Well, it’s been way too long since I’ve posted here, but you know, life just gets in the way sometimes… Or for like… Years! Anyway, I have much to talk about, I just need to find the time.
It goes without saying that 2020 has been an incredibly difficult one, from devastating bushfires to coronavirus and remote learning/teaching in my day job. 2020 has taken its toll on everyone.
In stark contrast to the sweltering heatwave and endless smoke-haze days at the beginning of the year, the past weekend was a cold, typically rainy, mid-June winters day. I decided cosy up and use a small sketch in my notebook to create a linocut print, and finally a finished logo.
This was really my first endeavour into filming my process. Editing over 30 minutes of footage into a little over 2 minutes was trickier than I’d anticipated. I got it all together though over the weekend and was able to share this with my VCE Visual Communication Design students today as they commence Unit 4 VCD. This short video led into the class for the day, and hopefully it inspired them.
