Life drawing - Lesson 10


These drawings are from our life drawing class that was on the 6th of December:

For the first exercise we were given 20 minutes to draw the model. For this class I decided to use a black biro. I believe that using biro enabled me to suggest texture that was on the model's scarf and help with definition and shade on the model. 



For this exercise we were given 10 minutes to complete drawings of the model in different positions. I decided to try and focus on the clothes that the model was wearing to try and make the materials seem realistic.



For the last exercise we were given 20 minutes to complete a sketch of the model. I used coloured biro for this pose as I believe that it gives the model more character.

Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind (2004) - Non-linear storytelling

Figure 1. Movie poster (2004) Non-linear methods: Chronicle (Linear storytelling)  - The film starts off  with a non-linear storytelling method.

Film review: A Knight's Tale (2001) - A Hero's journey

During today's lecture we looked into depth on Joseph Campbell's monomyth theory on the 17 stages of 'A Hero's Journey' and how the stages are very evident in films such as Star Wars: A New Hope (1977) and The Matrix (1999). The theory has 3 acts which come together to form the 17 different stages in A Hero's Journey.  Below is a diagram to explain Campbell's theory: Figure 1. Joseph Campell - 17 Stage Monomyth - A Hero's Journey (1949) The film that I am using to help prove this theory is A Knight's Tale (2001). Figure 2. Original Movie Poster (2001) Stage 1 - The call to adventure: The Knight that William (Heath Ledger), the knight's servant, works for, dies, meaning that William, along with all of the Knight's over servants, are left without a job. As the servants worry what to do next and panic as they haven't eaten in three days, one of the King's servants come over on a horse and explains that the Knig
