!!THESIS STATUS!! [horrid, yet hopeful....]
This is a visual conception of what happened, is happening, and what hopefully will happen in the future with my thesis film Healing of Snow.
These are the three stages of myself:
The first [in the back] is an Autumn representation of my pulling my film along the winding yellow-striped [instead of brick] road from last year and this past summer. I am looking straight at my film, focused on my goals.
The second [the pouting middle one] is a Winter representation of what I'm currently heading towards [hence the background coinciding with winter and my film]; a lot of procrastinating pauses and frustrating adjustments are happening with the film, and I'm in my PJs more often than not because I rarely go out these days [not because I'm simply rebellious >wink<]. Yes, I do actually get more white hairs when stressed. In this version, I'm looking away from my film, with increasing difficulty to concentrate, but I still haven't let go of the rope.
The third [the closest to the viewer] is a Spring representation of what I hope to look like after completion of my film. This version is clean, dolled-up, ready-to-party-because-it's-time-to-GRADUATE! I am looking at my film in its entirety at the final stretch of the road, ready to let go of the rope [or cut it free], bent over from exhaustion, and the viewer can't see my face [because well, it hasn't happened yet]. Hopefully this road will end with another beginning!

PRAGUE 2011
This past June, 16 other classmates, two Film / Video faculty members from CalArts, and I went to Prague in the Czech Republic for 2 weeks. We went to learn about the country's history in animation and how it molded their culture over the past years. We were fortunate to go to Svankmajer's Studio, Studio Anima, and FAMU's Aurel Klimt's Studio. Below are a few sketches of the places we went to [iconic landmarks]. Also, HERE are my catagorized photographs from the trip.

Vertical Perspective
Looking outside to the world caged beings cannot explore--hopeful, yet deceitful.
This one is one point perspective, but with a slight upper angle looking into the home. This is what ran through my mind while drawing it: "A sound home may seem harmonious to others, but to those who live in it are caged beings that can do nothing but beat clipped wings until exhausting to death...and others wouldn't know why."

New Perspective Stuff
Haven't posted for a while. Not doing so well in the art world--I'm wondering if I'm in the right field....
This piece is a sketch a la Tim Burton--his prom date getting ready in front of a vertical mirror. Two point perspective, with reflection on the floor [without copying and pasting]. Oh, and she's pulling off her fake flesh for a more fresh corpse look.
