Persons of Note- The Imitation Game

Aims:
As suggested by Matt, I sketched whilst I was watching The Imitation Game, in order to just see what freely came to my mind during it.



Intent:
I wanted to just visually explore avenues I hadn't thought of before and look at broader aspects of his life that just what I had found online in Google Images.

Evaluation:
Although I don't think my drawings were particularly successful, they did help me to understand more interesting avenues about his work and how these could be depicted. I also found the quick nature of my drawings very interesting, as I has to quickly scribble down what I could see and how I made sense of scenes, which helped me to develop a deeper understanding of how all these small things come together to make what is Alan Turing.

Questions:
There were many times when I avoided drawing things because I wasn't confident in doing so quickly, can I compromise with speed and accuracy by using my imagination to fill in the gaps?
How far can I strip back the imagery without it loosing the nature of Turing?

Could I combine aspects of each element of the finals to create a bigger picture? (Like making something for the viewer to decode??)
