A day in the park 2011

 

This piece depicts the escapism of my own imagination as my work has become more about enlightenment and romanticism. I thrive to highlight beauty in animation as i believe the music is the most powerful source examples such as Fantasia, Bambi, Len Lye are used to create an atmosphere or emotional response to either the characters or images place in front of the screen.  Please feel free to watch and comment. :)

Experimental Animation

 

This is an experimental piece i made using stop motion, which I still think is not finished. I trying to create an atmospheric approach concentrating on the materiality of objects and textures of the soil, however the work itself is very sketchy as I'm interested in the drawn aspect of the work.  I have drawn into the soil creating images of nature and growth as it mainly focuses on environmental meanings.  It is very quirky yet i still think the sense of narrative could be more present. There is a element of symbolism, childhood and nature in the piece as I've mainly combined image with sound.  Yet i still feel like i could refine the piece a bit more. Please feel free to comment as your comments mean a lot to me :)  

Untitled 2011

 

This is an experimental stop motion piece I'm working on at the moment discussing the relationship between a animals perspective from inside a woodland.  I wanted to imagine what sort of perception you would get from the animals eyes or sounds which would cause threat or danger towards the creature. I chose stop motion because it has a static feel which is quite jumpy and energetic.  There is also a sense of stillness in the work with the different mixture of editing.  Its still needs a lot of work as its mainly a test.
