First Term

I thought I'd post up pictures of some work from my first completed Term at University.

For our Props project we were asked to design and produce a puppet of a bird that was loosely based around the style of the puppets used in the play 'Avenue Q'. I designed the character of a carnival-style bird and made it from foam, fake fur, feathers and moulded plastic for the beak and eyes. Sorry, the picture isn't the best quality!

For the costume project, we were given the brief to make a mask. I designed a Day of the Dead style sugar skull mask with a nautical theme as a costume for a pirate character. I made the mask using bukram and layered tissue and newspaper, and decorated it with acrylic paints, string and ink.

Finally, some pieces from my Visual Studies work. The tasks included producing a plant model made from various material and featuring body parts (strange I know!), drawing a celebrity portrait/caricature and drawing eyes and mouths.
