In need of practise














I need to draw faces/heads for my taxonomy project so i thought i'd take the time to practise drawing them :/
If blogger wasn't absoloutely retarded and I could put these in order I would. Skulls, muscle, side view.

Can people do my questionnaire?

To be honest, i'm not entirely positive that i've worded things correctly, or made it as simple as i could have, but i've tried! I may have to redo it if people just look at it and think 'oh f*!? that', but to be honest, it's not a questionnaire i COULD have done multiple choice, i need in depth answers... SORRY! If you do it, i'll be very grateful! Thanks guys!

Show Reel?

I wish. Blog spot is refusing to upload my video, however you can find it on my YouTube page, address can be found on the side bar to the left. How inconvenient

3D Motion Mixing

There was a problem with the last second of rendering so it cut off where he comes up from his bow - I'll try rectify the problem this week and uplaod again but here it my final attempt before presenting on Thursday. My model, my mapping, moving! I attempted my own brick texture for the wall but it didn't work out, they were too big so i'll have to try again this week. My cameras and light worked though I think!


Graffiti Taxonomy


Whilst researching into my my new Studio project "Taxonomy or Folksonomy", I came across this

- http://www.impactlab.com/2008/04/16/graffiti-taxonomy/



I think it's a really simple but effective approach to Taxonomy, interesting to look at and an interesting concept! Now, If only Huddersfield was as creative as New York.. The only graffiti I've seen around these parts involve obscene words and phallus like shapes.. Hmm..

I'm taking a more complex approach to this Taxonomy project I think, my idea is only in very early development stages but I think It could turn into a really nice project! Watch this space

Oh, and my business cards came this week, I should emphasise there not what I'd ideally like them to look like, however I wanted something to take to New York, just to generally litter around the place so I can say I did, and I wanted them to match my blog at the moment - so they do there job, for now..

Interesting stuff

Found this really interesting!

Especially this particular image



After recently being emailed a brief from University regarding placement opportunity at Disney Interactive Studios, I looked into Alice in Wonderland a lot, I even started the read the original 'Through the looking Glass' book for the first time, I bled the library dry of all related books and had what I think were really good ideas and inspiration from these. The reality of the situation is my marked work at University comes first, before everything, at the moment and I needed to prioritize, so I won't be attempting to apply/work on this brief, especially with a class trip to New York around the same date as the submission of this and many University briefs. However, I think the brief set by Disney was really interesting in it self as a brief and a good insight to the type of work a company might set. In my spare time, whenever I might get that, I fully intend to work on that brief for my own personal growth and experience.
