ROBINSON IN SPACE

further methods of storytelling....researching methods of editing together footage and narration

The Man with the Movie Camera(1929)

Watching this film to explore different ways stories can be told....seemingly unrelated footage is edited together with no sound

IT'S SUCH A BEAUTIFUL DAY [clip] - by DON HERTZFELDT

Heres a clip of "It's such a beautiful day". The full animation is over an hour long and is a really good illustration of mental illness... alzheimers....confusions in life....and the way it was made was really interesting...simple drawings but with flashes of photography and light. It was heavy but had a dark humour to it...some of it was relatable and some just really strange.

And this it made me laugh....reminds me of the morion picture app when you make it make random things move like a face...

Fresh Guacamole by PES

Another animation interested me for the same reasons...

Artist Research

Committee Fly Tip Wallpaper

Kusama:

After studying Kusama for my dissertation, I am noticing similarities between her work and my own for example the use of dotty shapes and the all consuming elements....My drawing bellow i think would work printed onto fabric and made into stuffed shapes as Kusama does...

Linda Mccarthy and Stephen Appleby:

Western Spaghetti by PES

Also love this stop motion animation. Again relevent to my own as it puts objects in new contexts

Practical work

 Have been experimenting with collage:

And spent some time in ceramics creating fictional creatures and objects:

I hope to put these objects together in sets scenes like other artists have sone:

Have been experimenting with making things that cast interesting shadows:

Was experimenting with cut outs and translating this ideas in a way that might work in book form:

Went to the Alexander Calder exhibition and loved the wire sculptures at the beginning; helped to inform my ideas about shadows...

Did some portraits with my classmates at the Peckham Pelican for fundraising (mine are at the bottom right corner)

Thinking about the moving image as we have been asked to make a short animation for January:

Again looking at other artists you have made small sets and photographs. I like the idea of taking real life objects and looking at what they would be in a miniature world:

got some recommendations of relevant things to look at:

Visited Key Gardens light trail for my birthday and drew from the memory of it which helped to inform some 3d work and stamp making. I like that we were following a trail and I would like to bring this idea of a path into my fiction project...
