Çizimler

Malesef yeni çizimlerimiz de hesaba katmadığım bir sorun çıktı. Çizdiğim karelerde kullandığım figürlerden bir süper kahraman görünümü elde etmek pek mümkün olmadı çünkü hem kostümüyle hem de fiziksel yapısıyla normal bir insana göre çok daha abartılı olması gerekiyor. Çizimlerde oynamayı deneyince pek de başarılı bir sonuç çıkmayınca hikayemi değiştirmeye karar verdim. Aşağıda çizimleri ekledim.

Çizimlere Devam

Çizimlerin elle yapılan kısmını 4te 1ini bitirdim ama çoğunu baştan çizdiğim için ekrandaki son hallerini tamamıyla olarak hazırlayamadım. Çizimlerin yeni görünüşten bir kaç görüntüyü aşağıda bulabilirsiniz.

VA401 Project Proposal

 

Project Definition

“Untitled” is an interactive comic where user can change the flow of the story

 

Objectives & Goals

This project’s main goal is entartainment. It should create a suitable environment for users to have fun but at the same time make them understand that the main theme of the comic; how we can achieve the change we want only with ourselves.

 

Target Audience/User

 

Basically all computer users  but specificky educated computer users between 15 and 30 year olds.

 

Background Information

Before i came with the “Untitled” Project, i was thinking of a Project where i would be able to create illustrations, animations, video, games, and maybe a little bit of music.  I was trying to find a clever way to do all of them, then i thought of my comics and think to convert it to something interactive and digital. By combining both i created an interactive comic where i would be able get a platform to continue illustrating and drawing, and at the same time start to animate them and even use music.

 

The main challenge is to create a comic book. I have red comic books but i have never done a comic book before. Making a comic book is different than anything i did untill this time. It is unusual  because it’s a sequental  frame by frame art and every frame should be created specifically in order to communicate correctly to the reader. The frame should contain the correct moment of that time interval. On the other hand,  a story, a script is needed to create the comic book. And in this script characters contain noticable importance to be succesfull. So, another topic is creating a character.

 

Character design is one of the fundamental concepts for artist.  When i take a look at animations, comics, games and cinema one of the crucial points of them is the characters they have created. Creating a succesfull character plays anextremely important role in the animation or game etc. For example lets take a look at the game called “Angry Birds”, i think their success depends on the characters they designed. The concept of creating an angry bird is what makes it catchy. They are succesfull characters with draws our attention. To create a succesfull comicbook basically one need to have a good character design skills.

 

Lastly because I’m making an interactive comic, i’m using a new digital platform which i’m new to and i will be learning to use that medium too.

To sum up with creating an interactive comic I will be developing my character design skills, illustration skills, story/script writings skills and the medium i will be using for it.

 

There are interactive comics books around the web but most of the time, interactive comic books don’t let user to interactively do anything. They just let the user fastforward or pause and things like that. For example here is a example of a interactive macbeth comic;

Most of the comic companies like Marvel and DC Comics started to do motion comics. Motion comics are animated versions of the comic books with sound. Becuase the media is changing comic publishing companies have started to create different style of comics. Here are some examples;

Detailed Project Description

 

“Untitled” will create an entertaining and dynamic environment for a user by letting the user control and handle events and change the flow of the story. It’s a multi branched story within the one main story under the user control which is basically linear and out of control. This way user will find himself/herself in this different situations.

 

“Untitled” is about superhero who uses his abilities and skills in exchange of money like a proffession. He is a superhero who doesn’t get any feeling of necessity to save the world every second and try to turn it to a beter place. He thinks and acts like a businessman. He makes himself available to earn a lot of great money. At some point our hero finds himself under the pressure of the society, the world want him to act as a typical superhero and save the world. At this moment he decides to teach people that they don’t need a hero to turn world in a better place. He asks himself the question should i be a superhero and save the world or should i continue as usual to make my statement clear to everyone out there in the world? This is point where the user gets to change the flow of the story. As the user chooses one of the paths; good or evil, then the rest of the story continues as it is. There 2 alternative endings in the story. If the user chooses good side at the beginning  the story ends as our hero cursing and wishing he choosed the evil side at the beginning and become rich, comfortable and don’t give a shit about a thing because the world is still the same place, he keeps rescuing and helping but nothing is changing and he is not getting anything. The second ending is available when the user chooses evil side and continue doing business with his abilities, become very rich and powerfull but at the end he sees himself as a con man becuase he abused his powers, caused corruptions. It ends as he is wishing he had choosen the good side and help the world.

Isea 2011

Cumhuriyet Sanat Galerisindeki UNCONTAINABLE & Untitled adlı sergide bence en çok dikkat çeken eserler Sean Montgomery’nin Sphere’ı, Daan Roosegaarde’nin Lotus 7.0’si ve Gregory Laserre & Anais met den Ancxt’ın Lights Contacts  ve Ak­ous­maflore eserleriydi. Sphere hoş bir interaktif esere benziyor ama sanatçının performansını/müziğini dinleyemediğim için sonuç kafamda biraz muallak. Lotus 7.0 görsel olarak çok hoştu, hem renk hem hareket hem de interaktiflik olarak güzel bir eser olmuş. Akousmaflore ile Lights Contacts’ın interaktifliği de şaşırtıcı derece hassastı. Özellikle Akousmaflore da en ufak bir yaprağa dokunmakta dahi sesler geliyordu. Bienal’da gördüğüm en etkileyici eserlerden biri ise Ala Younis’in kurşun askerleriydi. 1:200 ölçekte 12.235 adet askeri büyük bir panelin üzerine dizmişti.

İlgi Alanlarım

Küçüklükten beri resme ve çizime çok meraklıydım, çizmeyi hiçbir zaman bırakmadım. Hayatıma yön verirken dahi çizmeyi bırakmamalıyım diye düşündüm. En sevdiğim uğraşlardan biri olduğu kesin Müzik hayatımda oldum olası olmuş bir öğedir. Küçükken 4 yıl gitar çaldım son 9-10 yıldır davul çalmaktayım. Sadece bir müzik türü de değil bir çok müzik türünü severim, araştırırım, dinlerim, çalarım. Hayatımda bırakamadığım en büyük ilgi alanlarımdan biridir. Sinema, video, animasyon ise son 4-5 yıldır dikkatimi daha da çeken, ilgimin arttığı birkaç dal.

Projem

Projemin henüz kafamda tam olarak netleşmemiş olmasına rağmen yapmak istediğim iş interaktif bir müzik veya video, animasyon tabanlı eser olacağı yönünde. Belki bir enstrümana bağlı bir sahne dekoru olabilir, animasyon olabilir, karışık müzik video klibi gibi olabilir.
