I have enjoyed the research I have done on childrens books ( alot of it was simpliy sitting in a bookstore and reading kids book....people stare) I also enjoyed learning about the movie making process.

Final Propsal

My Final project will be a children's book describing the process of making a movie. I remember loving books when I was a kid the explained things, like the post office or airports. I wanted there to be a book about making movies. So many children think that movies just appear and have no clue about how much work goes into them. I want children to appreciate the movies they see and know that their are more to movies than just the celebrities.
The book will be a simple format with a sewn binding. I plan on covering the binding using Film strips and splicing tape. The book will be in Grey scale but very cartoony. I like very graphic images and I have heard that children resonp better with a grey scale stimulus than color. I love movies so much so I think this will be fun learning about the process and interprating it in a way that children can understand and appreciate. I am also using my knowlage from my Art Education courses to help make my artistic choices in the book. I have learned alot about how children learn and I hope to translate this in my book.

Animation

This is my Animation test. The beginning part of the film was corrupted due to using an old tape. WILL POST WHEN INTERNET ISN"T BEING STUPID!

My Artist Book

My book is pretty simular to my prototype. I found it difficult to get the book to hang properly. I think that after this project I might use this as an actual purse. I love that it is made from Pride and Prejudice. I just feel like I am so close to the book.

I Like the idea of making books with pages that are not bound. I like being able to leaf through pages, so that it isn't only in one way.

I added a wax seal with my initial because I feel that it matches the old world charm of the book. It also marks the book as mine.
