For the supercrit advising session I talked to Tanya. She was quite excited about the direction and potential of my project
Notes from feedback –
- Generated name – how would others interpret the name and how might that influence how the outcome would look. For example when Tanya saw the name she expected a nordic type of landscape.
- Human data – how would it feed in?
- Design around the shapes – don’t just stay within the confines. Iterations/developments etc.
- Different process for creating creatures vs landscapes?
- Physical medium could be a nice contrast.
I came out of this feedback session with a pretty good idea of where to head over the break – I need to focus on the technical execution of the artwork and how that is all going to look/ be done.
So moving forward I will create a couple of new worlds – one will be digital and the other physical. I want to spend a good amount of time on each, rendering them nicely. From here I will be able to chose which medium feels right and works the best. Digital fits well within the project, and is most common for concept artworks, but I am much more experienced and comfortable with physical. Physical also could be a great final piece as it is breaking away from the computer and creating it within my world, but still very much decided in collaboration with the computer.
