Weird week
This week has been quite strange, I have been very dazed and keep forgetting what days it is. I’ve not been very well, so have just been struggling through.
We got our marks back for our creative design practises module this week, I got 67%, which was good but I did feel a bit disappointed, after all the hard work and effort that I out in, I thought I may have got a little higher. But oh well, I will use the feedback I got and try and improve for next time.
This week I finished the basics of both of my body casts, front and back. I have painted them both black and now just need to finish attaching the ties to each side. Getting the front off the stand proved to be quite a struggle, I really had to force it off the stand, and some parts of the underneath layers did chip away a bit where the material is so brittle, but it stayed in one piece which is the main thing. All I need to do now is get the back off the stand and touch up the painting around the edges.
I have started to make little bits to put onto the casts, now that I have a front and back I obviously need a larger quantity of things to out on them, but I need things that are varied but also link in together and still fit with the theme. I have some things that I am definitely going to put on there, and I have just had some more photos printed so I can get them on there to. I can’t sew onto the body casts, so I may sew some of the photos onto black material and then just affix that on afterwards.
I’m looking forward to taking my final photo, and I have been thinking about different poses and positions that I want my model to be in. I think I am going to draw out some ideas in my research and see which I think will work in the studio. I want to do some shots in the studio and then try some outside and see which gives a better reaction and tells the story that I want it to.
Hopefully by the end of this week I will have finished the front of my body cast, and then in the final week I can finish the back body cast off, and that will give me enough time before I go home for Easter to be able to use the studio for the photo.
