Reflections - 6 ways to remember...

Over the Christmas holidays we were asked to make something to remember something by...
(I don't think that made sense)
Either way I came up with six ways to remember my Disney Holiday I went on with my 7 friends from school last year.



 
 



















After extensive planning and thinking about how I could possibly portray my holiday in more ways than just pictures and video. 
I came up with a few ways to do it, however I was planning on writing a musical but it was just to complicated and I wouldn't have been able to do it the way I wanted so I made my Alice in Wonderland outfit instead! 








 This was the contents of my project. However the majority of my ways to remember where online on a tumblr I had made anyway. 

I had already made this tumblr with plans to add to it when I went on other holidays, sort of like a travel blog however I used it for this instead!

As the majority of the content is on there I don't really need to repost it onto this post. However with my art work (that does look rather childish) I thought I could put it on here. 

I used ink to paint, and made the shapes by painting water onto the page and then dripping ink onto where the water was, so that is why they look like a 3 year old has painted them, its just I technically had very little control over where the ink went so it was a surprise to me that they actually turned out like they did. 





Squirt from Finding Nemo


Nemo from Finding Nemo (even though he looks a lot like Marlin)
He does look slightly terrifying with the weird eye thing.





The two parts of the castle, are actually one, but to scan them in I had to do it in two bits. This represents the firework shows and displays that we watched almost every night. I quite like that they have been separated though, it looks quite cool!
Even though it is a simple image and concept it reminds me of my holiday even if it doesn't mean anything to anyone else.

The last thing that was not on my tumblr blog was my diary. 
I had written notes on my phone when I was out at Disney to remind me of what we did and along with the photos and videos it was easy to remember what had happened. 
I tried to make it look like I had written it a week after so it looks rough as well and not neat and how a diary should look!
















I don't really understand why some of them are the wrong way round but there we go! They should be in the right order, I'm really not good at this scanning thing. 

















And now to finish the longest post ever!

The final (rough cut) of almost the entire video for Disney... there was so much footage (45GB to be precise) I may have to make another few videos...
This version is ungraded and colour corrected, it also needs some sound adjustments hence why it is the rough cut!!!
(it would not let me embed the video so here is the link...)



Tis is end of this ridiculously long blog post!
