Mini Crit
I showed my work to the lecturers and they seemed neither impressed or disappointed. However, when looking at other students work and styles I found that everyone had a different way of getting inspirational ideas. Some went straight into creating images that were detailed and nearly finished but some students reacted to the text by creating colours which I thought was different. Ways of working;
- Creating a final piece
- Sketches (which I did)
- Creating a storyboard (which I did)
- Using just colour
- Researching deeply into the text
- Researching into the author
- Drawing shapes and illusions
- Drawing characters
- Thinking outside the text
- Creating scenarios
- Using text to express the feeling
All very different and I found it a helpful insight of how other people work. It made me realise that I don’t always have to go straight into thumbnail sketches. I can either research into the text a little more or even just start with the very basics of how does the text make me feel and use other media to express that e.g colour, sound, shape. I am still going to continue with my sketches and experiment with a couple of certain images but I will definitely consider other approaches when tackling a brief in the future.
