Art Journal

In this project, was frustrating at the time. Because it was about creating a short animated video (that goes for one minute), from whatever subject I was given. The video I was asked is based upon, “The Great Train Robbery" (1963). I did my best to make good work in this project, because it was going to be tricky using the video apps, Premiere Pro and After Effects, even when I had a plan to do drawings and photos in the project. But then news hits that the University of Cumbria was going into lockdown, because of COVID-19 (coronavirus) spreading all over the world and everyone has to be in isolation, so this was going to be difficult for what I needed to do. But there is an alternative to this project.

ALTERNATIVE OUTCOME: Produce a twelve-page, A5 book comprised of three A4 sheets. (Front cover, back cover, 10 pages/5 double page spreads). As with the animation, we're looking for your clarity of understanding when editing your research combined with a playful and engaging delivery in the terms of your use of language, layout and illustration. Basically, the book design should be informative and fun! And then putting the work together on onedrive folders where it will be delivered as a PDF booklet. So with the work I've done, before the lockdown, I used with what I got, like the writing of the storyboards and the research I used about "The Great Train Robbery, 1963," so I get to work on creating the book. Starting with some rough drawing ideas, before creating an A5 size book with three sheets of A4 paper. After the rough drawings were done, I straight away get started, using both pen and pencil to draw in the book about "The Great Train Robbery, 1963". I didn't have any other art materials, because when I went home during the lockdown, I forgot to take most of my art equipment. So I'd to make do with what art equipment and materials I got. When the drawings were done and handed to my tutors Dwayne and Tony, they told me, that the main title needs to be more visible and using the colours like dark blue as night made it a little tricky to what's happened in 1963, with "The Royal Mail" train.But at the end of this I've done something, instead of lazying around in my house in lockdown.
