I see faces- Initial ideas

Through investigating different initial roughs and ideas experimenting with media and character I have produced a fairly broad collection of characters and narratives, which I feel confident in being able to push further through development work.

What ideas I like:
- Sharpening pencil-simple and could be fairly 'hypnotising'
- Toast being slowly eaten-but how would I make it loop?
- Simple faces- could just be showing emotion, easy to make relatable
- Animals- think about putting them in clothes/human situations
- Hair used as profile line- like scope for moving head around and showing movement

What needs improvement:
- Try more media- Posca marker, 3D-wool, plasticine etc.
- Try to storyboard more and show how different characters could interact/move
- Think of ways to add faces without just a cartoon face added on top of objects-doesn't work too well

What to do next:
- Create a character/theme which will link the three gifs
- Explore wide media
- Create timetable to help manage time
- Experiment with different digital processes

What's important throughout this project:

Development of solutions-roughs/scamping
Critical awareness of intent-what kind of tone?
Identify and select approaches-explore media
Incorporation of visual skills-crafting/time spent
Time management and blogging-timetables

Aims:
1. answer the brief
2. do what you do then go beyond
3. astonish yourself
