FMP Research

Giles Revell - The Human Form.  

 

I love how there are parts missing from the body, the reflections make their skin look as it is made from another material.  I will have to look into types of material in my project to help describe autism. 

FMP

I am going to be looking into Autism for my FMP, hopefully I will be able to research and find out more about individuals who are autistic therefore my research will involve a fair amount of interaction with autistic people as part of primary research. The main idea is to show others who are not autistic what it can be like in the shoes of someone who is, also to show others that our social skills, which we do not need to think about most of the times should not be taken for granted.


Autism is a developmental disorder which is lifelong. It affects the way a person communicates and interacts with people around them, people who are autistic find it difficult to interact socially but there are many effects of autism depending on the person.


Asperser syndrome is a hidden disability which means you cannot tell if a person has this just by looking at them. This area of autism causes difficulty in the following areas:

* Social communication-understand visual communication, reading body language, understand tones and expressions
* Social Imagination- Being able to know what another person is thinking or feeling.
* Social Interaction- Maintaining friends or being able to understand the social rules.

This is the area in autism that I am going to be studying. as a designer it is extremely important to be visually literate in order to produce designs that will communicate to others

Surghface.

Surghface is the name of my company for a branding project. I have just been creating a cover for the graphic design mag. Its done in illustrator using the mouse, these kind of images usualy come together after playing around with positions and correcting the shapes. To me it looks like creative thoughts pouring out of the mind.

Zine Research

Alexis Goodwin

I was once told by my tutor that I have a tight style of illustration. last year was good practise to loosen it up in the drawing lessons. I have decided to put it into practise once again.

progress??

Having had the zine brief whilst producing my animation.  The illustrations are coming along. the images I have used as references aren't my own photos but I cant travel to Mexico just yet....

A VERY LOOSE ILLUSTRATION

Cinema 4d

Feels good to have added files into cinema 4d, I am trying to get the textures on them but I cant remember how to do it. this is a sort of trial run. now for the harder part which is to directly edit the model.

2. ARRRGHHHHH damn tail!

3. I tackled the tail now to make it all stuffed looking!

4. Take that teddy!!!

5. the modelling is getting easier, this one didn't take as long as yesterday....now for some paint and a bit of animation!

6.

there are some ideas I have for animating this. one is to morph the series of models from one to another including some of the patterns to melt into a new shape. the other is to start off with a cube n animate the cube mutating.

7.

Rendered out using the sketch and toon. I may have to just render out normal to suit the ideas but I shall experiment and see which results are the best.

15/11: Its back to Cinema 4d.....I want to use the morph tool but I don't know how to apply it to my model. I have an animation in mind but its very difficult to make it a reality. Frustrating stuff!

8. tricky one to model.

9. fancy a swim in my pool?
