This week I've taken on abit of extra work helping out one of the 3rd years on their project "The Musician" directed by Sarah Crombie. I'm building props for the stop motion set, which is currently under construction. I'm doing the wood work for Jarvis's bedroom (the main character)
Although I've never really been into puppet animation, since working and researching around sarahs concept i've actually come around. I've seen how vast and expressive stop motion puppets can be - its not just scary puppets freaking me out but extremely detailed and stylized pieces of art!
I've done some research around the subject - to better understand the style that Sarah is going for and found 3D Illustrator Chris Sickels work to be a great influence. His dark style really appeals to me and it's something Sarah is trying to emulate within her animation.
