Animex festival

http://animex.tees.ac.uk/student_awards.cfm

This is another animation festival which fits the description in relation to the length of my animation, for this animation I am not limited by the time frame of my animation because this brief excepts anything. I am thinking about entering this competition but I am very sceptical because the information provided by Animex is not very specific and could be considered to be too vague.

Finding festival or competition to enter

http://www.animation-festivals.com/animation-festivals-free-to-submit/

I have been looking to enter my potential animation into, I found this site which lists many different animations festivals worldwide, my objective is to look through a few of them and narrow my juices down to a few. The animation I am creating is going to be a 1min long so I need to make sure that I pick a festival which fits this description.

Adam Fuchs also known as Lil Fuchs is an animator/freelance professional who works on many different animations for various clients, he has done work for many different musicians and adultswim. He is responsible for the work of zodiacshit a lot of the his work features a reacquiring theme/pattern of working on a multicoloured backgrounds and very visually expressive imagery in motion. I will be using his site a primary research to build an understanding of is work because I want to apply similar techniques to my own work, an approach will need to be developed not really sure what my intentions are at the moment.

 

Zodiac shit

The inspirational piece which has trigged my idea is flying lotuses zodiac shit because it is very experimental with its colours and style. I like the transition from one image to another and the way in which they connect, the narrative is all about the months of the Chinese zodiac. I am inspired to do my own piece which follows this them in relation to months but uses colours and women to communicate feeling almost similar to inside out and how the characters represent emotion based on colour. I want my characters to represent emotion and colour, the theme for now is to develop 12 different characters for each month with a representation of different colours.
