Hi, so... here we are, start of a new term and possibly the most pivotal moment for choosing my chosen pathway and understanding it, and I go and get sick. Great. So; sorry for last weeks absences whoever is reading, I've have had flu or something. Not nice; nor recommended. So this is late, but better late than never. I have been asked to identify and define what, at the moment, I am doing creatively to further myself and develop into a practitioner of the arts.
Well, so far I with my classes at the moment studying the flash programme, making our own quiz, which is difficult, not because of the complexity of the programming but of the creativeness or rather lack-of behind the questions and responses and trying to make it new, interesting and engaging for the players.Other than that, I'm currently creating my own little avatar sketch, something as a recurring theme I could play with for a while in all my future drawings and works, much like a artistic signature. I do this alongside doing personal art and doodles which I have been doing for many years now, and currently I'm trying to discover my own style, as I believe that everyone has a unique aspect to their work, just depends how hard you look for it I guess.
I watch many films, always looking for new talent, recently I discovered Darren Aronofsky particularly for his use of stunning visuals (above) [The Fountain, 2006]. Have always loved Tarantino, even his lesser known stuff such as "Death Proof" from his grindhouse days.
In the future I hope to accomplish more animations, and have a better understanding of the art forms that interest me such as japanise anime, the style of it, and why it is effective in its method.
