Chaos Theory Animation

I have finally completed my animation for the Divergence brief.
2/3 weeks of stop motion and it is finally over, it's been a steep learning curve, as I've learnt a lot from after effects, making sure the tripod is set up correctly, lighting etc all had to be considered. As well as the actual medium I was using. The origami paper was very fun to work with, especially with the vibrant colours! It was just a little time consuming creating all the different characters/scenes but I don't mind at all, I think it's been fun! :)

I think being cooped up for so long writing an essay made me splurge my creativity into other things such as card making, and origami... in this instance I decided to surprise dear James when he returned home, I think he was pleasantly surprised :)

Origami paper is very fun indeed, so brightly coloured and versatile.
I think this is why I'm using it for my animation, which will be uploaded soon may I add, It's still very ropey however.. but It'll get an upload soon!

"Helps you say it better"

I recently submitted illustrations for H.Samuel's "Helps you say it better," campaign. Here are a few images from the collection.
It's been fun drawing something pretty once again :)

Sketchbook-ing the second.

Feeling inspired is good for the soul.

Sketchbook-ing.

I've started sketchbooking again. Collecting envelopes and random pieces of post it notes for the bigger picture :)
i love making things spur of the moment, I'm glad I've picked up this again.
I'm trying to do a page a day, recording the occurrences I find intriguing.

It's time to dissolve that creepy cake lady.

Hello, It's been a while.
So I developed my initial storyboard forward.. I moved into psychedelics, experimenting with dye and food colouring.Then the effects that this would have on acetate when put into water. The initial development was more about experimenting with the medium as I felt I needed to be decisive about the imagery I used. I thought it was more important what "happened" to the imagery than what it actually was. The idea was to represent a "trip," and explore this journey, drawing upon experiences of others who have taken L.S.D.

I think the results were interesting. I did not expect them to dissolve.

I don't have my finals yet - eek.. expect them shortly. It involves projections.. projections which haven't happened yet. I hope it'll be alright on the night... !

peace out - krispy kreme time. x

Late night experiments.

I've totally destroyed the kitchen. Vegetable oil everywhere, but I'm happy I gave it a go. I'm trying to make psychadelic patterns, and i will succeed.. no matter how much vegetable oil and food colouring i use!

I had my interim Crit yesterday, I think it went well - I didn't like what I showed but I think it gives a good idea of where I'm heading :) I feel very inspired anyhow.

Can you tell what the narrative is from the picture? hmm I really hope so. or maybe I don't... maybe you should be confused? yes you should. :)
