Exhibitions!

Last week was exhibition week for me. Apart from the exhibition with my sister "Between Sisters", my class had a 3 weeks project with an end result of an big exhibition. 

Pictures and videos from the events below.

"Systrar emellan" - Finns att se på Skarpnäck's Kulturhus fram till den 12e November.

The entire wall with our paintings the night before opening.

 Our school group project had the theme "Distortional Evolution". We chose to project our animations and videos onto three frames hanging on the wall in our cozy living room we set up for the night of the event. This was a three weeks project which ended with an 6 hour exhibition. Overall we were 2 classes with over 100 students sharing a big space with different rooms.  

This is one of three 15 sec animations I did from an drawing and it's one of the first things I did in Adobe AE, but working on something new!

Experimenting filming an octopus arm was different...

One of the other short clips I did had a city shown in day light vs nigh light and turning into an destroyed darkened city. I was working in Illustrator and After Affects for this one. 

World Of Motion - Project Europe

Time flies when you're having fun...

Wow, a month has passed since I last posted something here. 

This school is super intense, we get project after project while having personal goals of learning softwares as well. It gets a little stressed but then again i'm having loads of fun. I wonder how it'll feel around next June when I graduate..?

I have something to show you, some behind the scenes footage. 

Again, this is filmed with my iphone so not the best quality. 

We had our first project in smaller groups on the theme World Of Motion were each group had to research an continent. We talked and mailed people, studios and production companies from the industry around the world. Each group gathered the interviews into a presentation of their own choice. Some made the presentation entirely in live action, some in 2D, 3D, keynote. My group did a mix of stop motion and 2D. We built paper landscaped that presented different parts of Europe. Southern Europe, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Central Europe etc. 

Have a look of the behind the scenes:

We have our own "rest area". It was packed with people some hours after the presentation.

         

                           

               

Life as a student

So a new chapter in life has begun. 

I'm studying Motion Graphics design at Hyper Island here in Stockholm, full time for 1 year. 

Already 2 weeks have passed and I've come to understand and feel the intensity of this school. 

We've had some interesting lectures on digital media and much more. 

There's been a lot of challenges, individual and in small and larger groups. 

Lot's of time for reflection and a lot of fun energizers!

     We also have lots of fun! Excuse the awful mobile quality...
