Week 02
Research
This research is based on websites I have come across in the past and have saved for an occasion such as this. These links will focus on inspiring techniques used by professional artists.
This link has paintings done by a blind man, John Bramblitt. Its not the blind aspect that is the inspiration for my project (although it is pretty inspiring to me in general) but the colours used and how they are used along with the visible brushstrokes, which I love in any art. This is the sort of style I have been thinking for my visual style, visible brushstrokes and bold colours.
This link has painting by Justyna Kopania. These are much like the first link in that she uses very bold brushstrokes to create her works. I particularly love how she paints the sky in most of her paintings. She also uses different techniques for different parts of her paintings it seems, she has bold, obvious brushstrokes in the sky and sea but the ships themselves have more finesse to them.
This is another paint themed inspiration by James Nares. There isn't much to say about these but they relate to me in a more abstract way and I could imagine some of these shapes animating across a scene.
Above is a video where someone has drawn on celluloid paper and placed animation into reality. This isn't something that I think I would try, but as a method of animation it's genius and as part of my experimental animation theme for this project, I am trying to find all sorts of examples I could try out for this project. This particular video has inspired a thought in me though, an idea for my "narrative" is to have lots of small narratives that are pieced together, I would like to create an almost crazy animation where the story leaves the viewers wondering what they have just watched.
This link clever images done by Shamekh Bluwi. Its hard to explain myself so hopefully you have checked out the link. This idea has sparked a thought of my own, I could use the cut out technique, but in photoshop, so I could have a pattern in the foreground with shapes cutout of it (or even an animated character) and there would be a background that fills in the character.
This link is just filled with inspirational photos...but edited. I just really like this idea by Thomas Kellner. The technique is not something I would try myself because its already been done, but the shapes of the building is something I would like to play around with because I find them really interesting.
That's it for this post, By next week, I hope to have moodboards and animations/films up on my blog with some sort of analyses.
