Approach: For the week I continued to animate. There's not a whole lot to say in terms of textual-context, but the animation itself is coming along. There is a number of different avenues I can go down in terms of the number of forms to work with on the screen -- though this does cause some headaches with trying to keep track of all the different objects. I've also been notating my readings and I will be using them for later thesis writing. I mainly just want to get the gist of the information out of the sources and find more resources that might be even more helpful than some of my more outdated sources. Choices Made: I know that last week I mentioned I would be working with purely non-objective forms, but I decided to add in more solid forms that make sense to the audience. Mainly, it's just foliage right now as I am not sure what other forms should be involved (perhaps I should take a look at the lyrics of the song), but I am really enjoying the variety of movements, shapes, and explorations from this process. I will be uploading an in-progress video soon, but for now I want to keep it as under-the-radar as possible. Inspirational Sources: I want to consider how color will play an effect on the animation. Though, based on the video below from Ori Toor and Animal Collective, the song is much more dynamic and seems like a necessity to show color rather than not. My animation is focusing more on the forms that are present rather than the color. It's also trying to incorporate the 12 principles as non-objective perceived motion. *Ori Toor - Animal Collective - "Lion in a Coma"* Next Steps:
Keep animating, keep reading, and keep going! I know this is only a single-credit independent study, but it feels like I've been doing about the same work of a 2-3 credit course. I might need to dial it back in order to feel like the amount of time I spend on this is appropriate. -Taylor Comments are closed.
