Animation Thought Process/Ideas

 I have a simple idea that is based around the design and thought of Tim Burton's style. Since I can't draw or create well bodies I would make a simple head that would bounce around and just be able to move on it's own without legs. He would have different colored eyes or maybe lights for eyes. He would have a hole where his nose should be. And his mouth would be stiched but still able to open. As well as various stitches around the rest of his face. The top of his head could light on fire.

PTA Reflection

I used this photo for the PTA Reflection to express the theme "Magic Of The Moment." I think it shows an example of the theme because it shows us just hanging around in gym class and enjoying the "moment" together as friends.

Andy Goldsworthy

Pinned Image
This photo of the rocks being stacked up to look like they are going further away, happens to be my favorite photo by Andy Goldsworthy. I like how even though they aren't going further away it is portrayed to look that way. He only works with natural things such as rocks, flowers, twigs etc. He also perfers to use brightly colored objects. He is considered the founder of modern rock balancing. He often uses only his bare hands, teeth, and found tools to prepare and arrange the materials.

Ansel Adams Research

He was born Ansel Easton Adams. In the sunny city of San Francisco, California on Febuary 20th, 1902. He lived a long life, but it was ended on April 22nd, 1984 in Monterery, California due to a Heart Attack. He was only 82 years old. He will be remembered for his famous artwork all done through photography. All he needed was a camera and he was set. He mainly took photographs of landscape and turned it black and white. A landscape is a photo that depicts scenery such as Mountains, Valleys, and Trees. He also belonged to the f/64 group named for the very small aperture setting which allowed for the sharp detail and extreme depth of field present in his photographs. An interesting thing about him is that, along with Fred Archer, he developed the Zone System. Which is a way to determine proper exposure and adjust the contrast of the final print.
