As I mentioned earlier, I've been thinking about a comic for my FMP for a while now. Just because it makes sense for me, this whole year has been based around exploring colour palettes and character design and creating a narrative for my work and creating a comic would really sum that up for the whole year.
I've talked about it briefly on my PPP about my plans for the future, but I really would like to have a career in character design or/and editorial. Creating stories is something i've always done and if the FMP goes into the final end of year show which I'm hoping it will, then it will represent what I've learnt through this year on the course. I've really lacked confidence this year but talking to creatives like Krystena Baczynski and Mike Mignola has taught me that it's okay to keep to yourself as long as you keep creating work that you love and through that will make you want to share your work. In her talk, Krystena spoke about how she likes to make comics for herself and I feel similar. I really want to create something that I would want to read. When I spoke to Mike Mignola after his talk, he really encouraged getting into a routine with drawing, planning power hours to work through and planning breaks. Taking both of these creative's advice is going to be crucial to this project, as soon as PPP is out of the way I can start creating more and more work. Everything up until now has been research really and I need to get moving with a plotline (I started storyboarding after Patrick told me to hop too it last month, I just came to a standstill).
