Audience and Communication- more character design

This is the character that I am using for the final animation, I used fabric and cropped it to shape by using photoshop, I then used replacement animation in a cut out style by using After effects.





































children love to dress up and even more the idea of being able to magically change their clothes, whether its the style or colour. I chose to end the cloth changing with a witches outfit as it fits in with the theme we are going for 'magic'

uni life drawings- we produced a series of life drawings; working on different time lenghts, I found that although some pieces are unfinished it is recognizable to the posture and is more affective as it's concentrated more on the form and positioning of the person

life drawings from collage

an old collage project using a lighting company for my brief. I made the lamp by using resin and glass/mirror, then I added the cones and balls using thread and glue

An illustration that I created for a fashion magazine called International Textiles. I created the dress and photographed a model wearing it, I then manipulated it using photoshop

A collage project using the collage hair and beauty departement for my brief, I was mainly experimenting with different mark making and texture

my potfolio

This is an old collage project that I created using screen prints and ink onto muslin fabric, I used the typography layout in the style of David Carson having the text running off the page





















This is an illustration that I created using 'water' as my starting point, I used this to create pattern, image and texture for my piece. I used pen drawings and chalk drawings for the imagery and then completed the rest of the piece digitally

3D design of my character, i am thinking about having my character in stop motion so this gives me an idea of how she may look

here i have created collage by using plastic heat bond (carrier bags)

creating simple collage to create shape and form

Audience and Communication

I have decided to create a little girl for my character because as a child i loved to dress up in either my nans clothes or what ever i could get hold of. Through out the animation the personality of the girl will depend on the clothes that she is wearing as these will change; a team member has decided on a magician for her character, he will cast spells on her changing her clothes to what ever she wants to be.

Audience and Communication- character design... little girl

we are making an animation promoting animation @ BCU. The animation is aimed at 7 year old children so we have used the influences of a child as a starting point. As a group we decided to use 'magic' as our theme as children love the idea of being powerful and magical.
