OPEN DOOR with Studio 3 - Moving Images

Session 11   


There was a concentrated effort today as everyone tried to complete their work.
John thought working with Philip and his drawings of different creatures was good.



Ian S got very absorbed in his painting of the background for the Grim Reaper and enjoyed himself again. He said he learnt more about acrylic painting, particularly that the colour would get lighter towards the horizon.

Ian G found it very absorbing too. He had worked very hard at home since the last session to get his film ready for viewing and did some more tweeking today – it looks fantastic! Ian even managed to teach Rozi something she didn’t know how to do by showing her the lipsync program ‘Crazy Talk’. Meanwhile, Ian’s trusty assistant, Elaine, extended her modelling skills to the Grim Reaper animation and worked on a series of Grim’s cloaks gradually changing colour from black to gold. She also did some more work on the Grim himself to make him look even more sinister. She said she enjoyed doing this and found it quite relaxing.


At first, Karen felt down–hearted about her work with the Goddess cards. When she first saw it today, she thought it wouldn’t work but appreciated the help and advice from Rozi and Jill. She then felt a lot better and realised it would work after all with one or two adjustments.


Paul said he enjoyed working with Rozi on his animation sequence and putting the music on to make it more complete.


Howard said, “It was good to see my rough mock–up and see what bits needed doing still – then it all suddenly came together!” He was quite surprised, after all the painstaking work he had put into the drawings and stop motion work, how quickly it all suddenly came together as an animation.
