Type Of Dancing

The type of dancing i am going to be using which i feel goes best with my music is ballet.



Research On Ballet Animations 












These three animations are all on ballet and this is the type of dance i am going to use for my animation as i feel it fits in well with the old english style i have gone for.

Research On Dance Animations



This animation is very clever the way that both dancers come alive from the one line and made to look very real.






This video relates to my storyboard as it is of a dancer waking up. This video is very flowing and uses a lot of different lines and structure.







This animation uses a lot of different shapes  even though it uses a plain body structure for my dancer in my animation i want mine to be a lot more simple.

Teacups

Using my descriptive word 'craft' i am going to make teacups using paper mache.


  • I cut out a template of the size i want my teacups, which includes the teacup, handle and bottom. I copied it four times onto cardboard (cereal box).


  • I cut out the pieces.
  • I first used the main part which is the long teacup i folded the teacup so the bottom sections met together i did one at a time and taped it together around the bottom.

  • I joined all the sections and taped the inside and out to form a teacup shape.
  • I taped the bottom base onto the teacup.


  • I covered the teacup in paper mache by using wall paper paste and newspaper.
  • I then left the paper mache to dry and then added another layer to make the teacup stronger.
  • I then covered the handle in paper mache.

Rayograms

I went in the darkroom to produce these Rayograms. To do this i experimented with a few items and then i brought in a number of different items that i felt related to my project. To get the different effects i overlapped some of my items, used different angels, created different shapes and textures.


Rayograms i experimented with.....








These two rayograms where what i used to experiment with. The light and the settings i had the equipment on was set to how i wanted it all to be and i feel these have turned out well.






Rayograms created with items i have brought in that relate to my project.











This rayogam is hard to see but i feel looks effective and shows different textures, this lighting could be better in this one so the item was more clear.
