Semester 2 movement brief: statement
For my movement brief, I followed the theme of movement through combat/ fighting. My electives for this semester were painting, animation and graphic design.
I explored this theme through looking at three areas of combat to focus on; hand to hand combat, weapon based combat, and simulated/video game combat. I explored these areas in my primary research and narrowed down my theme to the specific areas of kickboxing, sword fighting and using a vr headset. I connected my three electives by using these three forms, and turning them into characterizations , and used them throughout my elective work
painting- painting using tools related to my theme such as knives, my own hands/fists and pointillism, also explored movement through how I moved while making the painting.
animation- 2d animation of three characters based within a fighting game, cycling through idle animations on a character select screen.
graphic design- three posters based on my three areas of combat explored, inspired by the workshops I did and the artist I researched.
