dream project

for my dream project i'm thinking about taking photos of spiders moving and using it as a flip book. The idea of the spiders came from the nightmare i had with crocodiles, spiders and snakes.

Harry Potter

This reminds me of Harry Potter when Ron tries to turn his rat into a goblet but it backfires and becomes a furry goblet.

Rephaim

This reminds me of a book I read with a character called Rephaim; he's half man half bird.

DREAMS

Reminds me of....

This photo reminds me of a dream i had after i watched a movie about a serial murderer and rapist. He was mysterious and there was just a silhouette of a man and he would get closer and closer everytime dream-me would blink...

Fishing for love

I typed 'dreams photography' into Google and this popped up on my screen. I like what this stands for because some people dream of finding love randomly (like in movies). And fishing is compeltely random. Either you catch a fish, or not.

Harry Potter and Spy Kids style

This reminds me of the Harry Potter movie, when the chess ornaments come to life. Also the background is strange and unreal, creating a feeling of being in the Spy Kids movie when they are in the green screen room.

Floating italian city

This reminds me of a Italian city I went to, however I cannot rememeber the name. I like how it's being blown away by the wind, as though the wind has already blown away the hill/foundation the city relied on. It's very dream-like aswell because there's never a floating city. 

Surrealism Elephant and Dear

I like how the Tuba represents the elephants' trunk. and how the dear's horns are joined with strings... like a mini harp.

Venezian Surrealism

i took this photo in Venice last week.. McDonald is supposed to be Madusa. This is a good Surrealism photo

DREAMS AND SURREALISM 4

I HONESTLY DON'T KNOW WHY I LIKE THIS ONE.... BUT I DO.

DREAMS AND SURREALISM 3

THIS REMINDS ME OF 'THUMBELINA' BECAUSE AT THE BEGINNING SHE'S READING A BOOK AND THEN WHEN SHE'S MARRIED SHE HAS WINGS AND SHE'S LIVING THE TALE IN THE BOOK.

DREAMS AND SURREALISM 2

THESE REMINDS OF THE FILM 'ANASTASIA' WHEN THE CASTLE IS DISERTED AND EVERYTHING COMES ALIVE.

DREAMS AND SURREALISM

                     two: Composition (the structure)
                     three: Colour (???)
                     four: Influences on me

ManRay is someone I may like to look at for influences

Storyboard from the words

1. Choose seven words to work
2. Decide what story you can make out of it. I picked; duck, glitter, elephant, sandwich, darkness, pens and buttons
3. My story/dream was; a duck walked into the darkness with a cheese sandwich, he bumped into is elephant friend who was wearing a glitter outfit. All of a sudden it started raining pens and buttons

Pictures for spider,snake and crocodile dream

I HATE these things!!!! ughh

photo for surrealism

I like this photo because of how restricted it is, the sea seems real however the sky looks placed there instead of it being natural. It reminds me of a ship in a bottle because of how the boat is restricted into a small area and the water is smashing against the side of the box. However the clock is a bit strange as though whatever this photo is about, it's running out of time. Maybe the water level is going to drop or the boat is going to sink.

the sky looks like it goes on forever, it never ends and that what's make me think that's it's a dream because nothing really lasts forever.

 

photo for dreams

the light hits the main focus perfectly and the movement was captured perfectly by the photographer. Also because it's black and white the lighting really creates a dramatic effect.

 

another old dream

i would start walking up my stairs and then feel something on my foot, i'd look down and see a snake crawl across my foot. i'd look up and see snakes EVERYWHERE hanging from the banisters and ceilings. I'd carefully dodge all the snakes whilst walking up the stairs. I walked into my bedroom (which was massive) and the snakes where there aswell... I tried to walk up the stairs on my old bunk bed and all the snakes started swarming me.... then this jaw shot towards me and then it went completely black. Afterwards it would start again.

old dream

pictures of spiders, crocodiles and snakes flickered in and out of view and then it would go quicker and quicker around in cirlces until I woke up. I had this dream when I was little over and over again.

Surrealism

This is my favourite Surrealism photo

an google image of a girl's dream

I googled 'Dreams' and this photo came up. I like the different harmonies of colours and the mixture of the dreams.

First post

My name is Siobhan. I've never done a blog before and originally I was going to document everything in a book. I'm getting the hang of everything and i love that you can change your background to anything you like. This seems easier to use than a book because you can post videos on here but with books you'll have to put a CD in the book.
