Research For The Layout/background Brief

Research for the layout/background brief

I found those beautiful pictures St. Paul's cathedral in London very important for my project. To see the difference of the cathedral building through different times.

Can you show St. Paul's throughout time - first photo, during war, how it looked during and after rebuild, etc?

OK, this is St Pauls when built - pre fire of London

Research for horse running cycle

We watched this video for our assignment for a horse running cycle. I found it very helpful for learning how to do it.

Assignment 8 .. The Wave principle

Assignment 8.. The Wave principle.

This is a line test of my work that each frame was shot on twos. The wave principle is used here. I left the eyes and mouth areas empty for the next assignment as we will be adding lip-sync and eye blinks.

Contextual Research 

Layout & Background Art brief 

This is a research I did “moodboard”  for some places in London around the same time that was mentioned in our brief of the following paragraph:

“ He tried to squeeze out some childhood memory that should tell him whether London had always been quite like this. Were there always these vistas of rotting nineteenth-century houses, their sides shored up with baulks of timber, their windows patched with cardboard and their roofs with corrugated iron, their crazy garden walls sagging in all directions? And the bombed sites where the plaster dust swirled in the air and the willow-herb straggled over the heaps of rubble; and the places where the bombs had cleared a larger patch and there had sprung up sordid colonies of wooden dwellings like chicken-houses? But it was no use, he could not remember: nothing remained of his childhood except a series of bright-lit tableaux occurring against no background and mostly unintelligible”. 1984 by George Orwell - page 5/6 

The first picture is the moodboard while the rest just close up pictures for the laces that I mentioned in my moodboard.

P.S. all pictures are used here as a reference for studying purposes only.

Research for the layout/background brief

I found this beautiful video of London which was very inspiring for my project. Yes it's not the same time as the brief but it was good to see London landmarks.

This might be one of our favourite videos of London, it really captures everything that is so incredible about the city. Trust us, you should watch it fullscreen in HD!

Digital painting

Rock wall for Photoshop class. Blending and different brushes on the one on right that I did.
