Oh boy, do I like this app. I like that it makes my regular notebook into a magic moving and singing notebook.
Here are three things I threw together so fast.
So, luckily, I had this video ready to go and the three iterations were perfect for layering fun.
Tomorrow after LoFi printing I am going to sit down and brainstorm ideas to respond to the brief. I wanted to just make more OC art, but I am learning lately that there is always a way to hit that petit pan de mur jaune no matter what.
What frustrates me is that students go so far off brief it can’t possibly be justified, but I still watch the tutors falling over themselves trying to find reasons it’s connected to the brief, and why the work is valid. I feel like this is mixed messages: surely illustrators should be taught to hit the brief before anything else, and be told so frankly. I saw a student in my crit show a collaborative zine about bunny rabbits for something that (I think) was originally about the text A Short Stay In Hell, and for a brief that was not to create collaborative work but to art direct a partner’s. It was a really good zine, but … what? And the tutors had nothing but good things to say about it!
Anyway, rant over. Gonna try to stick with the text and see where it takes me.
