Chris ware Papercraft

I found these also to be really inspiring, i love how detailed yet simple they are, much like his comics & other work.........http://www.niemworks.com/else/acmetoys.html
i like this design because of some of the extra bits you get with it, i.e the pizza box, it had made me think about adding possible extra bits to my final design.
i have to chosen to look at this design because it ties in with the robot theme in my work, it has given me some ideas for shapes & how the features could look,
here is something that has helped inspire my flat-pack robot idea for the instructional diagram brief. i am a fan of this design but i want to move away from the solid vector design. in my piece i would like to use hand painting techniques to give a more authentic and desirable look.

Rotoscoping

Also in the introductory lecture we talked about Rotoscoping. i instantly got reminded of one of my favorite music videos "Shoot The Runner" by Kasabian. it is made entirely from rotoscoping......http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2C0OEVWKZv0

Zoetrope!!

This is an image produced by Eadweard Muybridge. it was shown to us in the introductory lecture on Zoetropes, i was immediately inspired by the task of getting something to look like it was flying.
