Good afternoon!
This week has flown by, and had both its ups and downs. But school-wise, it has been fantastic! And my mom is coming on wednesday! Not for a super awesome reason, but she is coming anyway!! Yay!
So this week I have a few things to show, both school related and personal, as promised!
First, for 2D Design I had to draw the shape of an animal using only hands. I picked a Lion, Squid, and Flamingo:
For the final drawing I am going to choose the Flamingo! My teacher really liked my drawings and brought them to her department meeting!
For my 4D, we had to make a song! I decided to make mine really creepy, and it has 3 distinct parts. The whole feeling is to be "inside the mind of a killer." The beginning is the "stalking/hunting' part, the middle is the "killing" part, and the end is where he "gets caught." The photo is one that I found on Flickr, I couldn't upload a song to YouTube without video content so I had to choose something.
The photo is "Fog" by Chrismatos.
Lastly, I did go to puppy town! So what I have to show is my two new friends!
SO CUTE!
Next week I will hopefully have some video footage to go along with my song! I hope you all have a fabulous weekend/week!

Hello All!
What a week! I have to say that this is the first stressful week that I have had here. I think for a few days I went insane...
....yeah pretty much. I literally had assignments on top of assignments! I knew that it would happen, they basically warned us in the acceptance package. But, the good news is that I finished all of them on time. PHEW! For the stop motion GIFs, my professor said that we all had to redo them, so that was a struggle. Instead of having a week, he gave us 3 days! And then my 3D and 2D profs just piled on the homework, but I handled it. Also along with having 8,000,000 assignments to do, I also had a stomach infection BUT I think I am finally in the clear. I don't have much to show you this week....but I do have a few things!
It was 9/11 this week, so my school made a memorial and put it up on the deck for everyone to see:
It was really sad, a bunch of people wrote their memories of that day, or a few words to the people who were lost. The memorial made me feel proud to go to a school that remembers that tragic day in a really understated and classy (and artsy) way.
So for art, I have three things.
1.) I drew some princesses. I love Disney, and my two roommates Sam and Sarah (psst Hi)
are going to work there one day. We all went to Magic Kingdom two weeks ago and I was so excited that I had to draw:
Yep. Ariel I think is the better one of the three.....(Pocahontas looks like she's having a great time...). And Belle, well it was the first time that I drew her so practice makes perfect.
2.) This is my revised airplane GIF! It is slower than the first, and instead of taking off and landing, it is just constantly flying:
And 3.) This is a drawing I had to do for 2D. We had an image (Audrey) and we had to draw it upside down:
The initials on the left are from people in my class who thought mine was one of the best!!!! THAT WAS SO EXCITING AND NICE!!!!! I am really enjoying school, even with the huge workload, and can't wait to get started on my next 4D project. We have to pair music and video together to create moods, and one of the examples to work from (or just to get ideas from) was the opening credits from
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo:
SO COOL. That is exactly what I want to do when I am older. I want to be the person who makes the opening credits. It is amazing how they matched the images and videos to the beats in the music. It really is inspirational.
Tonight I am going to PuppyTown: a place where you sit down in a pen and they put puppies in there with you and you get to play with them...
Who knew that places like this existed? WHY ISN'T THERE A 10 MILE LINE TO GET IN EVERYDAY?! I can't wait. I promise next week I will do some random sketching so I can hopefully put more of my artwork on this.
Thanks for reading! Have a good week! xo
Oh, and to my sister Payson....HAPPY BIRTHDAY I LOVE YOU! I hope you have a great birthday and that your present from me makes you look like this:
Hello! Thanks for taking the time to read my blog! I am new to this so it is kind of different. For those of you who don't know, my name is Hannah and I am a freshman at Ringling College of Art and Design! I am majoring in motion design (it's sort of like graphic design and computer animation rolled into one). I started three weeks ago and so far I have improved and learned so much. I have made such great friends and already can't imagine my life without them. I will post every week with an update about what is going on, and I will include projects that I have completed! So I don't have much to show you right at the moment, most of my work has been turned in, but I do have a few things! I did this assignment for my 2D Drawing & Design class. Right now we are learning about shapes and line quality, along with scale and proportion:
This frog was also done in my 2D Drawing & Design class. We focused on basic shapes and then went in with darker lines to accentuate the figure:
For my 4D Design class we had to create 3 animated GIFs. We were only allowed to have 15 frames so that is why it is so fast! I only have one to show right now, so this will have to do, it's an airplane taking off and flying above the clouds and then landing:
Last but not least I had to do a photo shoot of an interesting object so I chose a Barbie that I had made for a friend (Shout out to my darling Asher!). I had to take photos of her in all different angles, and this is one:
(Yes I know, so creepy).
I will upload more by the end of next week when I get more stuff back from my teachers! Now I am off to the photo studio to shoot my other GIFs and edit them for tomorrow mornings class!
