The apple of my eye
- September 7th, 2006
There’s a funny story behind this one: I was actually in class doodling this on my arm, hoping “cleverage girl” would take notice. It didn’t work, and I felt like a tool.
Actually I felt like a complete tosser. It haunts me to this very day.
I couldn’t afford canvas, so I thought, “Fuck it, I’ll use cardboard!”.
Behold! A 2-3 second sneak peak from a scene I’ve been working on. It’s been converted to black and white because the colour palette of the animation is still yet to be locked down. I’ve also been experimenting with the overall look of the animation. At the moment, it looks “dreamier” than what I had in mind. I quite like it actually, yet I’m still unsure how the audience will warm up to a possible black and white animation. View the sneak peek here.
Don’t know why I’ve been obessing over images of Mandy Moore recently (she’s even on my desktop!). Been taking my knowledge of blend modes abit further with this one. Original photograph here.
