The Beast

I was looking for a new artist to analyse for graphics, and came across this animated poem, illustrated by Shynola.

ode to jeff scher

I’ve been experimenting with what to do for my final piece. I’ve decided on an stop start Illustration piece.

The drawing part of this took me two hours to do, which is annoying since it’s like 5 seconds of video.

However, my final piece will be about 900 frames, which will all have to be drawn, scanned in, edited, and put into a movie. yay me...

Inspiration

I love Jeff Scher’s wonderful and painstakingly time consuming animations.

Motivation Monday

I’m kind of continuing this post from last weeks, with Lois Greenfield’s work being the motivation, and this being the outcome of that motivation.

I’m so happy with how these came out. It was my first time using the studio, and Bengi and I just went in and shot for about an hour. She got to practise her moves and I got some work done. Win Win.

Isn’t she a brilliant dancer?

Graphics on a Sunday...

This would usually be on a Saturday, but I’m already a day behind so its a Sunday instead. Unfortunately there are no days of the week beginning with a ‘G’, so my alliteration streak has had to come to an end.
In graphics we’ve been working on screenprinting, and since I’ve been going video mad this week, I figured another one couldn’t hurt. So here’s some examples of screenprinting for you to watch :)

Motivation Monday

So today I’m starting a new rota type thing for my blog, it should help me get into the swing of things, and make sure I’m posting semi-interesting things, semi-regularly.

As the title says, today is Motivation Monday. (I got a bit carried away with alliteration with the posts, so look forward to that!) Basically, I shall post something that either motivates/has motivated me, be it an artist, a blog, a song, anything really, or something that can motivate you, for example a DIY or something.


Today I’m posting Lois Greenfield. She is a commercial and fine art photographer, specialising in movement. I found her whilst searching for dance related artists to use for my graphics coursework. I came across her, and I really loved her photos! She is amazing!

I love the strength shown by the human body in her photos, some of the positions are just insane, and she captures them so well!

Check out her website :)
