E V A L U A T I O N
Towards the end of this project I had problems with my Illustrator and couldn't get in touch with him so at the last minute I had to build a comic book on illustrator and Indesign. I am pleased with the outcome as it took a day to do. Because of this Ihave learnt not to get people to help you, just do it yourself! Overall I feel that this project went well as I was into it and really enjoying building and collecting inages and research as I got into it I knew what I wanted to do ... a comic book. Because I'm doing fashion and love japanese anime and comic books I thought it would be a cool idea to make a fashion comic book that showed the seasons trends. I based my comic book around Japan, and Englands new trend setter ... La roux, I used her for prints and textures and based it around Japans theme of fashion, trends, textiles and art work. After christmas it was hard for me to get back into this project as I had been away from it a while which I blame myself for.
My film samples where fun to make and do but when it came to the final one I had problems with that one too and was stuck on how to film a comic book so I decided to use chris cunningham orange advert as influence to show the seasons trends. I feel that I have shown this but It hasn't come out the way I was hoping of planned ... but ohh well!
I know that next time I will do a film straight away as it's the hardest thing to do I feel, all of the editing and software ... it baffles me.
Overall I feel I have achived something as this project went terribly wrong right towards the end, because of this I didn't get time to colour the images in with the colour's I picked and didn't get to show my garment that edited and changed from Alexander McQueen, but it would had appeared if I made the second part of the comic book.

ALL FILMS ARE STOP MOTION!
I did this to see how a blured image would look whilst still capturing the details of the garments. I really like the turn out of this one and considering to do something like this for my final film.
I dont like this one at, to simple and it doesn't send any message across.
again this didn't come out as well as I thought it would, think it's because I'm not very good at drawing.

I already have an idea of what kind of video I want to produce. Because I am doing a comic book I have to think of a way to film it so the audience get the concept of the idea. I'v been looking at a variety of videos on Youtube!
BLU is a graffiti artist based around in Berlin, his work consists a lot of white, outline drawings ... creepy images too with BOLD colours. I love how the visuals are constantly moving from the walls to the floors.
This could be a good and simple way of filming my comic book, as it shows the pages and detail but I feel it wont show the WHOLE concept of my idea.
HAA HAA this jokes! I like the part where the tee gets shorten and then longer.
STOP MOTION is the way forward! The more videos I research the more stop motion is being used and I really like it becuase I think it's a cool, simple effect.
AHHHHHH... I LOVE THIS VIDEO! It's such a wicked idea and I keep on coming arcoss the body art thing. I could draw the main focus points about and of my comic book on my face or body and tell the story that way with stop motion ... of course!
Not to sure how to feel about this one as it kinda creeps me out, but it shows what I was talkig about with other video above by using either my face or body to tell the comic book story.
AMAZING ... would love to do something like this but wouldn't know who to achieve it as I dont have the time or money, but if I get a team of people to help me it could be done.
CHRIS CUNNINGHAM is a LEGEND! The reason why I really like this video is that even though everyones image is still it's able to capture the moment and still tell you the meaning. The colours from the light speed too looks sick!
This is a trailer of most of Cunninghams work, the way it's been edited is what I love about it the most, It's give me an idea to shoot random images that relate to comic book and edit it in a similar way.
photocopier is what I adore, I can see my own comic book being printed with loads of different camera shots and angles.
The Main focus is the 1st minute, it's the comic book of Tank Girl being filmed ... another good way of doing it. At first I thought it was to simple and effective enough but now seeing this has changed my mind.

Considering japanese text to write the comic book, but I will need someone to translate the english to japanese and I might be able to find some help to do this, but I'm going to discuss it with my Illustrator. I have decided to make the comic book just visuals and let the images tell the story. The only words will be sounding words and front cover.

I have picked to do my comic book based around the spring/summer 2010 colours. This is because I want the comic book to be a fashion styler without the reader realising until the very end.
