#slimtime

I have chosen to create a 30 second animation for the poem entitled Q and this is part of the presentation that I have created to present my idea. I chose this idea as I have been advised that it will challenge me and show my progress and that I am not just a one trick pony.

I had created a 1 minute film for my first year and that was based on a love story between a potato and a tomato. If I had chosen the poem entitled Cake, I would be creating an animation similar to my first year film.

As well as using Sylvain Chomet as inspiration, I have also received a lot of inspiration from this short film entitled “slimtime” directed by Bertrand Avril, Pierre Chomart, David Dangin and Thea Matland. 

This 8 minute movie challenges societies view on body image and how society seems to try clone females for them to all have the same stick figures. 

I created these vector designs of the Oreo and the glass of milk to see what i’d be working with if I were to choose this poem. Once I created them, i realised that this wouldn’t be a difficult challenge for me so I think that aided to my decision of choosing Q.

Slimtime.
