Zine Project

For my Zine project i have decided to study the art of toilet graffiti, especially that of a gay nature and explicit contents. I want to take samples of toilet graffiti & turn it on its head by publishing it as a legitimate paper or magazine advert. Public toilet art is confined to the stalls its written in, when most of it is trying to reach out to others! i plan to bridge that gap & take 'toilet advertising' mainstream, thus turning it on its head. 

Cinema4D animation

More recent cinema4D animation to try & visually express my thoughts of creating a moving image from still taken from a camera, inspired by the zeotrope. It is unpolished as it is just a test subject to act as a spring board to where i want to take the final animation.

Reform inspiration;

the zoetrope;

Been trying to pull all my idea together & i think i have some sort of vision now, Im going to concentrate on the concept of my hybrid rather than the physical object itself. I looked at both my objects & started making a list for each containing words associated with that object as well as power phrases. I started to piece together a few simple animations to try & build a bigger picture of how i wanted my final animation to look. this is one that i think i may use, it is playing on how some people view god & how we interact with cameras. I want my final animation to be like a flickering show real to try and capture the process of several still images. I have also been looking at the zoetrope, as how i was picturing my final idea reminded me of that kind of way of animating several still pictures that a camera may take, plus the person looking in would be a nod towards the fact of some people think that there is a higher power that looks down on us & watches us.

FMP idea

Was chatting to Adam during the London trip & trying to find a interest to base my FMP on, although nothing was generated from the talk i did think about what was said regarding my small obsession with always trying to get everything right, neat & tidy. This led me to look at OCD and how it effected people. I find this really interesting and think it could be a good starting block for my FMP project as it is something that I to a certain extent already understand. I found this video on youtube that was made by guy suffering from OCD and thought it sparked many different options & routes to follow;
