Husband is Soldier

My roommate made a puppet show movie short for the film festival at our school and I'm think ing it's gonna blow all those other pretentious films out of the Deep Blue Sea. (my hat is like a shark's fin)

The actual film department is probably the
worst they could ever possibly be at managing to put together a decent poster to advertise the festival. I don't think they were even going to have one this semester until someone threw something together at the last minute. How can they not simply ask one of the million art students to come up with something? Isn't there anyone in the film department that can put pictures and words on to a piece of paper in an attractive order? I'm sure there are, but I guess the head honchos don't know how to find these people and no one wants to step forward. The huge gap separating the film and art department is one of the main reasons i ended up switching my major. Also, all the good looking girls are in art.

My roommate was saying that the poster project somehow trickled down to me. How did that happen?! So i was sort of indirectly asked to come up with something if i had time. I thought about it, but when I realized my roommate's film would be in it I decided to make a poster specifically for his. Who cares about the rest? (nobody) Just go see this one! (ok!)

The other day I was emailed the actual poster for the festival. I think you're supposed to study or do some research before you look at it because it doesn't make any sense if you don't. On the right is the one i made for my roommate.

And here is the film. Enjoey! (lawrence)

More noods

Here are a few drawings from class. This is me experimenting with watercolor crayons and how they interact/react/cooperate/get along/fightcrime/and work with water. This is definitely my favorite class this semester and I'm gonna try to take many more life drawing classes when ever I can. The harderst part is working so quickly and under a time limit because these are human beings i'm working with! They live, breathe, eat, drink, play video games, sleep, eat, sing, and move just like you and me. I'm also not really used to drawing on such a big scale so this class has been testing me a lot like the movie Running Man with Arnold S. It's really a big help, and if nothing else i get to just look at naked people. AWKWARD! (or is it?)

these are way too big to fit in my scanner so i'm sorry for the crappy photos... i'm not a robot!
