First week back in the New Year 2016:

One day project :
Project brief 

Being a visual communicator what we really wants is a surface on which to make a mark.

With the New Year comes a new studio…and a new individual working space. To claim this space as our own we were required to doodle and place imagery and own media that inspire us to expand onto our board space . My board design  included the following :

 MY LUCKY NUMBER (26)
 * SOME FORM OF INSPIRATION (ARTIST SUCH AS HENN KIM AND DANIELLE KROLL)

 * ITEMS THAT REPRESENT ME AS A CREATIVE INDIVIDUAL.
(PINK AND GREY COLOUR THEME , SMALL FINE LINE DRAWINGS)

*MY TARGET SHEET

 We had a complete day and any other free time during the week. we we're required to design the board first before we started decorating.


By starting this small activity it helped me explore the application of marks/tone/colour on to a given surface.
 To successfully create an appropriate outcome, in accordance with design principles and ideas that reflected how i like to work, and to imaginatively explore the brief to the fullest.

Project brief 

We were given a word , chosen at random from which we had to respond to . We had to research and explore ideas based on interpretations of the word .

I explored various media such as photographic image, moving image,and sequel approaches focusing on our brief .
The project is intentionally open and asks us to think imaginatively and creatively. It helped develop my own lines of enquiry to help drive my 3 week project .

Word chosen 'Determination'

For my own project i decided to take the rout of hand drawn animation . I drew a series of images that worked together as an animation after each imaged was photographed 4 times and put together as a sequence .

I later decided to create a stop motion of myself drawing quick images that reflected my word 'determination'.  I chose to focus on a ballet routine due to the continuous pressure and persistence it takes to become a good dancer.
