Taking the piece to work to present it, and doing math for my gifs on my leg during a meeting.
In this project, I learned two ways to make two types of gif which was very interesting and a long time coming considering my job is social media.

Taking the piece to work to present it, and doing math for my gifs on my leg during a meeting.

Setting up (incomplete because I wasn’t done by the time it was best to invite people round) for the presentation. Paddy unwrapped one of my paintings from some plastic wrap and asked if it was collusion since he was ‘helping’ me. Helping? You pulled some plastic off a finished painting I did, don’t let it go to your head.
Affixing the corresponding photos to their paintings
Sides. Having only ever used flat canvases and smooth bristol, I was very thrown by the fact I suddenly had four extra surfaces to worry about.
Working with a casual rave happening on the screen is difficult, especially when you're also trying to make a moving image
My tiny baby laptop’s processor (and broken screen) was really struggling with the gif making, so I’ve upgraded to my father’s iMac temporarily

Imperfect but I think you can really tell its me.

Obviously procrastinated this one till the last minute. Even though I frequently paint myself, this one seemed most intimidating because however much I can say that you don’t know what my friends look like, you do know what I look like so you have a reference to compare the painting to.
First gif. I wanted to have the gallery turn over to show each photo, in addition to having the images all separate for longer viewing. Originally, I settled on 7 frames per photo flash, because my computer couldn’t handle too much more. 7 frames of painting + 7 of photo, + 7*11 more pieces= 91 frames per gif.
When I posted it on here I realized that was not long enough, and I had to double it to 14 frames of photo, so 182 frames per gif. This makes the process take significantly longer but I think its important.

I think I pulled it together at the end, even though he looks a bit like Handsome Squidward from that episode of spongebob.

I was very excited to not have to sketch him first (because I was working out of my memory so I figured I could go straight to canvas) until I made him a literal potato and shorted him of about 3 inches of forehead

I was saving train tickets for a while, partly to use as references for the background when I thought I would have text on them, but now they have consumed my life. Everything I own has a train ticket somewhere in it.
My goal was to be able to display my paintings like in real life, to have them be so if you moused over the painted side the corresponding photo would appear. After hours spent trying to code and a lot of frustration, I have decided to have it be gifs that ‘spin’ the paintings automatically. Very sad that none of this worked:
