me, myself and I

My idea. Instead of doing something really serious, I want to do a image response (as I don't really have any image work in my portfolio) where I create a character that is scared of everything. for instance they be scared of Clowns, lightning etc thats on a A5 piece of paper as you can see below.

Now I'm not a 100% on the idea of it! I like the idea and the illustrative way I've done it but i think more thinking is needed before giving it in for the exhibition.

A 2 week project "Panic"

Great opportunity for us as a year to do a exhibition in a gallery, based in the centre of Manchester. Maximum exposer for our degree show in June. The brief, to create a piece of no more than A2 size, motion or a book, under the theme of Panic. It's all to do with our response to the word and it's in 2 weeks time. A short brief that I can do well.

Tonsillitis is a pain!!

Since February, I've been poorly and had no voice. After a billion tests and 5 weeks of being sick, they finally found out what the problem was! I've had tonsillitis for a year (who knew that could happen) and in 6 weeks time I'm getting them out : ) Sounds a bit... well gay.. but having not being able to do as much work as I wanted/needed to do this term has made me so frustrated and realize that I'm going to miss being in university, in the studio doing work. Having people around to bounce ideas off and seeing some work in progress helps you to do your work! I will miss that a lot when we leave and hope I find a place to work at that feels the same!

It's been 7 weeks and I still have a husky voice but feel better than I have been. I have one project nearly done (I'm just about to talk about that one), the dyslexic project is half way through the experimentation stage and I have 6 weeks to do ad least 2 more projects. I'm giving a warning to you, my family and friends. I'm still alive, just need to get things done!!

Alice and wonderland... finally seen!!

I had a longly waited for this film! It was hipped so much and yet I found myself telling people "yeh it was good.". I thought I'd be coming out saying it was amazing but I didn't. The design of it all, costumes, images were all great but i found myself thinking that it wasn't needed to be in 3D. I could have easily appreciated the same things if it was in 2D. The story was good as well but I found Alice a bit boring. She just didn't have much facial expression and felt she was dull, but maybe she could have been told to play the character like that so that the other characters would look more. Good film though and would watch it again, just not as amazing as I thought it would be.
