So far with using illustrator we have created two images. One attempt of Batman and a second attempt at Mickey Mouse. In this first go, we were just learning how to use the main tools that we'd need to work illustrator. For example 'Pathfinder'. Using this tool we were taught how to merge, cut, crop and reflect shapes. In our second attempt, I tried recreating an image of Mickey Mouse. I was surprised at how time consuming just putting together a couple of shapes was. Just this image took an hour to create and it still doesn't exactly replicate the original.
A really well communicated video essay Ottilie and your voiceover is very effective - you paused in the right places and it flowed well with the visuals. I was also really interested in your thoughts about his visual style and you used the correct technical terms to communicate this. Well done!
ReplyDelete1. The editing is a little jumpy at points and a target would be to focus on getting this to flow a little more - as I said check out the tutorials on the Media Drive.
2. I would have liked to have seen you comment on his music video style in a little more detail and apply it to a wider range of examples from his work.
