Major Project Plan Update

-


 Below are some screenshots on the updated project plan sheet (purple sections). Although I did fall behind on the original timetable in some areas, I was able to complete most of the important actions I had to take within the plan. I have completed all the artist research I needed, joined and learned skills that was relevant to my final project and now only have to finish my work and do some follow up posts regarding some topics.

    This is clear and demonstrates that, as you say, you have mostly stuck to your original plan - although adding some further research near the deadline helps to show how your research and development has lead you to other artists/designers during this process.

Character Design (2/3): Turtle

-

  Another main character present in this story is the turtle (sea turtle in technicality due to the setting being in an ocean, but most characterisations do follow more of a land turtle’s), who function as the communicator between the sea king and the rabbit due to it being the only animal to ‘travel through both the water and the land.  I wanted to put more focus on the sea turtle elements to my character, so I have simplified the shape of a sea turtle into two shapes: the teardrop shape which comprises the head and the limbs, and the ‘muffin’ shape which composed the body or the shell.  Photo of a sea turtle by NFWF   Then, as I have with the rabbit character, I analysed turtle characters from famous media. I have suspected that sea turtles would not be a common character since ocean-focused cartoons are very specific and rare, and my search had shown as such. Land turtles were more common to be used, with the rare exception of the sea turtle Crush from the movie ‘...

Artist Research: Penny Siopis, ‘Warm Water Imaginaries’ and Abstraction

-
Image
   Penny Siopis is an multi-medium artist of Greek descent born and working in South Africa, representing issues ranging from the traumas of children in South Africa to global, political issues. She has worked with a range of mediums, from photography and films to paintings, but I am focusing on her painting series and her techniques, specifically her abstraction and fluid art.   For a long time, Siopis worked with concepts that were ‘beyond representation’ (South African History Organisation, n.d.)– personal representation, psychology, trauma and such– and integrating dynamic materials into her works as if to show the organic nature of such psychological issues. This may be especially due to her life in South Africa which had and still has several social issues, one of which being ‘Apartheid’ which is a type of racial segregation that happened in South Africa to South West Africa during 1948 to 1994 due to the all-white government. She specifically mentions this iss...

  Cover Illustration of ‘ The Hare’s Liver ’, illustrated by Ye Jung Jo   The Hare’s Liver, also known as The Story of the rabbit,  is a traditional Korean fairytale and a type of Aesop’s Fable (stories revolving around animal characters to teach moral to children) which criticises the division between the rich and the poor (between the royalty and the common folk during its time of creation) and how the weak can overcome crisis through wit and wisdom. Below is the overview of this story by KOREA.net (Ministry of Culture): ‘ As the story goes, the Dragon King, the king of the sea, was deathly ill. His subjects suggest that a hare’s liver could cure him, yet none of them are brave enough to venture onto land to get the liver— that is, until the turtle volunteers. Once ashore, the turtle finds a rabbit and persuades him to visit the underwater kingdom, where great riches, beauty, and honor—the turtle claims—await. The rabbit agrees.   Back underwater, in the audience o...
