Gelli Plate Prints

To work with the gelli plates you need these elements:

1. Gelli plate
2. roll
3. acrylic
4. sanitizing gel
5. paper
6. stencils
7. Plants such as leaves, blades of grass, flowers, petals
8. fabrics

 

If you want to experiment with this technique here you can find some tutorials:

1. Superposition of prints, use of white cork sheets or other materials to capture the texture on the inked gel plate.

White cork can be used in three different ways as shown in the following videos:

2. Superposition of prints, use templates or plant elements that mask some areas.

3. Inking of the gel plate taking care of the aesthetics, composition and color to transfer the result to adhesive tape that you will stick to different supports.

4. Finally, you will experiment with templates made with thermal adhesive and gun, you can use them for stencils by spraying paint or stamping. You can finally enrich your drawing with permanent markers. (It does not use gel plate but you can combine both techniques by superimposing the prints)

Dividing a line segment into equal parts

Let’s start by drawing our name with a lot of creativity.

To perform this exercise you must learn to divide a segment into equal parts. But warning! it is very important to know how to do parallel with square and bevel.

Here you can see how to do parallels.

Last year we did a very nice job applying it to making your name. We are going to do a brief review and we are going to apply it to the construction of regular polygons.

The order you have to follow to watch the videos is as follows:

1. Thales Theorem

2. Doing a margin on the sheet (opcional)

3. Second task : Divide a segment

4. General Method

Materials

These are the materials that you need for this course 2020-2021:

  • Set of rulers (30 cm, square and bevel)
  • A4 size Sketchbook (Canson, Senator, Centauro) 130 gr or 150 gr.

Anamorphic illution

This month you can visit at the CAC in Malaga, The exhibition by Stephan BaLkenhold, who carves wood to create sculptures of people in different sizes, as well as interesting reliefs.

Here you can watch a video about one anamorphic illusion:

 

In this video you can see how to draw a hole on your sketchbook.

Stopmotion

Stop motion (hyphenated stop-motion when used as an adjective) is an animation technique that physically manipulates an object so that it appears to move on its own. The object is moved in small increments between individually photographed frames, creating the illusion of movement when the series of frames is played as a fast sequence. Dolls with movable joints or clay figures are often used in stop motion for their ease of repositioning. Stop motion animation using plasticine is called clay animation or «clay-mation». Not all stop motion requires figures or models; many stop motion films can involve using humans, household appliances and other things for comedic effect. Stop motion can also use sequential drawing in a similar manner to traditional animation, such as a flip book. Stop motion using humans is sometimes referred to as pixilation or pixilate animation.

Here you have a selection of movies made with stopmotion animation:

Tim Burton movies:

The Nightmare before Christmas

The Corpse Bride:

Coraline is an American animated film written and directed by Henry Selick, based on the novel by Neil Gaiman Coraline and premiered for the first time in movie theaters on February 6, 2009 in the United States and on June 5 in Spain.

From director Wes Anderson (Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums) comes FANTASTIC MR. FOX, based on the book by Roald Dahl.

And The Isle of dogs:

Kubo and the Two Strings is a 2016 American 3D stop-motion fantasy actionadventure film directed and co-produced by Travis Knight (in his directorial debut), and written by Marc Haimes and Chris Butler.

STOPMOTION CON PERSONAS (PIXELACIÓN)

La animación con personas se llama pixelación. Se trata de que realice la acción una o varias personas mientras les vas haciendo fotos.

Esta técnica también es genial porque puedes tener un protagonista muy realista que sería muy difícil de conseguir con plastilina por ejemplo.
