Brief 04

In this assignment i wanted to express confusion with zooming in and out. And i thought, since the song is talking about a particular girl, the idea of the girl driving him insane is because of her constant nagging, so I've exaggerated the fact that shes yelling. Again most of my inspiration came from handmade texture. A few examples of what i mean:



i love the texture of this plaster, it seems like there is life running through it with each grain and detail so pretty in everyway.

The the texture in this paper is great, you can see the expressions of raw anger coming through this.

i decided for my brief 04 to express a song titled Out Of Control by Kenna. The reason being is mainly because i found this soong very expressive in terms with the emotional lyric. SO i did some research into what the actual song was about. As it appears...

Out of control(state of emotion)- Kenna

All this pressure's building up

And there's a chance it's gonna explode

And I can't promise how, when or where,

But I can tell you it'll happen for sureIt's a crazy world,

it's spinning fastRound and round and round we go

Just keep your eyes on me now loveNever stray, never let go,

NO!Shit is out of control! It's out of control!

And I don't care what is happeningNo getting frustrated!

I wanna be sedated!So I don't care,

love come with me

Yeah it's doing my head in, you're doing my head in

And I can't change the state of emotion!

Bang bang boom energy's in the air

And the universe is speaking to me

And it's telling me, telling youTo get closer,

don't lay it on meIt's the same old feeling that I've been holding in

It's a feeling that's got a hold

I need your love and a key

So let me in and never let go,

NO!Shit is out of control!

It's out of control!

And I don't care what is happening

No getting frustrated!

I wanna be sedated!

So I don't care, love come with me

Yeah it's doing my head in,

you're doing my head in

And I cant change the state of emotion!

it's insane how it feelsit's insane how this feels

and I'm getting hotter

and I'm losing my mind

it's insane how it feels it's insane how this feels

and I'm feeling pressure and it's building up inside

it's insane how it feelsit's insane how it feels

and I'm losing my headyeah I'm losing my mind

and I feel the pressureand it's ready to blow!

HEY!Shit is out of control! It's out of control!I don't care what is happening,

HEY!Shit is out of control, out of control.

Pirate Ship (03)

Shaun Tan is one of my favourite children book's illustrator. My main inspiration for creating a child-like feel would be influenced through my fascination with his stuff. In particular his book the lost thing where he uses found materials and turns them into collages. I hope can achieve that through using various found materials in this movie as well.

I really like the hand made graphics used in this book as well. Especially with the typography made of branches and sticks. I guess what I'm trying to say is that i am aiming to make my movie look hand generated.
This is one of the most exciting book covers I've seen. I like the hand made texture with the lettering. This was designed by Jenny Grigg.
