Gymnasiemässan is one of the biggest events held every year in Stockholm for high school students in order to make it easier for them to find what they want to study for their further education. My school has become rather popular these past few years, so we had this huge booth this year - which attracted a lot of people. :D
Another way to attract kids is by having us students talk about what kind of programmes we have to offer and to answer any questions they might have without sugarcoating anything. I stood in the booth for 10 hours yesterday, accompanied with my great classmates Denise & Alice. We tooks turns to draw on the cintiq while two of us talked about our programme to anyone interested.
The best drawing (that caught the most attention) was obviously Alice’s He-Man. ♥
ugh, my heart :(
Having a crush on someone who you will never have the chance to know sucks.
Especially when you see your crush almost every freaking day at school. ;_______;
WHY ARE THERE SO MANY ADORABLE PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD?
We’ve worked a bit more on our dolls today. If you’re a movie fan, you can probably guess which movie they are from. Our dolls finally have hair! We were originally going to go with some more realistic-looking hair from wigs, but that would be really difficult to work with since it moves on its own. Paul told us to just go with clay, and so we did. I’m still really paranoid that the dolls might fall during shooting and then the hair will get all flat by being mashed against the table. :(
But at least it look kind of nice! Hah. :)
And yes, my doll is super creepy. Her head kind of cracked open during the heating of the head (last week), and it left her looking as if she was some freak from some kind of creepy low budget horror flick.
We will hopefully get them some eyes, lips and shoes next week - and then we can finally start with the other half of the project, which is the part where we have to be extra careful and really patient.
stop-motion project
So we’ve finally gotten started on our dolls for our stop-motion assignment. We made the “skeletons” two weeks ago, but then we haven’t done anything more because we missed our last animation class (due to a stupid museum trip that I would like to erase from my brain). So today we worked really hard to catch up with the scheduele. The dolls are obviously not done yet, but we’ve gotten quite far in just one class - so that’s good. :) Oh and the things you see on the pictures are 1. My sketches for how big the skeletons should approximately be - 2. Work in progress with the heads being cut in half so the hook can become their brain, lol - 3. Putting some “meat to their bones” (I had to take the ‘head’ off because we realized that we did the head part wrong since we will at one point need to put the heads into the oven, and the body is way2flammable for that) 4. & 5. the not-yet-finished gang.
What time is it? It’s coming together time! :D
One of the things I’ve been doing this summer is catching up on all four seasons of Adventure Time and like many others; I have fallen in love with it’s quirky style and awesome humor. So when Oishi drew an Adventure Time-inspired drawing of Marwa and me, I also wanted to try drawing in this style. It started off as a sketch of only Oishi and I, but then I started adding more and more friends of mine in it. The paper in my notebook was too small to fit everyone in, so I took it to my computer to “evolve” the drawing. I wish I could squeeze in some more people into the drawing - because I really don’t want anyone feeling left out or forgotten, but I don’t like things looking too messy.. so this is as many people I could fit in. :( So who are the people in the drawing? Let me introduce you to them! :D
Just doodling a bunch of crap since I’m still at school but I got nothing to.
This is one of the first assignments we got in our animation class when we had just started school, which means it’s quite old. The project went out on that we all made two identical key drawings and gave one of them away to someone else in class. Then we had to go from our own key drawing to the drawing we had recieved; creating a metamorphosis loop. :)
Just some random doodles I did together with Alice and Denise at school some weeks ago.
Some random doodles I made at school today. + ___ + It is what it is.
