Deer Blog,

 The deer are progressing nicely. I've made attempts at an animation using leaves and push pins without a whole load of follow through. The leaves were very smelly and wouldn't last much more than a few days the way they were, which meant I needed a new way of creating the animation. So I tried push pins instead. But this time it was my ability to make a clean animation that failed me. It was rather erratic. So instead of doing a close up shot then zoom like I originally planned, I tried a much smaller scale deer in full view. Drawing in each new frame in pencil before I I used the push pins. This drawing turned out to be just as nice. Great sense of movement from it. Looks like a mad, deer rave.

I like how these actually left an after image AS WELL, in the form of the holes from the pins

I wanted to try my hand at stencleing and spray painting. So, after trying one for my own personal fun (which is now going in the canteen), I made a progression of a deer running using acetate. But I also noticed how cool the bits I cut out were and decided to hang them in sequence.
Unfortunately, I feel the stencils may be a little too static to describe movement. But I'm not quitting it yet.

Nothing to do with the project. Just for shits and giggles.
