An idea of play.

A jumping off idea of the combination of the self for my initial animation for this class would still be centered under the broad topic of imagination and how we utilize it as individuals to enhance our lives to some degree. This is usually called daydreaming to make it more specific and in essence from research daydreaming is the extension of ourselves and our deep inner emotions of our subconscious. It would be an all access look into a private world where we are striving so hard to push past the barrier of the dream state and reality. The work will stem from an understanding that a lot of people naturally just get burnt out with our daily lives because we give and give and give and contribute to a part that is stuck in a systematic loop. We really want to challenge ourselves and grasp the animal side which would be the daydream/subconscious and live within it. This piece isn't just about me or explaining some heart felt blah blah through a narrative it something above and below the surface that we all connect with. We fight with ideas that come from our inner being everyday and we fight to let them be heard so we make great big scenes and scores that live within our mind that are screaming outward to be released. This is what the piece will entail...a look into expressing the play that we want each and everyday and in the end being completely satisfy with knowing that we accomplished that. I can see this being done in a linear fashion morphing into a mere complex system that compliments the action before in each sequence. A really loving and gestural line that morphs into complex shapes of conveyed play. Doesn't matter what the medium as long as it has that essence of it could be done by anyone at any varying skill level.
