Stop Motion Throwbacks

In one of my current modules, we're looking at stop motion. This isn't the first time I've played about with animation, or specifically this type of animation, so I thought I'd share the two animation pieces I've done before. My first crack at animation was on my art foundation in my photography/film module. Unfortunately at the time I thought only saving it through the tumblr account I used for the entire project was a good idea - nevertheless here it is - I explain more about the piece on the post. The second piece of animation I have created was last year at my previous university. With that piece we were given an obscure word which we had to explain the meaning via the method of stop motion animation, only using the letters in that word. I won't tell you the answer as (hopefully) you can guess what it is.



In regards to my current project, we're actually doing something similar. Over the Christmas break we had to buy a second hand hobby book and only using the letters of the title of the book, visually represent what the book is about. I'm currently going through and editing around 500 images to create three separate outcomes. Although the editing itself is fairly straight forward, I'm peaking at 1-2 a minute so thus very time consuming - stay tuned for those pieces!

High.

For my FMP we were given the word 'high' and were let loose. After juggling with a few ideas, I ended up on exploring 'higher being' - which fitted perfectly with my trip to Pisa and the cathedral there. I'm submitting four black and white digital photographs, they're all set and ready to go, just need to get them to print, and get critiqued on Friday, eek!! Here's a sneak peek for you...

Terrible Upkeep.

Hello old friend, I know I always forget to update this thing, so here we are. An update. I've been super busy with uni (I shall be putting up some of my work from this term this week to prove it, promise.) along with trying to post regularly on my new little venture with my friend Emma whilst trying to get back into using Tumblr and you know, sleeping, eating, all that fun stuff. A few fun little tidbits, my accommodation for my Pisa trip is booked, I'm all ready for that Tuscan gem come May. I've booked my ticket for IMATS with Emma which we plan to vlog which is very exciting. I also managed to get Beyonce tickets for April so that'll be amaaaaazing. I'm slowly but surely getting my travelling plans for the summer in order and looking into housing for next year so I'll be a real grown up which terrifies me a little/a lot. Right, ramble out of the way, here's a few black and white snaps I took of the gritty city for a project I have abandoned!
