Art Foundation College Work 2010-2011 – Animation Concept Work 2011

For my final project at college I decided to work towards producing some concept boards for a short animation based on a Native American legend where all the light in the world is stolen but a Raven gets it back.

Animation Test with Moving Background

The animation was to be done with jointed silhouette puppets and the backgorund was to represent a swirling skyscape that was actually footage of food colouring in milk!

 

Puppetry Work 2008

‘An unusual nocturnal creature, named Yamuka. Rarely sighted forest dweller, its skeletal appererance has given rise to dark tales and legends by local villages, mainly told to the children as scary tales of morality. It is, however, a peaceful herbivore and of no threat to the human population.’

Designed and by myself. Modelled in clay and cast in latex.
