After attending Mike Fox's workshop I embarked on two projects for my Temporary expression.

This piece is moving in stages from

conception --to Gestation -- to growth --to conclusion

Right now I'm in the gestation cycle of the Mayfly's life cycle.

I'm learning to engage various processes through photography using a projector to project my image on the wall where I traced it onto a large piece of cardboard. I made a second tracing onto tracing paper incase I need a second copy in the possibility of things going wrong.

ANIMATION / PRINT CONTEMPORARY PRACTICE

I was looking at Paula Schers work and I got an inspiration to make my poster different. There was lots of cutting involved, editing in photoshop, arranging and finding the right colours. I am using the image from making Gelli plates workshop for the astronaut. Overall, I am very pleased with the result.

Artist research

Paula Scher

Paula Scher is one of the most influential graphic designers in the world. Described as the “master conjurer of the instantly familiar,” Scher straddles the line between pop culture and fine art in her work. Iconic, smart, and accessible, her images have entered into the American vernacular.

I am going to apply her style into my animation task.

Nazri Sulaiman is one of the famous photographers in Malaysia. His genre is 'people and places'. I've been following him for years and was trying to experiment with a similar style. I am still in the process of learning using DSLR - aperture, start shooting in raw, ISO etc. Here are examples of his work. I would appreciate any comments if you find his stuff interesting.

I was trying to do camera obscura in the bedroom. It was working but I can't get the real image to capture it.

I think the problems is that I need to control the access light.
