Process 1: dove parade
Just archiving my process and evolution from idea to product.
thought I might be able to scan inked illustrations for the animation, but realised it didnt work (couldnt get clean scans/photographs) and had to re-illustrate in flash vector. threw some real photographs in as place holders for props and decided that I liked how it looked and went with it for the final animation.

2. Inked sketch

Artist Statement: "I Saw You"
Here is my first artist statement attempt for the BFA Terminal Project.
Moonstrider, Portrait Man, The Hunger and Pippy, created prior to this term, are presented as complements to my developing BFA project. Each of the animations showcase different approaches to animation in terms of style, theme, process and execution. The idea of developing a project without the limitation of conforming to a single process, approach or medium preceded the initial conception of my current endeavor.
Dove Parade, and Thanks for all the Snuggle Times, are the first in a series of animated shorts based on public personal ad postings submitted to “I Saw You” and “Missed Connections” forums found in weekly print publications such as The Eugene Weekly and The Portland Mercury, as well as online networking communities such as Craigslist. These forums contain regularly updated short descriptions of sightings and brief encounters which are generally motivated by romantic ambition, missed opportunities, desperation and redemption.
Individual postings generally provide minimal context with which to inform the majority of its readers. They are personal and mostly anonymous, often intended for a specific, limited and unlikely audience, but consumed by a significant portion of the community. Interpreting the postings of these public forums, and translating them into a series of short animated segments, offers an opportunity to engage the peculiarities that modern communication, community and culture provide. Independently, the animations should function as brief, awkward, incidental encounters, but collectively they may provide a broader impression of human relationships and personalities.
My approach to the project entails a loose and open-ended conceptual structure. However, a procedural strategy has begun to emerge that adopts a more subjective approach. For example, every animated posting will be interpreted and executed using different criteria, methods, style, approaches etc. Some will be dealt with using stop motion, others vector, silhouettes, retro computer graphics, or hand drawn, with the possibility of video, print and other mediums. The criteria for developing each animation will directly reflect the tone and/or references within the selected postings, and selections will be based on what I find to be most engaging or offer a compelling potential for an animated interpretation. Since this project is founded on cultural and communal communication, the selections for the animated shorts will come from publications local to the Pacific Northwest throughout the course of my BFA year.

BFA Project: "I Saw You"
After working through my previoius ideas and coming up with a semi-coherent outline for my BFA project, I promptly lost interest. Maybe after a few days Ill come back to it with new motivation. But for now Im exploring another possibility.
I came upon this new idea while I was sleeping. The Eugene Weekly posts a section called “I Saw You” where people can submit short descriptions of their sightings and casual encounters with people who are generally affiliated by only that one moment or series of moments. I want to select specific postings throughout the year and translate them into animated shorts based on my own interpretation of the description. My tendency is to create things that are slightly odd or disturbing, and that would likely be the angle from which I would interpret these postings. Each short would receive a unique approach in terms of style and interpretation. As an instillation I would likely create a mock-up I saw you page from a newspaper to occompany the looping video. Here are some examples I pulled from the online Eugene Weekly, the top one being my personal favorite:
Organic Garden Hoe
You were hunting garden slugs at midnight, I was driving drunk in a company vehicle trying to get back into bed. You were wearing over-alls and singing a song about six little ducks, I was eating peanut butter and farting like the hairy bear I am. You were crying over a book fully of funny photos, I was missing you from a foreign country. Will I see you before I go away again?

OSAA sweatshirt in Winco
I was with my dad at Winco on Sunday night (the second). We eyed each other in the store several times. You had an OSAA Track and Field sweatshirt and I had on my Oregon one. You bought fish sticks and orange gummies and my dad and I had a conversation about Kashi cookies from Chicago. I tried to go after you in the parking lot but you were gone! I would love to meet you.

BFA Project: Narrative
My most recent thoughts of the BFA project involve a more narrative based approach. I still want to use the Stream of Consciousness idea for one thread of the project. But my newest ideas incorporate other aspects.
Im still undecided on the multi-panel/frame approach, but I would like to carry on the concept of a central character experiencing different places/realms/worlds comprised of different materials and animation styles.
My current idea would have the central character, Raul, begin alone in his dwelling as thoughts run through his head. This is the stream of consciousness thread. Where the thoughts form a continuous run-on narrative, as Raul contemplates his place in the world, reality, insanity and other related rantings – the animation reflecting the same sort of looseness and continuity of the characters thoughts, and potentially utilizing letterform to also carry the narrative (See below “RUreal”).
The narrative will continue with Raul leaving his house and exploring different locations. Each new location he visits will be visually distinct. Ideas for possible environments in which the character will interact include: A hand drawn world, a world made of fabric, meat, vector, letterform, photo cut-outs, old school 8 bit graphics, garbage, etc…
In each of these locations, Raul meets or seeks out a merchant character, whom offers unique commodities/chochkas in exchange from something else (possible things from the Raul’s home land). This exchange and accumulation takes place across all the environments and Raul’s home gradually becomes cluttered with items from his travels.
At this point, there might be another Consciousness segment as the character reflects on his travels and his newly cluttered environment. He gets lost amidst his own clutter and…(rejects it, destroys it...?)
He returns to the places he had visited previously (but the landscapes have changed slightly, reflecting the impact he made on previous trips). He bypasses the merchants this time, seeking to assimilate culture as oppose to the material manifestations. He visits a pub and becomes entranced by some musicians playing on the stage. As the musicians hit and strum their instruments animated depictions of the sounds fill the room, and little materialized beads of sound bounce off the walls and onto the floor. Raul picks one of the beads up and puts it into is pack. He continues to the other previously explored environments and collects other abstractions of the cultures, including materializations of beliefs etc.
He places these objects into a jar placed on the counter of his dwelling, until the jar is full. He tends to the jar of music, ideas and beliefs as they interact, grow, transform and fuse. He cultivates a mini culture comprised of his favorite elements from those visited. This “culture” grows in size and beyond Raul’s control, necessitating larger jars, a fish tank etc…
The result is a shape-shifting blob like creature who peers out from the fish tank, beckoning Raul for release. As Raul sleeps, his mind goes down another rant, and the blob escapes his jar, entering and possessing Raul’s body…

