COP 3 - PRACTICAL DEVELOPMENT- SYNTHESIS 1

At this point In the research project I had to take a step back and question wether the work that i was going to produce really the reflected the ideas that i was throwing up in my essay. With this idea of British culture being splintered through age, ethnicity and by global influences from the the internet - readily available to almost everybody. I knew that i had to rethink the way that i was going to represent that through my work.

The way I thought about representing this was to produce an animation that incorporated local places that encapsulated what could be called traditionally British - so I chose to investigate the local market, focus on the colours in the market, the sounds and the atmospheric lighting found in each stall, the types of people found in the market etc.

I then thought about how I might represent the characters with the animation in a relative way, I then thought that using textures from the market to represent the older generation might be the best way to use the primary research that I had gathered.

The signage in the market is very distinctive and I would even go as far as saying that it is traditional - in the sense that some of the stalls in the market are businesses that stretch back many generations, so the same aesthetic/colour palette is still held on to.
