Today we looked at composition, using cool letters. I made a video that you can pause and sift through or enjoy in its wholeness. The true reason I embed this is because wordpress has very strict media limits on blogs, and it was about 100mb of photos down to 0mb in an embedded video. Clever!
Below are the blind drawings I did before, and after, making the paper sculpture.
I guess it’s time for a little critical thinking… what could I use this 3D method for? Phil suggested creating interesting spaces for my characters to move around in. The old docks, and the rock pools, and they bay, might be a really interesting space to visualise in a 3D or abstract way. I also thought, maybe the talent show, or the backrooms.
In my studio work, I’m working very 3D right now. The AR app lets you place planes of image on a 3D space and I am finding it so interesting.
I also very briefly started playing with colour and layering.
One thing I think I could really engage with is surface design. If nothing else, I enjoy patterning clothes on my characters. Maybe I could even take it into textile design and create some really mad work with brightly coloured stencils and paints.
