AR project #1
for this assignment, i made an animation on procreate. i started this illustration months ago and hadn’t felt inspired enough to finish it. last week, i came to the guest speaker lecture late so i sat in the back and decided to draw (i was still paying attention, promise). i managed to finish most of it by the time the hour was over.
i go through what feels like such extreme creative blocks with my illustrations. sometimes when i run out of ideas, i feel like i’ll never have them again. when i finally get over that and really get in the zone, it becomes physically uncomfortable to step away from the piece. so the hour was over, i had no choice but to put my ipad away. imagine my relief when i learned that we had to create a poster and that it could be of anything. thank you stephanie! i drew until i had 10 minutes to get to work (i was late).
this wasn’t the original animation, it was a lot shorter at first but it just didn’t feel complete. i really wore down procreate creating the final version. i don’t know how many frames there are, i lost count after 40. i lengthened it in aftereffects and added sea, swallow me by the cocteau twins and harold budd. i love this song. i worked on it all weekend, i might work on it some more, but for now, here she is.
