Weave stop motion animation film...

This is a weave i made by using brightly coloured wool, I chose these colour's because it links in perfectly with my work and films. This picture is the final product of my stop motion animation film; I did this by taking a photo of every weave and then putting it on final cut and editing it there.

Transfer printing..

 

 In this piece, I made stripy prints, then transfered them onto fabric, and then I sown pieces of string on top to create a 3d effect, which also made it look like the string were dripping down the fabric.

                 I liked this piece because it created a layered affect with the different coloured strips.

 I though this worked well because I tried to make a little transfer print similar to my experimental film.

 I like the ghostly effect this print made by layering different colours on top but not leaving the iron on               top for too long.

 I created this piece by layering different shapes on top but still keeping on with the different theme's I tried out.

I like this piece the most because i've created a 3d piece by layering cotton and fabric on top of each other then I stitched around the shapes and added string on top, I think this piece has some similarity to the art work 'The snail' ...

Film related art...

                            These two pictures are screen shots from my experimental film I made.

I made these copies by painting onto sheets of A5 pieces of glass with acrylic paints, I thought this worked well.

This is the short experimental film I made, it still needs a little work but here's what I made so far...

I created my own little plastic squares, and added different coloured ink on top, similar to Stan Brakhage's work...

I then with the squares that was left over placed one on top of another to create a layered effect and took a photo of it, I like this one because you can still see the background i created too through both of the squares.

 I like these two pieces, because the bottom square has got more ink spread around it, but the top square has little splatters of ink, so it creates contrast between the two squares.

 These pieces work well because I put two more spread out ink pieces together, and I think it works well because it merges the two pieces together.

 This is part of my sketch book, to show how I created my Stan Brakhage inspired pieces.

I print screened some of Stan Brakhage's experimental films I Liked the most because his use of colour is so bright and contrasting, it's inspired me to want to create my own little stop motion animation.

Altering Perception's 2...

In the top picture I created another frame and wrapped different materials around it like string, wire and fabric. I then took a section from it and enlarged it onto an A1 piece of paper using drawing pencil, then painted the tissue paper with oil paints, and added real tissue paper on top for a realistic effect; I then added real string and bits of thread to match with the picture I took, I also added collage for the background, to make all the other objects stand out.
