Bored and Angsty. Woot.

So, I really like the song Breathe by Taylor Swift because to me it sounds like someone actually had the balls to write a song from the otherside of the fence, ya know? The break-up-er, rather than the break-up-ee. It's refreshing. And so... a tribute. Nothing special, it was designed to be part of my wall of craziness (my wall is covered with pictures, drawings, magazine clippings, whatever can be stuck on it with tape...)

I put all the lyrics of the song on it, that's what all those little lines are.

Haha, it got a little crooked at the end there, but oh well.

Design Markers = Heaven.

So we did a project about every 2 weeks in my drawing for animation class. we got scored 1-10, 10 being the best. There was always a theme that we voted on...and for the record, whatever theme I voted for rarely won. It'll be pretty apparent in some. haha.
So here it is...
Stuff for Joe's class:

I took out Assignments 1,2 and 10 because they were horrific.

Assignment #3 - Charly Harper
So this guy uses simple shapes to draw all sorts of stuff, mostly animals though. It's kind of cool I guess, but I wasn't very good at imitating it.

Theme: Insects
Score: 8

Assignment #4 - Design Principles
So we had to pick a sillouette of whatever we wanted as long as it was iconic and demonstrate 4 design principles.
My four principles - Asymetrical balance, contrast of scale/color, variety, focal point by isolation

Score - 10. the one in the upper right hand corner is kind of washed out, but it was just a really big duck in 10% (contrast with the black).

Assignment #5
This was to work on composition and it was kind of a follow up lesson for the design one.
Theme: Me and My Imaginary Friend. (so 'me' in child form...interesting.)

This is me breaking up with my imaginary friend because I have to go join the real world. Heart breaking isn't it?

Personally, I think his metal arm is the coolest thing. ;)
Score - 9

Assignment #6 - 1 point perspective.
And thus starts the 3 weeks of agony...
Theme: Where to hide a body. (Okay, this was a sweet theme. haha.) Mine focused more on the actually death part...because it's not a very good hiding spot.

So, I always have this weird day dream about being killed in a bathtub. Don't ask, it just happens sometimes. I would not have chosen to draw a toliet in perspective if I could've helped it.

Score - 8

Assignment #7 - 2 point perspective.
So this is kind of my pride and joy of all the things I did in Joe's class.
Theme: enchanted forest structure. (Not so hot on the theme though.)

I guess the only reason its enchanted is because the trees are actually part of the building...that's kinda cool right? haha.

Score - 10

Assignment #8 - 3 point perspective.
Theme: Interstellar Monster Battle...(Yeah, no. Didn't care so much for this one either.)

But yeah, I totally owned on the spaceship part. My alien, not so much.

Score - 8

(there was a #9, I didn't do it. oops!)


And that's it for joe's class... (My midterm and final should be on here somewhere...they were part this.)
