The 11th week - Milestone 2 presentation and more…
On Thursday it was time for the Milestone 2 presentations and, just as the last time, it was very interesting to see the progress made in the other projects. I also got some feedback from the others which was valuable. Since I was first up to do my presentation I could spend the rest of the day, listening to the other presentations and at the same time do some sketching. I was experimenting with the final composition of the scene, using traditional composition tricks like “the rule of thirds”, “the golden ratio” and diagonal lines. Doing so many fast sketches in a row, all of them portraying almost identical landscapes with those distinct cliffs in the center of each piece, made me think of the main character Roy Neary in “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” (1977) :D . (I haven’t yet sculpted the cliffs, using mashed potatoes though, but I feel this strange urge) :D .
Jokes aside… I put most of them together, with a couple of digital ones in these two collections…

During Friday, me, Öyvind and Mattias rigged a green screen, camera dolly, lighting and set for filming the footage needed for our projects. The filming itself will be done the following week.
Here’s a shot of the rigged green screen (more photos will be published next week):
