an exercise which was sort of like a mind map, to get the idea ball rolling for the final assessment task. These exercises are always useful, especially considering my current state of idea related lethargy. I have never considered myself good with ideas, but rather with the execution […]

I wasn’t able to come to class the week of the expertise exercise due to sickness, so I went to the edit suites to get some footage to edit together from the other groups.  Here are the three ways in which I edited this footage together: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BygIkgGOp0AFUTBlei1LOGZ5SVU https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BygIkgGOp0AFbVF5T0hCd1pyQkU https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BygIkgGOp0AFRWZJMW5XaU00Tkk I don’t think anything was lost, […]
