We were briefed on the final task for PPP and it was to create an animated self. It could be as abstract as you like, or it can focus on skills that you want to improve on or try and work on specific aspects of animation that you wish to specialize in.
So without giving it a lot of thought, I decided that with this project I want to mainly focus on animating and working out how to draw movement.
I tried thinking of other things I love besides drawing, and the first one that came to my mind was dancing. In one of my first blog posts i talked about how much Thoughts Of You by Ryan Woodward inspired me, how much I love Sonya Tayah dark and twisted choreography, and how I wish I could create an animation based on those things. So this is the perfect brief to do so.
I did not do a lot of idea generating, because I wanted to start animating as soon as possible, so I sped up the pre-production stages. I took the first idea that came to me and stuck with it. I wanted to focus on the dynamics of a ballet dancer, but since I am not a choreographer I decided to use the basic ballet positions and moves, and intertwining them in an abstract way, avoiding making actual choreography.
