YO YO YO

It's me again and at the minute Im all about puppets, I will post my research on at another date.
The reason I have gone crazy with puppets is because they are so much fun, not onlyh to use but to build and design as well as performing with them too.

the hole proccess is ace, if I could I'd do something like this as a job however there is not exactly a good chance of that so I need to come up with a back up plan.

i must come up with more ideas and such because I want to write a little scrip for my puppets to perform in, it would be a nice end to it and I would quite like to do it for my FMP. thats about the only thing i can think with doing with them but you know only time will tell. hopefully something will hit me in the face and be such a spectacular idea.

I also need to figure out what im going to do with my life. that's pretty high up on the to do list...

otherwise this is all I will hear on my birthday.

happy birthday, your another year older, happy birthday your just getting older happy birthday your life is going know where happy birthday to youuuu...

soooooooooooo it would seem the following weeks will be hectic, with work popping up all over the place.

need to get my priorities right and figure out what im doing when how and of corse why. fun.

So I have watched a few tutorials to see if it is with in myselect skill to actual even think of making a puppet. so I guess we will have to see how it will go!

Life drawing

So this weeks life drawing concluded our lady modle, and next week we will be drawing a man, but here are my final drawings.

I liked this picture and enjoyed for shortning

This picture was certanly not my best as proportions were of as well as the positioning of the body is wrong/ however I do like the shading

 Again this picture is not my faivourate due to the body position mistakes however it was fun to draw

 Now this is my faivourate! It may seem blocky but hte body position is great especially the curves. I like its sence of no identity.

London trip research

At the natural history museum there are variouse things to look at for example, dinosaures, mamules, art gallerys, creepy crawlies, visions of earth, cocoon; images of nature.
All of these exhabitions can help me with my work by giving me insperation or new ideas.

V and A
The main reason for our visit ot victoria Albert museum is the Hollywood costume design exhabition.
This will help greatly in costume, givi

Negative space

What is negative space? Well my class recently investigated this.
Negative space is the area around the object whilst posative space is the space an object fills.

This can be demonstraited in many ways, we demonstrated it by tieing string all around the room. This exercise was enjoyable however it got a little tricky toward the end as we were running out of space to move!

Plaster casting

today we did plaster casts of people.  To do this you must firstly wrap your subject (or victim) in clingfilm. this prevents any of the plaster getting stuck to their skin, this should be avoided as it is painfull.

After the first step the next thing to do is to mix your plaster, making sure it is the correct type for what you are doing.
To mix plaster you must find a bucket put enoougth water in the bucket accourding to how much plaster you want. Then add the plaster until there forms a small island on the top of the water. The next stage is to mix the plaster until it thickens slightly.

Stage 3 is to get scrib a type of bandage like material nd but it in the plaster submerging it to ensure all of the scrib is coverd and then it can be applied to the victim... I mean subject.

Cover the subject until coverd from shest to toe. making sure that they are not incased in the scrib and plaster as they will be unable to get out.

the next step is to wait for the scrib and plaster to dry.

Make sure the models are in a comfortable position before hand, they may want to lean against a wall.

then when th eplaster has set, gently remove it from the model.
