Summer Project 2020

Animation on Covid 19 So for this part of my project, you could say is an added extra, or perhaps classed as the Motion graphics aspects to this project. that and to show my experimentation and skill progression.  This animation is based on a voice recording interview based on My opinion and views on the pandemic and lockdown. I did this originally for a club I took part in, through my secondary school life, called Unit Radio... here is a link to the website:  http://www.unitradio.co.uk  Basically I recorded the audio at the near beginning of lockdown about March/April time and I then did an animation based on the audio recording. Firstly I listened back to my voice recording, to help me create a storyboard/ guide for creating this animation.  Here is the Storyboard below: Storyboard: Animation A trailer for my Animation Unfortunately this isn't the entirety of my animation sadly, as the animation is quite a big file, which is over 5 mins long! I do apologise for tha...

Animation Summing up 2020 & COVID 19  For this piece of motion graphics, you'll find what you see is what you get with the title for this entry... this footage is for an animation summing up 2020 with the journey through COVID 19 and the Lockdown we encountered .   The inspiration for this animation was on COVID 19, 2020 and on the Time Line research I did for this project. I'd say the target audience for this piece is suited for anyone who had witnessed and lived this pandemic but I would say because there are a couple of swear jar words in this animation I can't say this one is aimed for children, I'd say more teens and up but seeing as you get kids playing GTA these days... who knows- they may like it.  This was a mini animation I wanted to create to experiment and demonstrate my skill progression. The programmes I have used for these animations are Adobe Animate and Premiere Pro .  I used Adobe Animate for creating the footage on the animation (Basically t...

David Shrigley This artist was recommended to me through Paul  at the very beginning of the summer project, because I created a piece of Motion Graphics (A Greyscale Gif) I created this using just Line drawing and my work reminded him of David Shrigley's work. As well as the fact his work is very playful and quite lounge and cheek and this is something I wanted to try and achieve in my work as well. I had a look at his work and I can see why Paul recommended him to me and I also found this guy inspiring to look for instance, his words on his interview about being a successful artist.  Here are some examples of his work below: David Shrigley's work This piece is a classic example of David Shrigley's work, which had inspired me, where he works in greyscale and shows a bit of the the tongue in cheek and humour into his work which is something I want to try and add into my work seeing as this topic of art is to do with David and it's quite depressing and you know quite mo...

Paper-chain With this entry it's going to be about the Paper Chain messages- which is basically a trend when the world was in lockdown where people who maybe workmates or school class mates videoed themselves opening a message which may say something like "Stay Home" or "Stay Safe" etc. then scrunching up the piece of papered passing it onto the next person- almost like a Pass the Bomb kind of thing but instead its like here's a message... Pass it on! To give people motivation and to make them feel better and to try and help lower the mental health issues.  So I decided to do one, with myself and a couple close friends of mine who in which I will be thanking now, Thankyou to the help from  Kimberly Jeffs  and Sanjita Guring.  Thank you to you both for your time to help me create this art!   Here's my superstars Photographed from a feature from the Mini film.
