A Director / Animator that I have been following for many years now. His animations a much loved, especially by me, and I hope to get better acquainted with the process he used in his works.

Animation by Me 5 Years ago

Looking through old Youtube Vlogs from years ago, I found this animation I made and the creature's I designed and couldn't believe how long ago there creation was. 5 years!! Obviously I need to get

back in the practise if I'm going to be experimenting with animation again.

The Dot and the Line: A romance of lower Mathematics

''I'm steady, Consistent, I know where I'm going...' say's the Line.

 

This animation by Chuck Jones (also known for his work with Looney Tunes) alone is enough reason to love shapes even in its simplest of form. In a small part of me, it even evokes a love for maths but not enough for me to do some small fractal equations.

Please watch and enjoy.

 

Lego Advert - Tom Cooper

An animation that has never failed to make me smile. I have always loved Lego, with every bone in  my body, I have loved making basically anything from people to helicopters and taking lots of stop motion pictures with Harry Potter. Many an a hour play with colours and characters have I spent with the stuff. 

 

So here's is something I think everyone can relate to and I hope will make you smile.

 

Animation -Nige Coan & Ivana Zorn (The Mighty Boosh)

Animation has always been a large part of my life and always will be as I see it. Tale of the Crack Fox and Voodoo Scat are just a few of the animated back stories by Nigel Coan and Ivana Zorn who helped create for 'The Mighty Boosh' series. They both came from an Illustrative and Graphic Design background.
There are also illustrations by Ivana Zorn  in 'The Mighty Book of Boosh' (she’s illustrated the lyrics to many-a-crimp specially for the book), paintings, drawings and sketches by Fielding and Barratt, a short graphic novel by college-chum.

What I find most interesting is how Nigel Coan, especially through the 'Noel Fielding' Luxury Comedy', was able to bring the imaginary world of Fielding's on to the digital screen. I know him more for his creation of the infamous character, The Moon, made up of only a can of shaving cream lathered across Noel Fielding's face.

'Talking to the Soul' For which I will Investigate!

Using found imagery from magazines or .. from any where I find them. And, to follow the Editorial genre of illustration, I was this tiny piece of newspaper with a little quote, 'Talking to the Soul', which is a bit deep and very spiritual, in my opinion.

There are many route I could follow with this:
*Eyes - considered as the gate to the soul
*Religion - Faith
*Dream - unconscious narrative
*Tales and stories - provoke emotions through written words, talking to the reader of worlds more exciting than our own that we get lost in them.
*Spiritual - cleansing the soul, relief
*Love - purging of the soul, uncontrollable.

Then when I split the quote apart....

'Talking', I think of communication:
*Speech
*Sign language
*Body Movement - Gestures
*Morse Code
*Telephones....

'The Soul', I think of Spirit's free and locked within living bodies:
*Animals
*Humans
*Nature
*Life and Death
*Faith
*Religion
*Strength and lack off
*Heart
*Brain
*Yoga
*Breathing
*Beginnings
*Endings
*Earth
*Space
*Heaven vs Hell

I love this quote, there is so much to find and play with, the trouble is what to choose?
Ps, the picture above is my sources of inspiration from a site call 'How to be a Goddess', full of interesting bits and prints.

Fashion- Dress making with Paper

 Fashion was surprisingly fun and interesting as we explored how to create unusual form that didn't have to follow the common conception of how 'Fashion' must be - roughly translated as, it doesn't have to be obviously beautiful, just visual intriguing.

So here is arange of photos to which demontrates the development of ideas and experimention with where shapes and forms could be placed so as to create an effective piece/s.
