Weekly Update #8 (March 29th-April 4th)

This post will be short since it's Easter, I didn't do as much work this week but I did a decent amount. I did a whole lot of reading since I've been looking at the most recent issue of 2DArtist Magazine and I also bought 2 older issues from 2014 that seemed interesting.

Digital speedpainting I did of a statue I took a photo of at V&A. Colours are very different from what I usually do which is why I chose to make this piece.

Weekly Update #4 (Mar 1st-Mar 7th)

This week has had a lot of ups and downs. I've had the privilege to go to Rochester for an 'interview' with Phil Gomm, the course leader of the Computer Animation Arts course I'm going to be starting next year. It made me feel even more confident that I chose the right course after speaking with him, I felt like he understood what I was all about and it felt very welcoming and he gave me various suggestions for my FMP. He suggested some sort of stop motion animation and gave me some artists names including Jan Svankmajer (specifically his film Dimensions of Dialogue I've already seen clips from Little Otik), Jiri Barta, and Oliver de Sagazan (I've only looked in depth at Sagazan so far). He also recommended Power of Horror by Julia Kristeva, I'm very happy I felt so comfortable there and I really do think I'm going to love my undergraduate course...I hope so at least.
