The Octopus' first movie...

GReen Screen fun

Stupid Poe...

Trying to make Poe look like he's floating through the air....

The white carousel will be photoshoped out... It's all I had to hand... i must make a crane...

Today at college...

This be sky...

This be desk...

This be Poe...

Finally got round to animating the octopus...

A very scary hairy day....

I begun by sewing each hair individually....

After completing two layers I was fed up...

For the next billion layers I created one layer of knotted wool sewn on to the head...

The back of the head when complete, it turns out I could leave this area bald as his hair is massive as it is...

From the back, showing the layer of knotted wool...

Shwish! (not a spelling mistake... I hate that advert!)

Masses and masses of hair!

Mr Poe's side parting...

The hair reaches the full length of the body and I am too scared to cut it cos It looks so funky so I have tied it back instead...

I think I spent way too much time on the head!

I hate sewing... Took me ages to make the trousers! the rest are just temporarily placed bits of fabric...




(Stupid mustasch won't stay straight... looks like he's been attacked by a spider!@!)

All white

Head mould part 1 didn't work, I'm a little weary of plaster apparently and used too much water, all is well though as I have made another which has already set and has two coats of liquid latex which are taking forever to dry in this cold.

So in the mean time I have been coming up with more set ideas like this one where all is white. I will add more items and take a photo for a backdrop. This will be my sky...
