Point of view stage 3: Experimenting

Inspiration:

Chanced upon this story about books. I find it quite interesting and it actually inspired me to come up with my final 6 ideas for this project. 😀

My final idea for this project is to use 6 sequential composition to tell a story. The end product will be a story book.

Here are the 6 ideas:

  • Books from the Point of View of a bookshelf are residents.
  • A Book from the Point of View of a toddler is a world of fantasy.
  • Books from the Point of View of a student are trash/nightmares.
  • A Book from the Point of View of a bookworm is solace/escape.
  • Books from the Point of View of a mother are dust collectors.
  • A Book from the Point of View of a tree is reincarnation.

With these ideas in mind, I went to take more photos. To be honest the photos are mostly taken randomly and  based on instinct.

My progress so far…

Besides taking more photos, I also tried to draw the first composition. This is the first time I try using Wacom tablet to draw in photoshop. It took a day for me to get more used to using the tablet and at some point of time I got impatient and decided to scan my hand-drawn illustrations and then edit from there. *sigh*

I spent 2 days on the first composition and I have to say…photoshop is really tough man…* sigh* what’s more to come? ><
