Docudraft

George Lucas Documentary Draft.

Start

Voice Over ... talking about the schools and ideas that George Lucas got in his younger years and where he grew inspirations

Clips and Panning of Art Works Talking about techniques and Things he did different to create unique films that grasped everyone watching

Middle
Id talk about his style and how its evolved and adapted over the years

Ending
Close with a summary of his basic principles. His own thoughts on his work. How his films and how he is reflected and aged over the years.


Basically this is a really rough draft how i want the concept to go. I want to make it like a story George Lucas would have made, but nothing to complex as that differs from the idea of a documentary based on his art style his life and his legacy.

Work Update 3-20-16

Since the last time we started i had started on the UFO that i was creating for Kyle. As Kyle no longer needed it i decided to work on it still for those 2 weeks or so after i needed up losing everything when i lost my USB and found it wiped in the IMC.

Starting from a frame that was only 1 dimensional. I had no scales or anything it was all hand traced.


Ending up with this 3-d model in 2 weeks with the occasional down time of talk or down time of lesson plans or other odds and ends being shown to us. This will be done by spring break with the extra free time I have.

George Lucas

George Lucas

George lucas is well known for his contributions and creativity behind Star Wars. Even through the trouble of over budgeting and the opinion of the network already considering Star Wars as a loss. George still directed a movie that become the highest grossing film of all time. Following classic plot points of the hero saving the princess, but telling it in a way untold since the birth of film. George Lucas certainly started what is known to be as scifi genre. He borrowed many of his shots of the film and grew inspiration from early ww2 documentaries and movies at the time. Also being friend with steven speilburg since his USC college days he often asked for opinions on his films. Steven told him Star Wars was perfect and George Lucas had self doubt. Something he couldnt get ride of untill the late 90's when he started making films again. George lucas enjoyed the concept of none narrative films. I enjoy George's earlier works as a director,writer and a producer. 

Star Wars Episode 4.. Only Star Wars film he directed that was apart of the original trilogy.

The Artist I choose

I choose George Lucas as my artist. Not only because Star Wars has been integrated into culture and how inspiring his films where, but also how he pushed technology advances for films in 2 different centuries.



I pick dis one.

Finally Layering

LAYERING 

Takashi Murakami

- Contemporary Japanese artist
- Works in fine arts such as Painting and Sculpting 
- Also works in commercial media such as Fashion , Painting and Sculpting 
- Coined the term superflat
- Superflat is a post modern art movement influenced by anime/manga

Takashi was born and raised in Tokyo, Japan. From a little boy he was inspired and dedicated to anime and animation. He ended up attending T.U.A (Tokyo University of the Arts). Majored in Nihonga known as "Traditional" style for Japanese paintings. Being discovered was hard and he stated since early on a frustration with the lack of a reliable and sustainable art market in post-war Japan. So what he did was become known in western world and moved back to japan. Where he created something rooted in his Japanese culture. 


Mr.Wink , Cosmos ball by Takashi Murakami 

Things i learned where how to pull elements apart in a piece of artwork.
Takashi uses it in his scults to seperate ideas 
i can easily add layering in my models.
