Work I Want to Exhibit

Obviously for the exhibit to come together we all first have to pick what work of ours we want to display. We each get to select 3 pieces of our own work to display at the exhibit.

I wanted to choose 3 different visual styles when it came to my work. The categories I decided on were Graphic, 3d and 2d. I was undecided whether I wanted one of these to be an actual animation or just stillshots. This will be a decision that can be made later though as obviously we are limited in terms of actually displaying moving images.

my first piece of work I decided I want to display is from my first year work of uni. It is a poster advertising a film/dvd that we did for our digital imaging module.
















I really enjoyed this part of the module back then. I felt that I really grasped a good visual style for this poster and tied it in to be recognisable from Tolkien's sketches itself.

Again linking to the Lord of the Rings (I was a bit of a fanboy) my 3d work is related. This is a single frame shot from my ident animation for my selected channel sky movies.

















I chose this image as I was really proud with my lighting and water effects I created within the scene and feel it creates a good atmosphere.

My final piece I decided to select, whether this will be animated or a still, is from my 2d animation of the muppets.
















I felt that this piece had to be included purely for being so different. It is much more colourful and I believe it will appeal more to the younger visitors to the exhibition. I really enjoyed making the animation, and creating all the characters - which is hopefully evident in their likenesses.

The reason I chose these 3 pieces of work is to show just how varied my work can be and to show I have skills that span all aspects of design. As stated before its undecided whether my muppets work will be the animation or that stillshot. Personally I think people may go crazy if you have to constantly listen to the muppet theme tune, I know I did when I was making the animation!
