Definition - When I hear the word Portrait, I think of family, friends, memories, facial expressions and movement. There are so many words to describe the word Portrait.
Ideas - Throughout planning my animation for my final piece, I came up with a lot of different ideas to use but my favorite idea that I came up with was to create an animation using dolls and and making the atmosphere all dark and creepy. I used three different dolls - an old china doll and two dolls from the doll collection called 'Living Dead Dolls', an old mask, and an old clock to create the background to make my pictures that little more interesting. I decided to use the song Middle-sex Times by Micheal Andrews for the instrumental soundtrack to go with my animation because the song added to the creepy and datk atmosphere I was intending to create.
Research - I have researched quite a few different artists who were all different within their styles of art. Some of the artists that I have researched were Leonardo da Vinci, Vincent Van Gogh, Alex Katz and two of my personal favorite artists David Lynch and Martin Creed. Martin Creed's and David Lynch's work particularly interested me because their styles of art are so much different to that of most other artist's work. Martin Creed films people vomiting, switches lights on and off whereas David Lynch ceates the most bizarre pictures such as a cow with all it's interstines hanging out and it's head cut off and women lying naked but the sexual organs are blurred and almost invisible to see.
Materials - The materials that I have used throughout this project to create my short film animation are a small stills digital camera, a tripod, a light, 3 creepy looing dolls and a lot of weird objects to create my background such as an old clock, china dolls and an old mask.
Above is a picture of my mind map to show as evidence but unfortunately it is mirrored and backward because I had taken the photograph on a Mac so my apologies but I have wrote everything that's on my mind map above.
