Website Link

Here is the link to my new website. I'm working on uploading the videos. That seems to be the only snafu. 

a gif from me to you

I wanted to do stop motion for this gif because I love stop motion movies. I was especially inspired by filmmaker Jan Svenkmajer and his bizarre version of Alice in Wonderland. 

Vector Self-Portrait

For my vector self-portrait, I was inspired by the Wes Anderson film, 'The Royal Tenenbaums'. I dressed up as Margot Tenenbaum and tried to evoke her sort of melancholy, wistful demeanor. I chose Margot Tenenbaum because she represents a strong, interesting, independent female character- something you don't often see in movies anymore. All of his Wes Anderson's films have 60's vibes, hence the warm colors I used. I found the vector process painstaking, but I do like the original picture I took.

Brad's House (visual poetry)

I'm working on a poem, possibly a series of poems based around this character, Brad. This is an excerpt from one of the poems. He's sort of the athlete archetype, with a typical nuclear family, but there is  underlying tension.
