I Saw You: Help Me Wonder Woman! -Hulk



Help Me Wonder Woman! -Hulk

Hulk miss talking with Wonder Woman about Rilke, Musashi, solitude and bench pressing! Where did you go?! Hulk not spritely scenester, not wear girly pants, mufflers or guyliner. Hulk not smoke cigarettes in rain outside Tube (aka Fuck Hole) while texting twitter-friends! Hulk is Man! Arrghh! Most Portland girls not understand Hulk. But Wonder Woman understood Hulk, Wonder Woman touched Hulk, but then disappeared! Hulk sad.

Process: Oh, Sonya







I decided to go with stop-mo charcoal animation for this short. The biggest problem was that I am not familiar with the medium, which lent to a bit of trial and error. Erasing and re-drawing was also pretty fustrating and meant that going back and fixing parts was almost impossible. A couple segments were removed from the final animation because of this. Also, the dancer was animated first in flash, then printed out as individual frames as a template and redrawn in charcoal. Then composited back into the animation. Im not totally happy with the composite, but I could just be being overly picky.

Unsuccessful Animation Attempt

Decided to go ahead and post some of the work I did on the Bike I saw you animation. I ended up scrapping it because I was unable to find a time efficient way of animating the work as I originally intended without compromising the quality...I think that their are alot of possible solutions, just havnt been inspired yet.

You were locked at the corner of broadway and 28th, all in green and aquamarine. I rolled by, lavender and white. You made my cog skip a link. Let's make single speed babies, unless your fixed?

Hulk Animation

Now that Im not featured on the Contemporary Design Blog Im not sure how many of you read this...But I thought Id give it a shot anyway. As I mentioned in class, Im stepping away from the Bike animation and moving forward with the Hulk animation instead. However, now that I have committed myself to this new animation I am having concerns about copyright infringement. I wanted to pull screen drops, or ideally straight video, from the Hulk TV series and edit it to fit the I Saw You narrative...Does anyone know the laws/rules of appropriation and how they might apply to my approach for this project?
