We All Live In a Yellow Submarine...

I have seen general objects in a new light




Oh i have seen the light. Oh i have.


I'll explain, At the very start of the course, we were each given an object, which was of a certain colour, mine was yellow, we were then told to collect 10 more objects that were different shades of yellow. At the time i wouldn't have guessed why, but this became apparent the other week.


The time came to bring in my objects, and we were put into groups, which were everyone with the same colour object groups, then we had to arrange our objects into some sort of colour wheel, which catagorised the objects we brought in. It was a blag to be fair to decide what to do with all the yellow, yellow objects...




But this was what we eventually came up with:



I don't know how obvious this looks tonally from the image but it looked pretty nice when we'd finished it.

After doing this we then merged our little spectrum with everyone else's different colour spectrums to make one, MEGASPECTRUM

Thing of beauty... Just watch the video...






There must have been about 500 objects or something like that.  Quality.

Then we got together with some complimentary colours, and had a big sexy party. It looked like this...

The one below is definitely my favourite, cause its sort of more conceptual than the others...
A day in the life of a yellow...



We've just been given a brief on Concepts and ideas which links to this,  as it's about our given colours and what they could be represented as coneptually. I'll do a full post on this later on when I've got more stuff on it, what i've got is a little on the pants side right now, except for my concept and ideas!

Think:  YELLOW IS A STAIN

... The idea I've had is to produce a series of illustrative images featuring something becoming progressively more stained yellow. At the moment the first idea branching off from that is a fish smoking, and getting yellower and shrivvelling up and dying. Should look mint.

Or something like that :)  Anyway, I'll do a full post on it when its finished.


Sound as a pound, peace!
