I believe Cameron has a lot of potential as he has his own unique style of drawing and has some rather interesting ideas for 101 and other papers also. I am very interested in his way of making his Caritas Challenge stop motion, as he will be drawing each frame to create his entire animation. I find this will be a really good idea, as it will show his style of drawing in the form of movement which I believe will look very aesthetically pleasing to view. However I fear that with this idea, he may not have enough time to complete all drawings, I hope this is something he will take into consideration and will find an alternative to be more efficient with the time he has to create his Caritas Challenge stop motion. We discussed what challenges we were going to focus on for the stop motion, he told me he was going to focus on the Slum challenge, as was I. I think that this is a good choice for him as he can use his drawings to target the younger audience and make it seem more approachable to try the Caritas Challenge. In conclusion, I believe Cameron has a lot of potential and I most definitely look forward to see his stop motion when it’s finished, along with other projects to come in the future.

I have decided to create my stop motion with a program/game called Garry’s Mod. I have seen many films, including stop motions been made with it and so much can be done with the correct tools and creativity. I also choose to make it with Garry’s Mod as I believe that it is a unique way to raise awareness for the Caritas Challenge, also as kids find video games/ 3D animation more interesting than reality made videos, I believe it will attract children to be more fond and pay attention to my stop motion, thus increasing the chances of them doing the Caritas Challenge.

My Timeline for my final animation. Showing the process of my identities of my lifestyle combining through movement.

My drawn pattern that I will implement in my final pattern shows the two identity's  I explained in my brief  technology and skateboarding. I have implemented these by adding skateboards around the corners of the drawing. I then added two chips of RAM going through the center horizontally to represent the identity of technology. I then merged the two identity's together by adding what looks like wiring to make them look connected like the way they are in my lifestyle. 

For the second project of 101, Reveal and Shift, I will be focusing more on my lifestyle rather than my heritage. I will be identifying two parts of me that revolve around me and the way I live. These two parts are technology and skateboarding, which are in some way participated in the way of what I do everyday. I have decided to show these two combined with the idea of showing components that represent these to parts. To show my technological side I will illustrate a computer chip which will in a way link to components of skateboarding which will be illustrated by showing parts of a skateboard. If link these two identity's together correctly, I believe it will show my lifestyle in a way that is original, understandable and aesthetically pleasing. 

My Abstract drawing of my glasses.

My in the style of drawing was used with my pair of glasses that I also used in my orthographic, as the both had the same sort of drawing style. I followed the style of a floor plan of a building using a colour scheme of bright and vibrant colours. I then transferred this to make my own floor plan of my glasses with the same use of colours. The even use of each colour makes each drawing equal in attention. From the style I was given I learnt that it is possible to use Architecture like drawing techniques into design of non architectural items.

My final drawing of the orthographic with a close up detail on a section on the drawing.

Progress of orthographic.

My Pattern drawing which followed the colour scheme I had picked. The item I used for the pattern was an eraser.

This will be my colour scheme for my pattern drawing. I have chosen these colours as they work exceptionally well together and also show the transition of cold to warm colours without a feeling of the colours changing too rationally.

These are my 9 final chosen window drawings that I drew which represent items and sections of my desk and what is on it at home.
