It's Only Science If You Write It Down

My final animations for the #Regenerate project!

I’m really proud of how they came out - they’re way smoother than I thought they would be! Especially with the colouring. It was a damn near finish too - had to stay up far too late to get it all working before the exhibition, but it was super successful and I’m really glad everything worked out.

The more recent animations!! Still with no colour or text!! And the exhibition is in 2 days!!! But it’s okay!!!!!!!!

More animations! Or alterations of the same one, whatever

One has more frames, the other is aligned better, and, ah, to be fair they’re missing a bit of detail that I SHOULD add buuut, eh. It makes sense as is for now.

Two versions of the same animation - not sure which one I’m gonna use though! Looking at the second one it actually looks like I’m missing a few clips, but I can sort that out if that’s the one I end up using. 

Will hopefully add some colour and probably some text in the future if I have time - for now this gets left.

I like the look of this animation, but as I’m going to be doing my animation on photoshop I doubt it’ll look as smooth.

Some animation tests from the other day!

I wanted to figure out what my animations might look like if they were done digitally - the storyboard will be done in pencil in my sketchbook and the initial drawings for the animation will probably be done by hand, but I may go further with it afterwards and put it all through photoshop. We’ll see how the time goes I guess!

The photos from the Persona costume photoshoot!

I, uh, couldn’t see at all through my cardboard mask, so I couldn’t correct my costume at all and annoyingly nobody said anything or fixed me up, but, hey, still some pretty good images.

Forgot to upload these “final” images of my clay sculpture!!

I’ve gotta say, it went really damn well. Plasticine clay is actually the best thing.

Magazine mood board!!! More page spreads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!??!!!

I told myself that i would make no more mood boards, that I would draw the images I was looking at instead. And then when trying to draw them I instead began trying modern interpretations immediately, and realised that in order to record everything properly I was going to need to make another mood board.

Again.

ANOTHER MOODBOARD ABOUT CLOTHING, this time looking at the actual clothing of the time. Wikipedia puts the era of Art Nouveau at around 1890-1910 so that's where I looked at. As usual, there were very few options for the male fashion, so I'd like to have a go at tackling that when making the catalogue.

While I am doing a lot of research into what was around at the time, and what style is used in the typical Art Nouveau images (trying to remember also that I should try to include the wear from the nouveau of other cultures, as it was not a purely UK movement and effected much of Europe, but under different titles, hence my surprise at the difference between Designer's styles when researching into artists), I need to also make sure I can try and incorporate the more modern clothing styles.

After all, this isn't steampunk - I want to create something that could fluidly transform from what we are today into what could be tomorrow, so nowadays fashion - and ease of clothing, I mean jeez, petticoats - MUST intertwine with the style associated with nouveau. Plus, everything associated with Nouveau is just so damn fancy, and so bloody upperclass.

A complation of my research today into perhaps what a Solarpunk lifestyle would look like. Hopefully making it a long image will allow for side scrolling, as I'm aware tumblr as issues with long images sometimes.
