How to take an artist to the side...

Here be a test in reaction to Adolf Wolfi. It is basically an flash animation reaction to his style of his work and especially the concept of 'horror Vacui ', though the process to create this work went through a many programs.
Here is the process in brief: drew the animation, then scanned these pictures into a scanner then imported these into photo shop, these where then edited with color and B&W levels edited, these where then imported into flash to animate, (in retrospect it would of easier just to do cuts on final cut, but I wanted to use Flash as I have very little of experience of it) it was then transported into final cut where image correction, sound, cutting, cuts and overlays was implemented, and then export as a quicktime.



Though in retrospect more time could be spent on the animation, as the where only eight cells used in each animation, also due to amount of transferring of the main file, the image degraded due to the amount of resizing. The sound was quite good, many piers also did comment favorably on it, though I believe without the sound it would be certainly be weakened as a piece, and I believe this has also been a strength of mine, from the feedback from pervious works.
In context of my final major project this test may have very limited implications, as I'm most defiantly using film due to my lack of drawing skills and the emotive and "real" value, and then so a pure animated sequence would not be desirable, but a combination of the two mediums could be viable, for example I could combine blue screen and animation to give a wild effect, which most likely to be rough looking, though very wild, I could also use overlays of animation to give texture to the film.

It's going down, going down...

Went to a few museums in stroud a couple of weeks ago, but haven't posted anything due myself not being able to make up my mind on what I should write about it. So I'm going to say nothing more...

"Vist, Toe"

Yesterday I witness the Arnolfini to watch a collection of art film, which luckily for my sake, was based upon the idea of dreams as the collective theme through these films. Some I had seen before, but others such as "Le Jeux des Anges" and "Asparagus" I had not.







I was especially taken by "Le Jeux des Anges" as it was not quite like anything I seen before, It was very minimal, often just focusing on two toned textures and objects living and non-living which hold often one attribute of what it was based upon. I most study further into "Walerian Borowczyk" work, and most likely influenced and apply his style on both my sculpture and film.
