STYLE



"PEACE" expressed in 2D ink, watercolour animation

"PAPER" as 3D paper cranes (done in Maya)- expresses the importance of a paper as material which helped to develop written word and human education, and whose importance is more and more underestimated in today's digital era- it alos expresses the idea of NATURE

"HANDS" done as live action footage composited over the animation- express the idea of beauty of human touch, tactility, emotional communication, hand crafts and arts

Interaction between the last two- BOND between NATURE and PEOPLE- environmental concern


INSPIRATIONS


Dave Mc Kean (Neil Gaiman)- interesting mixture of mixed media- ink drawing, photography and painted backgrounds



PSYOP- interesting storytelig (synthetic time, not traditional)
exchange of perspective angles (side, top, bottom angle)
distinctive visual style











Traditional and modern shadow puppetry- Nine Inch Nails music video for song "Hurt" with scrim (very thin layer of fabric in front of performers, film projected onto it) - expresses the idea of light = life, transparency= fragility of life, sound perfectly fits the visual material shown.Traditional Japanese art- ink, waterclour drawings and woodcuts
Litography- stone print- the prints are eep changing in a proces of printing, this is one of thechinques which allowes to transform photography into the beautiful crayon and watercolour effects.

Shadow puppetry also reminds me of my childhood, it was just something we liked to play



Traditional Japanese ink drawings, watercolours and woodcuts

and LITOGRAPHY- stone print- a great opportunity to transform photography into a beautiful crayon and water colour effects, besides the whole process of litographic printing seems like a sequence of animated frames as the pictures slightly differ from one to another print. This could be a great inspiration for backgrounds.
