Art Network

    Final Comp of my ART Network logo. What I started with was eventually a refined comp in my final  pass. People seemed to like it.

Time Warp!

    These are my images I picked for the camera study. Shorpy is a great site. Look at all that resolution. 
   I chose this one simply because of the imagery and the story it could tell. Romantic comedy breakup scene? Probably. But I also liked the simple movement I could imply with little buggy and walking woman. 


 I picked this image only because of how layer rich it could be. Specifically the counters, and to a smaller extend, maybe the people themselves. A slow pull from down the walkway to a full shot could look really great if I can work out really clean layers and maintain a sharp image. I can imagine it used in an old worker's rights sort of documentary. 
  
  •     This interest was of interest to me just for animation possibilities. The boy, the ball, the street, the cars, and the buildings can all be layered. I’d love to tell an all-American story of a boy and baseball. This could be a really great action shot with subtle movements with the boy and the ball.

 
    I chose this image because at first glance it reminds me of an adventurous rapscallion exploring the docks against his parent’s will. Upon further reflection, I see it more of a desperate struggle to survive, as this child seems very drowsy and tired, which a story I’d like to tell. My only withdraw about selecting this one is how out of focus the background is and the layering and animation problems that may evolve from that. But other than that, I would layer 4 or 5 times separating the boy and the dock with the man on the right with the boats in the back with the far background.

_A white screen is the foreground in which the logo is set. The logo is a mask opening up background footage that will always change depending, or not, on the tone of the ending show.

 _Various objects fill up the logo in various ways ranging from a liquid-ish paint to the growth of nature.

 _Quick half a second shots from the show are treated to be a solid color overlayed flash through the screen as the logo fades from the background as the transition of shots ease in and fade to a solid.

 _Paint, or other means of art, are thrown down on a white background. They pause, and or sucked into the middle and fade out as the art network logo fades in and comes to full with a pop and lock.

 _The logo forms from simple shapes, growing from a base on the blank background.
