What I need to do in time for submission: create mock up’s of what my idea is and annotate and talk about what would happen graphics wise on the screens in the club.
- Try and get in touch with Sam Meech
this is something I have tried to do this week but I haven’t had or heard a reply from him in aid of guidance of getting an Isadora patch for submission.
My very first hand drawn animation.
This is a 21 drawing animation in which I used the light box to aid me with this. This was done way before the coloured eye animation.
I had troubles with doing this animation due to paper stocks and not being able to trace it out, I think I tried 3 or 4 times so this took quite a while to sort out.
- This is the animation I used to put into Isadora to learn...
Doubt.
I doubt that I am going to be finished in time at all. I haven’t really made or produced much work during this project due to time management of other projects.
I am going to try my hardest for the presentation and at least try to propose my idea visually and comunicate to the group my final intentions for the work.
This is the incredibly short animation I have made using my own drawings and adobe flash.
I’m not overly pleased with this animation but I did take a lot from it as it’s really nice to see your own work animated. I think due to the short length of this video I am definately going to have to add a few more drawings into it and see it I can neaten it up a little bit.
Next Step...
I am going to create an animation incorporating my own artist style and see how it works out using Flash.
Isadora - My thoughts.
Isadora as a piece of software is awesome, it’s really great to think that somebody could interact with something that you have made.
- My own personal worry is that it maybe more work for me than I need as Animation and animating my work may have been enough
Presentation and presentation feedback.
I feel like the presentation I made about my work so far and my progress went pretty well as I didn’t have a great deal of work to show.
In the presentation I highlighted elements of my own work that I could work with and what I would want to do with them aswell as having my pieces of work to show to the class.
I was honest and realistic in my presentation saying where I was up to and what...

What to do next...
- I am now going to create an illustration in keeping with a popular/current song that would be played in clubs.
- Trace elements and work on the drawing of these elements.
- Animate them using flash.
- Apply to Isadora
— I am (from now) going to do the above whilst documenting my sucesses, possibly some failures and my general development of my work.
This Project...
I am really happy that my change in idea for this project has really changed my mind about it as a whole. I am really excited to start animating and drawing and using Isadora (even though I am going to face some difficulties) on my own works and creating a really fun, imaginative, bold and colourful night club visual.
Learning Agreement.
What do you want to do ?
-For this project I am setting myself my own personal brief, for this brief I have opted to animate aspects of my own illustrations through flash and then apply them to isadora. When my animations are in isadora I am going to set the animated aspects of my drawing (I am yet to create) to the likes of sound and motion etc. – when people are dancing the piece of work...
Project Draft Proposal.
Project Title: Nightclub Visuals.
what technology, craft or processes do you wish to investigate / investigate further ?
Flash animation and Isadora.
what do you want to do ?
For this project I would really like to interactively animate aspects of my own illustrations through flash and isadora. Firstly I am going to create an illustration and then scan it into the computer and then...
The Self Initiated Brief...
My initial idea for this brief was to look at healthy eating but I didn’t have a clue what to do for it. I was getting really caught up in the idea of the piece having a big meaning or purpose rather than opposed to having fun and exploring the software in a fun and experimental way. I just wasn’t enthusiastic about it at all.
