To get a picture I'm my head of what the ocean from under neath looks like, I have decided to visually, gather resources of what the world of the "mermaid" may live in, and I have have found images of mermaids them selves, (though i found this quite difficult


CORAL

I feel that this view looks like a real version of finding Nemo.

Looking at Coral helps me to visualise what kind inviroment of what the mermaid lives in, and helps with the back story to where she could have come from

OCEAN FLOOR
These images help with lighting and shading with in the scenes, of how the light is menipulated with in the water, how at difforent depths the light is effected, how the world of the ocian looks.




MERMAIDS


these help me with the position of the charecter for when I draw her, though, you could draw a normal person with a fishtale in replace of there legs, but it is mainly floating and through looking up on these images, it will be hard to create this in the way this is ellegent enough to be believeable.


SHIP WRECKS

an idea about a scene placed around a ship wreck. I had decided to gather visual evidence of ship wrecks and on how they look.


some of these images look depressive the way they just lay there dormant with time forgetting about them. strangely I think this would be cool to see this ship on dry land in this position and with all its wreckage, just to then look around the ship it self, not with it being complete and grand like it is supposed to be, but with it being like this, due to that I think it would tell a completely different story again.

(though having this thought this has spared me into a story mood of the world loosing all its water and groups of people live in old ship wrecks like this....and the world being a desert, and people fighting over for water and oil... this could be in a kind of Mad Max style... OKOKOK back the project)


I like the way ocean has taken over the ships, being once man man now apart of the ocean its self, making the once fully man made harshness of the ship, into something more elegant.






BUBBLES
^these where the type of bubbles I was looking at, of that I saw on a documentary about the Bermuda Triangle^

strangely hard to find ocean images of bubbles, as in legitimate bubbles that where not normal every day bubbles and nor CG or Photoshoped bubbles

although It seems from another country my friend showed me this lady and I really like the way she uses the sand to dictate the story it’s called the Art of Sand and, apparently it’s a really sad story but I cant work out the language.

for a while now there has been a small debate about the look of my profile, with Allison, and from now I hope the earache should end.

(its been something that's been bugging me, so now I hope this willl be the end of the mini battle)

:D

My next idea is to put the chase scene into a sunken ship to place the scene and to give the scene more interest.

it was suggested by Allison on another way to put the umbrella into the scene and she suggested a sunken ship and it being propped up, through this idea I thought why not base the whole idea in a giant sunken ship.

I then remembered the Working Lunch intro, though this is a small element of inspiration
(and the music is something I don't like too well)

the intro is just a very basic idea of what could happen...

La Jetee

La jetee I found was strange... creepy but cool, it gave a sense of the previous project of the uncanny, it gave me awaiting suspense of something big was going to happen. I really like the way the stills guide the story along and then are moved farster to Hint movement, till at one point they use an actual peace of film its self, of the lady.



This image/women became repeatedly potent with the film and seemed like a strange destiny to try and find out who she was. though I could connect with this myself where I've had memoriea in the past where I'de like to find out more or re-live that memory.




It was mainly at first these parts that kind of freaked me out, as at first he was discribing it as i kind of turture, so i was suspecting, something harsher when these scenes came along.


though this image reminds me of some figure out of Warhammer Games Workshop/it has now given me another insite to the world that guy now lives in.

Random scribblings with a random story

My objects are, as I've clarified already

Mermaid

Umbrella

"elevator"

umbreller is on the boat to clarify where the umbrella came from

(the fish is the elevatr)


the story I hope isn't too complex and I hope not too short or too shabby, it is in early days and this is a concept

(I cant also seem to make a neat scan on my scanner/I may start to use photo shop in stead)