Remix Project
For the sake of maintaining this blog as a digital journal and hub for my work throughout the year, Ive posted my Remix project presentation. It can be found at the link below.

Group Name
Now that the profile pics are almost complete, I decided to invest some time in contributing to the group name. I tried to think along the lines of other suggestions given during class and thought “under construction” could fit into that category. Its frequently used in web sites, and reflects our building, program and process. But then I got to thinking about how some reference to the Bar Code might be appealing. The acronym “UPC” popped into mind (which is a specific type of bar code), or SKU (another inventory term related to bar codes). An acronym might be too short, and the three words making up the acronym might be too long, but I wanted to contribute and see if it inspires anything. Havnt come up with anything that works but here are some words that might work in the right combination.
E.G.
Ubiquitous Pixel Curmudgeon
Unencumbered Pixelation Comity
or whatever
Potential Words:
Uni
Unanimity

BFA Project: 25 Frames Idea
Ive been trying to work out another possible direction for my BFA project. Ive been considering several ideas involving a multi-panel/framed instillation. Here are a few descriptions of how it might work.
1. On the wall is a 5 x 5 grid of screens/monitors (25 total), all containing the same scene and sequence, but the content of each screen would be created using different materials, styles or themes. Each screen would represent a different “realm." For example, in one screen, the sequence would be hand drawn, another would contain the same landscape and subjects but made of animated fabric, another of raw, pulsating meat products, another using vector graffics, stop motion, cross-section or even video. It would be a cyclical sequence. To take it further, a table in front of the monitors may contain print versions, one on hand made paper, another of glossy computer paper etc.
• In addition, it might be interesting if one or multiple subjects moved between the screens, changing in appearance to reflect the realm in which it is temporarily inhabiting. Maybe there would be some kind of narrative to motivate the subject’s movement across panels.
2. A similar themed instillation may use the multi-frame sequence of monitors to represent an animated comic book page – each containing a short looping animation.
3. One additional possibility, is using the grid of monitors to display different things at different times. Three monitors would be used to contain a short sequence, then transition to a five frame sequence, or even short flashes of patterns across the whole grid, etc. It would not always be sequenced left to right, and could be broken up by monitors that display black, static, or whatever else works. This idea is a little more difficult to describe.

Profile Portraits Update #2
Here are the final 5. Now that they are all done, I just need to go back and do some cropping, and minor touch ups. Please let me know if any of you need me to fix anything, such as eye color etc. I think the majority have turned out pretty good, but some are better than others. If I totally botched your identity, let me know and perhaps eventually I can redo it. These took longer than expected (1.5 hours plus each), but I want you all to be happy with them, so no worries, just let me know.

Profile Portraits Update
I added a few more. The picture of me is same one from last week and is basically just a place holder for the moment I either need to redo myself or change the skin tone to match the others. 5 more to go.

Profile Portraits
Here is the first set of portraits. Most of them still need a little tweeking. May or may not have time to do more by Monday, need to shift focus toward the Remix proj., Readings, response paper, blogs etc...and hopefully finding something to do for halloween, anyone know of any goings on??? Let me know what you all think about the work.

BFA Project
Here is a breakdown of one potential direction for my BFA project. I have one more idea that Im still seriously considering and a few smaller ideas. But I want to let this one out and see whether or not it sticks.
I have a few starting points for my BFA project. After trying to work through these different concepts Ive been visualizing I began trying to synthesize them into some sort of coherent outline and meaningful pursuit. I have lots of seeds for ideas but for the most part are just visual and procedural concepts. At this point Im thinking the best way to develop them is to just begin working on them. It occurred to me that a stream of consciousness narrative could be a really interesting approach to my project. In other words, no real plan, just begin animating and don’t stop until the end of the year. The central rule being that the animations must connect, one idea transitions to the next. Ideally, the final sequence would segue back to the first, creating a continuous loop.
I know I want to work with cross-sections (e.g. of a man, house, a tree, earth, volcano, appliances, the brain, heart, animals, the fridge, etc)
I want to use a variety of mediums or animation styles (hand drawn animation, stop-motion, video, paper cut out animation, flash, animations made entirely of fabric, meat, legos, pixilated etc) – sometimes mixed and sometimes exclusive to the sequence. Perhaps the culmination would be all the styles interacting together.
I cant decide if it needs a theme, or if a stream of consciousness approach should be theme-less.
A potential theme might revolve around dealing with clutter, complexity and interdependence of organisms etc…As well as analyzation, deconstruction, and acknowlegement and appreciation of these processes and things.
If I did follow this idea through to the end, I can easily see where at the final legs of the project I may need to edit or rework the project into something that works on a different level. In the end it may become a sequence of interconnected shorts.
If nothing else I think this could be a good starting point to get me working.
