After the story a board is coming.

The story

2007-10-17T10:06:00.000-07:00

Yeah!
We (Rowena and I) came up with the perfect story for Larry and Moss.
We had the same idea so it can't be any better!!
We didn't go that far with the idea, but it's great:

(when) LARRY MEETS MOSS!!

Frame 1 – 60:Larry is hanging around, bit bored.
There is nothing to do.

Frame 60 – 90:Moss curiously sneaks up behind Larry. Moss is impressed by the size of the creature and Moss doesn’t quite now what to make out of it..

Frame 90 – 100:Then suddenly Larry spots Moss.

Frame 100 -112:They look at each other…

Frame 112 -148: Larry joyfully opens his arms and want to give Moss a big hug, Larry has found a friend.

Frame 148- 160: Moss on the contrary gets a scared and jumps away. Moss tries to get behind Larry so that Larry can’t see Moss any more.

Frame 160 – 320: (on a loop larry turning) But Larry is also turning, and turning, and turning… turning…

Frame 320 – 332:Larry turns so many times, that larry is getting dizzy. He is getting so dizzy that he suddenly sits down.

Frame 332 – 368: Moss is nowhere to be found. Larry is a bit sad that he can’t find his friend.

Frame 368 – 404: He stands up again and shrugs, it doesn’t make sense.

Frame 404 – 440: When Larry turns around (to look if Moss is behind him), Moss appears.
Moss is stuck in Larry’s bottom.

Hopefully it doesn't go this way when I meet Rowena :)

Larry and Moss

Thursday the 11th of Octobre we (the Dutch and the English) made live contact so that couples could be made. By looking at a big screen and by the blogs that were made, the classes disguised who would work together. Moss was matched with Larry (so I'm working together with Rowena). They are completly different qua style and character so it will be fun and interesting to see how they will interact.

Pick me, Pick me

As I said before, my technique will be on multiplane. I think that you should choose your favourite technique, please don't think that because I do multiplane, you should do the same. It can be interesting to see what different techniques do.
So if you think I like that loose Moss caracter please contact me: dominiques_friends@hotmail.com

Moss

As I said before, I love (prefer) to work with multiplane. Because this animal is perfect for multiplane technique, I made a new version that fits the picture.
I named her Moss.

Short animation test

Because I don't know what kind of technique I wanted to work with, I made a short test to see if 'stripe' (still no name), is animatable in mirage.
I'm saying short, because it's only 3 secs.

In the photocabin

I made an animal that exist out of loose hair balls. Because she isn't solid, there are no limits with the stretch and squash rules. She is a bid shy, but very curious. Most of the time, it looks like that she is acting silly!
Chirsta Moesker (bootcamp teacher) liked the idea of putting the character into a photocabin, and that there you can see, how the animal is. So I put 'stripe'(still no name) in the cabin, and this is how the pictures look like.

I'm seeing stripes

2007-10-07T12:32:00.000-07:00

I liked the animal that is build only on stripes, so I made some more test of it.

Sketchen

When we started, I made some drawings of animals. Because I didn't had any idea what kind of character I wanted, I just draw what came into my mind.

hello

Hello, and welcome on my blog about the excursion project with Norwich (England).I'm Dominique and for this little project I have developed one character (still thinking about a name)that is going to interact with a character from Norwich!
Their will be sketches and tests, texts written on this blog, so people can follow the process. But before all of this happens, I will take this opportunity to tell a bite about myself.

I'm Dominique (girl) and I love to work in cut-out technique. Not with computer, but on multiplane (big thing with a camara hanging above (direction to the grond), with several windowframes, to create deapt.) I do try outs with different materials to find out how it works and if I like it. If you want to see some of my previous work, check my other blogs (www.dominiquebongers.blogspot.com and www.dominiquebongers-afstuderen.blogspot.com) These blogs will give an expression of what i do (and what I'm talking about). Have fun and if you want, leave a message!
