Final Submission for Jim

I love editing videos so finding out we had to do so for Jim made my whole experimental experience much better :))

Used Adobe Premiere Pro (Premiere Pro Supremacy)

Final Submission for Wendy

I thoroughly enjoyed making these postcards, despite the long painful process :D

As an outcome, the whole theme, I really liked!!

Experimental Animation

Final Submission 3

My favourite :)

I really liked the simplicity here and the bright colours. Maybe I just needed that serotonin.

Experimental Animation

Final Submission 2

I used Blender on Cycles Render.

Smoke is not broken, it's a feature.

- Bethesda, all the time.

Experimental Animation

Final Submission 1

I used Blender on Cycles Render (Rest in Pieces, Laptop, you served me well)

Animation is my main course and so working with Blender just made it a whole lot easier and so much more fun. In fact, I can't wait to utilise what I learned on here into my animations!!

Contemporary Art

Here I am experimenting with the Polygonal Lasso Tool in order to get me those sharp cut outs, featuring a stock image in order to play around and create interesting and unique shapes for my postcards.

This is the process which normally took place, the only new feature which I had to use was the 'rasterize type' feature. This was made a whole lot easier by the amazing Ctrl + X and Ctrl + V quick inputs to speed up the whole thing.

The computers today is really amazing (and it's not all the time computers and laptops stays stable and does not crash whilst your work is unsaved and almost finished*)

*Literally on the edge of completion

In the creation of my postcards, I also utilised the scratch and spray paintbrushes in different colours and layers to grant them different effects.

In order to get my drips to look more realistic, I had to use the magic tools and cut out tools.

As a finishing touch, I created a 'difference' cut out on the bottom right to sort of grab your attention and create a unique aspect in the postcard and also a more ominous atmosphere

Photoshop, experimenting with the different settings. These are the main features which I used. The foliage paintbrushes and the different kinds of filters.

In my opinion, this really worked to create my desired effects!

Contemporary Art

Before working on Photoshop, I did some physical planning in my sketchbook in order to create templates which I would use in my final postcards, imagining how I would cut out and place my pieces of work whilst making space for the text.

Contemporary Art

Here I have my scanned images of my physical work in my sketchbook. I had cut-outs from Banksy which I then mixed with other things. I made this my own through the typography in front and of course editing in photoshop along with the sharp cut-outs which of course sort of created a new story within these already amazing paintings.

Contemporary Art

The theme I went for is something along the lines of minimalism mixed with graffiti to create what I call 'Minifiti'

Cool name right?

Anyway, I wanted to go with a dark tone, sort of create a a more impactful message with the theme of my work.

This was heavily inspired by Cornbread who stood out for something, which was his name; iconic. Also inspired by Lady Pink whose colours really splashed out and showed out which would really catch your attention and cause you to pay closer to detail.

I had essences of Banksy in my original work which I used in order to create what you would see as the cut-outs on the postcard.

Contemporary Art

Creating Wendy's Postcards, I used the editing software called Adobe Photoshop.

I had small knowledge of the application before I started, so I had to explore my options. Though I knew what the features did, I had to dive deeper and research what more I can do with it.

It's not a big brain thing but a right brain thing, I had think creatively, which I have not done before.

But here we are messing with the filters, toggling 'overlay' or 'luminosity' which is the one I went with to create a theme, the others were too bright or gave out too much colour which I did not want as I wanted a darker theme.

However, to create those cutouts, I used the polygonal lasso tool to cut out my physical work which I scanned using Camscanner (Refer to earlier post on Tumblr)

Experimental Animation

Following the export and finalisation of the object shaders, I then polished the work and looped the whole thing via Premiere Pro.

Easy, quick and simple.

My maths teacher in Year 4 once told me

'The laziest Mathematicians are the greatest because they'll always find the easiest way to the solution"

I'm no mathematician but I do like to find the solution to my hard struggling questions.

Experimental Animation

For my animation, I wanted to try and work with the Lattice Displacement feature which I used in my main animation as this only stretched it to random shapes which looked worst and more basic than interesting in my opinion.

Of course it worked in my animation principles class, however, I think here it does not work as well I expected sadly so I deleted it from existence.

Sorry lattice, you were a good son to me.

Experimental Animation

For my other animation, I wanted to work on 3 cubes which would be creating a calm atmosphere.

Very simple idea, however, I chose this idea because I believe that it would work the best when looped.

Here we are just adding the music using the sequence editor and setting up the camera for the final animation export.

Originally, I intended it to be just a 2D animation, however I did angle my camera in order to show off the other sides which adds more depth to the flat scene.
