Life isn't perfect!

Life isn't perfect, even for Disney characters. We were going to make a short movie, photo or a cartoon that contained a scene from the life of a Disney character, or any character that we knew when we were children. The scene could be when the character was grown up or a teenager and so on. The characters were tiny and innocent, but we should tell the rest of the story and choose if it was still as perfect as before, or not. Me and my group chose to make a movie about Teletubbies. As you may know, they are sweet and cute, and they wouldn't even hurt a fly. But, in our movie... they've chosen the DARK side! Hehe. They have become criminals and they are sought by the police. This task was also a way to try out different genres in movies. We got the genre Slasher, which is a scary movie like Scream, Halloween, etc.
In a Slasher movie there is certain rules:
The killer is the point of view or if you see him he usually wears a mask.
If you say be right back you wont be back.
If you open a door to a closet and theres no music, the killer is behind you.
The plot usually takes place at night, or where there's dark, except in our movie :P
There is more rules, but if you have an Internet connection you will be able to Google these rules on your own... :P

There were five groups that together made five movies that can work as a movie on their own, and together with the other movies. Every movie had different genres and completely different stories. One of the movies connected the rest and was the "frame story" of the movie. There is some objects or characters you will see in more than one of the movies, and that is how we connect them.

Have a nice day!

Do you like sardines?

Howdy! Our pro class got invited by MUST (Museum Stavanger) to a guided tour and a sardine label contest! All vg1 MK students in Rogaland were invited. We were going to make a design based on the task; Make adolescence eat more sardines. We could only use Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator for this task. Well, here is the design that I made:

















I only used Adobe Illustrator CS5 to make this design. I've used Pen tool, graphic styles, fonts, brushes and symbols to make this design more Western like. The Factory name is "Sheriffen"(the sheriff). Sheriffen has "produced" a new sardine type: Sandines, sardines for tough people! The secret ingredient is a taste of gunpowder smoke that helps you forget the old and regular sardine taste. To the right, you can see an unusual, weird looking, kind of fishy-like sardine with green skin. He is one of the sheriff sardines inside this sardine-can and he's skin color is the same as a cactus. Be careful, this Sheriff-cactus-sardine has a gun! To prevent this sardine from escaping his can, I've set some barbed wires around it so you can be safe. Well, that's pretty much it, I'll consider whether I'll make a tutorial on this or not until then;
Have a nice day!
OH! I almost forgot an important part of the contest: The award :D From the schools that where invited, about 4 or more schools, 10 of the best designs could win nice prizes, whatever nice prizes was supposed to be. On top of this supplication I mentioned our "pro class", and since "pro" means to get payed by doing something you like to do, our class could be named that from now on because 7 out of top 10 designs came from our class, and we won T-shirts that is worth money so we kind of got payed for our work! My design made it to the top 10, yay me! Sorry for bragging, but it was very awesome indeed. Have a nice day, and look forward to the approaching Easter vacation :D
