claus gnomy stop motion animation :)

In CyberARTS as a class we did stop motion animation, we chose to do picture of a gnome that lives in our garden :) It took us about three days to finish all the finger prints, keep in mind we had lights, an easel, a tripod and camera, and ten people running a round to get every thing organized. Our first animation and i think we did well as grade nine students. I hope you liked our animation and remember gnome's have feelings too so don't kick them to the side, keep them warm in the winter and shaded in the summer ... their always watching :)

Hunger PSA

Helloooooo everyone:) 

This is Nicole, Jessica & Matt's PSA. We chose the topic of Hunger. We were trying to explain how even the person we stand beside on a bus, or the person we sit beside in class could be starving, but we have no way of knowing. This is an issue that faces Canada, 38% of food bank users are children under the age of 18. This PSA was for our class video assignment. Hunger is an crucial issue, however the majority of us have a blind eye to it. Click here for more information, and donate to your local food bank, as any donation will help (We tried this on Jessica's blog, but it wasn't working). 

PSA analysis

PSA analysis, In CyberARTS we were to find and PSA that stands out to you, I found this on Youtube.com, its a PSA about how kids learn from watching there parents talk, act, and do , our parents teach us to walk , talk and respect one another, but sometimes parents don't think when it come to fighting and making fun of other people because of there race, or colour of your skin. You may not realize but everyday parents let little comments slip from their mouths. whach this PSA about parents and what they should watch out for.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLIW8JWk1RI&feature=related

The focus on this video is to warn parents about watching what they say round their kids and in general , commenting on some ones race,  or colour of their skin can be very affencive to the person and when a parent says it around their kids it puts it in the kids head that it is ok to comment on other people when it is most of the time not. I like this video because I think it gets the clear point across. Making a video about how kids follow what parents say and do is an issue that is not really talked about and is a big issue all around. Useing  children in the PSA is really affective because its about parents teaching their kids what is right. Kids listen to every thing a parent has to say to them and others, and when a parent says or makes a wrong comment their child is still listening. Children telling parents that it is not okay to comment on other people gets the point across because its the child teaching the parent instead of the parent teaching the child. Changing the person speaking is really affective too because it sends a message saying that its not only one parent or person making comments its a lot of parents. The music is low and keeps a steady pace and that helps the viewer concentrate more on the video and getting the point across. I hope this video sends a message to you and makes you think about you say about people who look different.

NFB animation :)

P.S NARWHALES ARE AMAZING <3

artist statement for Narritive

 Narrative Artist Statement

 For CyberARTS we have been making our own Narratives that have to be in a 3D substrate ,what is a Narrative you ask, well a Narrative is a story that is created in a constructive format describing a sequence of fictional and non fictional events. For my Narrative I chose to do a continuous narrative which is a narrative that illustrates multiple scenes, actions and uses multiple and, repetitive characters. In my narrative there's three scenes the first scene shows anticipation, ( brave boy trying to rescue girl from octopus but by accident grabs umbrella instead of sword) an action ( boy jumping at octopus with umbrella to kill him to rescue girl) and a re-action which is the boy rescued  the girl and is by the boat safely and octopus swimming away with umbrella. Making my narrative I used chalked pastels and black permanent ink to out line the peaces so they were clearer to see. When I was making my art i struggled with sticking the peaces to my 3D substrate I tried glue but that didn't work that well because the peaces kept falling down, to fix my problem I used sticky tape to help the peaces from falling.

Optical Devices

                                           Zoetrope
            the Zoetrope is a type of Optical device, it was made  in 1834 by William Horner who originally called it Daedalum meaning "wheel of the devil". The way you would use this toy would be to make a film like sheet of paper fitting in the wheel with slim movements of you pictures, for instance a person running, the steps would be little movements of the person in action. After you have drawn this sheet of "film" you then place it in the Zoetrope and look through one of the little strips to see the movement of the person. This toy was very popular in the middle 1800's and now a days is you found a Zoetrope I think you would find it very amusing too.

critque

 “Las Meninas”

Hi in my cyber arts class we have to pick an old picture in this book and we have to describe Imitational, Formal, and Emotional qualities. It sounds boring but I have a lot to say.

Imitationalism

I think this picture does imitate realism because obviously you can tell that there are people and the setting is in a living room of some sort maybe a wonderful palace with secret passages. The detail in the picture shows you that there are small children and a couple of adults grading the door way and designing cloths. The lighting on the picture is bright colors like white and yellowswhere the children are and gloomy colors in the back round, I think the girls are standing more in front of awindow to get the light colors and if they were standing more to the back of the room the picture would be more gloomy.

Formalism

In this picture I think formalism is used in some cases very well and in others poorly. Using the principles of design I have judged this painting. The space in this picture is used well the negative and positive space are spread out through the painting witch emphasis the realism, on the other hand movement isn’t really used in this painting its very plain and my eyes aren’t directed all around the painting, they are just attacked to the little girl in the middle of the picture.

Emotionalism

Well this is a very interesting painting because I don’t think that I have very many emotions towards it. My feeling towards this painting is I get bored looking at it there’s not really any emotion, maybe gloomy and depressed; it’s like when you’re a child and you flash back to when you had to stand there when your parents would want to dress you and made you stand there for a long time.

logo

logo design
 1. For my logo design i was thinking of using three different names for my company
"Get the cheese and just smile"
"Snap your shot"
"Cheesy smiles "

2. My company is photograph school for anyone ,adults, children, anyone who want to learn how to use a  camera and photography.We would have many different people working for the company and be starting school when ever you book a class we have available.

3. All for one - everyone works as a team and we work every professional but laid back, we work very well with costumers, and we are very competitive with competition.

4. For my company i chose a caterpillar to represent what kind of work we do. I chose a caterpillar to represent my company because i feel it represents a unity of abilities , in other words it  is an animal that people doesn't really have an opinion, it could be cute, fuzzy, gross anything the point is that about photography doesn't  have not only one opinion people photograph many different things and its up to you to have your own opinion.

lines

 Rhythm Assignment

1. The first lines that I think don’t represent rhythm because there’s no feel to the lines there just the same lines in the same direction with different quality’s, if I were a random person looking at these lines I would say they have no rhythm because they look really boring and the positive and negative space are really being contrasted.

     2. The second line design I did was lines were that I could vary the direction quality and the position of the lines. I think these lines represent rhythm because they make you think about the movement of the lines. For me it makes me look from the top of the box till the middle of the lines where the lines get smaller and thinner.
