Using paper as a material

todays assignment was paper faces.

In the assignment we had to use paper to make a short animation of a faces. just like south park we put a black piece of A2 paper on the table and use some card paper to create a face.

this is the face i used for my animation.


we went up to the ERC room and took out a camera and went back to the classroom. once we figured out what we wanted our guy to do we then set about making it happen. we took a picture of the face then moved his mouth and eyes and took a picture for every movement the face made.

once we had finished making the animation we then uploaded the pictures into adobe premier pro CS5.5 and added the music selected by the teacher. after the editing was done and the video was finished we exported it and saved it.

The Big Draw

todays assignment was called group work painting

in this assignment we had to work as a group to produce a large scale picture from a smaller picture that we got from the library.

so first we went to the library and picked a famous artist. we decided to go with andy warhol. we found a book of his work and looked through it. we then found a picture of a black and white coke bottle and photocopied it out of the book and went on up to the class room.

we then got a ruler and a pencil and started measuring out all of the sizes for the bottle. once we finished with the measurements we started drawing out the picture



after drawing all the shading ,writing and the lines we went onto label all the parts of the picture that are black. and once we finished the labels. we then started to paint the whole picture.
we then finished the painting and use a marker pen to touch up the edges and correct mistakes.
and here is our final painting.

the original picture was created by andy warhol and this was one a four coca cola art work made from 1961 and 1962.
