I went to see this film at the Mac in Birmingham, and I found it very funny and crazy. The film had both reality which was shown has real footage and fantasy (Dreams)  which was made into an animation but even in the dream it cut back to real footage, which I thought was very good. Im going to use this technique in a film im going to make.

My Grayson Perry/ Stan Brakhage inspired box...

I decided to carry on with my work by making

a box, which lead on from my vase, inspired by Grayson Perry.

I created this box by drawing and using real photos of me and my twin sister, because I wanted a variety of different use of media and techniques. I decided to add stitching around the box for  personal effect.

       On this side of the box, I have used a collage of comic book images to represent our likes today.

 I have drawn this picture of me and my twin using a drawing pencil, and for the background I used a scoldering iron to stick together different fabrics and tissue paper together, because the colours relate back to my big inspiration throughout my work, Stan Brakhage.

 On this piece I decided to use a photocopied image of me and my sister from when we were babies, and I also photocopied our favourite characters from Disney on to some fabric, and for the background I stuck down strips of tissue paper to represent stan Brakhage and his use of colour in his films.

On this side of the box, I left it quite plain and used only newspaper and bits of old books for the background, and drew the picture of us in Pencil, so the box did not look to over crowded.
