📖 for what my muse would write about yours in their diary. (After Marie and the others rescue Sumire in the third semester) [Violetinfaith]

"So its been 2 weeks since we saved Ribbon. Still a shocker about her whole uh...ordeal. I've come to know her pretty well."

"Her fashion sense is...well it exists, and it needs work. She's also incredibly clumsy. Like, she literally tripped when she jumped. That is a thing now, I guess."

"She has an appetite that I didn't think would surpass Tottoro's, but daaamn Ribbon can eat. Guess that explains her uh...subtle thickness, I guess?"

"Overall, she's a sweetheart that needs a lot of affection and medical help (Mostly mental). Will be looking out for her."

Daisy was out all day today at school. She had a test or something. CNA Certification or something. Suffice to say I got board. So I might have done something really dumb. I went for a walk. Nothing big just a short walk from my place to Providence Place. Just a hop skip and a jump across Providence. Half an hour there and back plus an hour walking around the mall. Managed to snag a Totoro Stuffed animal because when I saw it my heart kept to my throat and I knew I needed it. I am holding it as I type. But the walk was great. Yea it was through Providence but it was quiet. I had only myself and it was damn near perfect. Don’t get me wrong. Daisy is the best caretaker I could ask for. It’s just that she’s... a bit much. And I mean that in the best way possible. But she walking into a room and could be just sitting in the couch with me with no conversation and I still feel like I need to leave the room because her very presence is to loud. Ya know? Idk. I feel like I’m not making sense. I think I’ll go for that walk a bit more. Make it a daily thing. Get one thing, a shirt, a plushy, a note book, at the mall or Arcade or some other place I find along the way. Get me out of the house, maybe get me to heal faster. It still hurts to do much of anything. Guess I never really knew how damaged my veins where when it was still in my system. Yea I think that’s a start to a plan at least.

‘Tis Tottoro

[johnnyogden]

Захотелось что-то зайти в книжный. Ну и, конечно же, с пустыми руками из книжного выйти не получилось 😏

Пришлось долго выбирать, так как денег не очень много, а хочется и то, и другое, и третье. Решено было купить “1984” Оруэлла и “Завтрак для чемпионов” Воннегута. Хотя было много всего интересного для меня, но, выбор пал именно на эти две книжицы. Давно уже хотелось ознакомиться с ними - произведения знаковые, заметные, “1984” и вовсе можно культовой книгой назвать. Сегодня закончу читать “Скафандр и бабочка” Жана-Доминика Боби, потом обязательно посмотрю по этой книге фильм. А после возьмусь за свои литературные новоприобретения!

Не знаю, правда, с какой именно книги мне начать. Наверное, решу это, подбросив монетку 😁

P.S. А на заднем плане милый толстячок Тотторо 🌟

Films made without a camera

Zoetrope and Praxinoscopes, Rotoscoping, Stopmotion, Additive and Subtractive Techniques

Hello! It’s been a while~ 

Over the weeks since my last post, we’ve come across many techniques to create film without a camera (or at least an analog camera). This’ll be a longer post but I’ll be recapping some of what I’ve learnt and what inspires me for each one! 

Zoetrope and Praxinoscopes

Zoetrope, meaning “turning life” in Greek is the early type of animation machine from still images. 

I think the first time I ever saw one of these was in a science museum and has ever since loved them. Though I haven’t looked into it in recent years, I’m amazed about how much they have developed over time. From how people have developed it into 3D zoetropes to even inverted and shadow zoetropes 

One that really interested me was Moray McLaren’s “We Got Time”

The seemingly one take video took my breath away the first time I saw it. It felt like it was truly hypnotizing; drawing you in. I just loved the take on a modern zoetrope and the story telling ability, along with how they were able to stack up several zoetropes on top of each other, then remove it again too.

The other was Christine Veras “Silhouette Zoetrope”

It’s a simple yet intricate piece where the zoetrope is “inside out”. I really liked the illusion it was able to create, with the bird “disappearing” as you move the zoetrope since it is backlit. 

Silhouette Zoetrope

Here is an example of a 3D zoetrope using the Catbus from Tottoro!:

Rotoscoping

I never knew that this technique was called rotoscoping. Rotoscope is when a source material is used and traced over or cut out parts of the image to create a new composite image, kind of like a traced stop motion animation. Now that I think about it, there are a lot of these on TikTok where people animate dance moves onto anime characters digitally. Below is a link TikTok compilations on Youtube:

I always wondered how they were able to do it. But now that I know, I can’t wait to try this out myself - both for this project on analog film or personally digitally. There are also several videos on how to rotoscope on Youtube that it makes me really excited to try. 

Stop motion

Stop motion will always have a place in my heart as it was the first film technique I ever did with claymation and using images taken on burst mode. There’s always more for me to learn and its never ending. I normally use a simple video editor and take the images frame by frame, but we were introduced with an application which would definitely make things easier, so I might fiddle around with that next time as it helps to actually see the onion layering while taking the photos instead of post editing them to line up. 

There are a lot of examples of stop motion animation that I’m interested in - from those done in big picture such as Disney works and movies like Kubo, to shows like Wallace and Gromit, and more with Soupe Opéra as an example:

Soupe Opéra 16 - Soup Opera 16 

Additive and Subtractive Techniques

Last but not least is working on the film itself. There are several things that have been done to the film:

Scratching - leaving marks on the film

Adding - from pasting inanimate objects such as flora, newspaper, washi tape to painting acrylic, markers/ textas, and nail polish → anything can be added so long as it is thin enough to fit into the steenbeck/ flatbed scanner

Note: if whatever you are adding onto the film is flaky, it’s best to tape it down with clear tape (and recut the sprocket holes out again) in case it clogs up the scanner

Bleach - which warps the colours, makes the film faint or even “bleach” it out. It is quite a unique and an unknown medium that gives off surprising results

Aging - can be done in various ways → from sun, leaving in the dark, buried, and more. The only issue is that it does take time to age well

Here are some I did myself!

Working with film without a camera is quite time intensive, however all these techniques have given me insight to what I can do and more. I have several ideas now floating in my head and things I can use for my final, but won’t say anything just yet!
