Damp – Antonia and Progress

Below is the new progress of DAMP. I actually made this progress yesterday, being busy today with opt module research and pottery and a big tesco shop. Life comes at you fast! Something had been bothering me about the earlier set shot: the pencil was quite transparent, and didn’t have the oomph that I thoughtContinue reading “Damp – Antonia and Progress”

Lo-Fi Printmaking – Research

Ok, I’m eating a Pita Bread with mango chutney because it is literally the last carbohydrate in the flat: time to do some research. I should probably start by specifying some themes I’m really interested in. Right now, it’s looking to be indulgent historical and fantasy fashion. My characters are always interacting, but I’m tryingContinue reading “Lo-Fi Printmaking – Research”

Visual Diary – I Said KNEEL.

Over the last 24 hours, music again has taken on that fantastic quality I need to make something completely new and inspired. Last time this happened it lasted for months, but I’m learning just to ride out the waves. This is Mitzi. Mitzi is a spoiled King in my Kingdom!Au, and is also the “King”Continue reading “Visual Diary – I Said KNEEL.”

Damp – Intro Sequence and Poster

I worked hard at biting into some of the meat of this project today. There’s just … so much of it. I had hoped to miss the audio lesson today as we were told it would be Monday, but they’ve pushed it back to Thursday! Bums. Anyway, I got more done at home than IContinue reading “Damp – Intro Sequence and Poster”

Visual Diary – The Court

A self indulgent doodle on top of some colourful seaside homes. The household that Techo, Mitzi and Ludwig live in becomes known as the Court once Antonia joins the crew and it makes all five of them. I love the idea of blending my universes with their modern reality. When they move into a second,Continue reading “Visual Diary – The Court”

Visual Diary – Sonnet 29

Outfit inspiration taken from Court Jester outfits. In the Kingdom!Au, Mitzi is King and Antonia is a jester – so the dynamic of Mitzi kneeling to kiss Antonia’s hand has me absolutely reeling.

Damp – Raindrop Shot

Things I learned today: How to alter the position of multiple clips at once: right click “Motion”, click “copy”, select another group of clips, click “edit”, click “paste”. Things I did not learn today: how to relocate lots of media at once from the same folder. It says it should do it automatically but itContinue reading “Damp – Raindrop Shot”

Damp – Mould Texture Experiments

I would desperately like to talk about my process, but it’s 00:14 and Glad You Came by the Wanted is playing out of my phone speaker next to me, so this is no environment for articulate thought. Come on Eileen has started playing now. I searched “songs to take a long shower to” on spotify.Continue reading “Damp – Mould Texture Experiments”

Visual Diary – Knights, Stars

Something wasn’t clicking today. Maybe I was all arted out! Ideas for the next things to try will be drawing from life and figure drawing, maybe with ink because I’m loving how tactile and flexible it is.

BBC Content Call – Great British Menu

I saw in an email the other day that the BBC are asking the Brighton School of Art for a 15 second pre-title animated sequence. For context, the two things the brief asked for specifically is imagery tying in to Paddington (as it’s his 65th birthday), and to feature the four presenters. Below is whatContinue reading “BBC Content Call – Great British Menu”
