Character Brief

We were given various descriptions and told to create a character
My character wore a lot of scarves, lived in a rooftop jungle, had six legs, looked like a tiger and had various robotic/cyber limbs... It was a strange experience!
His name is Oliver and he is pretentious, with a very long tail.

Silent Book Brief

So we were given a couple of weeks to create a storyboard for a Silent Book (basically a graphic novel) and a few news stories to base our books on - for those of us who are not good at storytelling...
I chose to tell a story about a stolen Russian church because it amused me too much as a concept!

Conflict Brief

Conflict Brief for a small exhibition - I focused on conflict between elements and used a simple (if maybe slightly cliche) image of two fists clenched as if ready to punch someone...
More of my work

Portrait Brief

Did a portrait brief the other day - I worked with Alice and made a few images to show various bits of info about her. She loves San Francisco, feels like Mary Poppins when she carries an umbrella and loves Clean Bandit (and her favourite colour is blue)

Track Brief

Guess who chose Viscom!!!??
Have now finished the first official VisCom brief - Track
Teamed up with Nat, and we made an animation in response to the music playlist we were given.
We chose Perpetuum Mobile by the Penguin Cafe Orchestra (pretty song but am now a little sick of it after listening on repeat for two weeks...)
Our animation was stop-motion 5fps, and we hand-drew each penguin for every frame and then had to cut them out by hand because we haven't got laser cutters. It hurt. I'm really good at drawing penguins now though! Loved Nat's set building too!!

Animation is here

Type Brief

Now I'm too torn between 3D and VisCom after the Viscom taster week of playing with typography which is incredibly fun, and complex. (I ran out of ideas way quicker than I'd like)
My favourite concept was "Strip" - go figure...

Light Brief

3D taster week! One of my favourites because we got to play with light!!
I enjoyed designing ALL THE THINGS! Couldn't make them all but that is besides the point...
