The Journey on Fours

by Alvin


The dust storms that David posted about gave that day an "orange" hue that reminded me of sepia, which in turn made me nostalgic - so the whole day felt like I was living a past memory.

So today it's a treat back to memory lane with some old animatic like video I made a couple of years ago; or "cinematic comics" as I've called this particular style of video making.

This particular vid is called "The Journey on Fours"; an assignment that centered on creating a socially response-able artwork that would be showcased at a gallery night with the trimmed red carpet treatment. So I chose the theme of "refugees" & all the sub-themes that came with it & made a story about a caravan of animals journeying to a better place; drawing for pretty much 6 or so days straight & editing it all in 1 day - it was quite the challenge that paid off.

I won a small class award for this piece & got a pleasing number of acclaim for it, so as an artist I was very proud of this little engine that could.

The vid is about 20 minutes long & for the sake of youtube, I had to divide the video in half for viewing.



part one


part two


If you'd like to see it on youtube just head over here for the first half, remembering to leave room for dessert as you follow through with the last & second remainder.
