I was sick for the second meeting in the Digital Arts Workshop, but I did prepare a Visual Plan for the beginning stages of writing the storyboard.
The decision was made to use a style similar to that of Tim Burton and also of contemporary artist Tom Haney. Both artist use earth toned themed worlds that show the blending of man and machine. This seems appropriate towards the project since we are working with machines. The Workshop itself is a representation of machine becoming more and more important to us in our everyday lives. Although it may sound a little too deep" for the situation, I think its important to be thinking as artist along with thinking as an educator in the field we are working within.
The plan worked out and we have drawn up character models and scenery sketches with the kids. We plan on creating our storyboard with them next week.
