So the first song was this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qY--Yu4kzz0&ob=av2e
Again with this one I found myself messing up a lot..there are a lot of dramatic camera angles at times too so it made it a little hard to draw...which is why the drawing on the bottom's head isn't really complete...
The second song is this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiH4BFTELMENow I wasn't entirely sure if the song was a different genre than the first or not but I thought it'd be nice since it has a different approach. It was another kinda fast song though so I messed up a little bit but not as much as the first.
And then the last song was this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9__6TAVTwtk&feature=related
I honestly have no idea what the guy on the bottom is doing but I have a lot of respect for him leaning over like that, I think, the entire time. I think he is "drumming" on the box or block that he is sitting on...hm...
Jessica,
ReplyDeleteA couple things:
The top two pages are the better of the 3. Your drawings look more thorough and fleshed out. The instruments read well with the players.
However, I'd work on drawing the violin a bit more from the side - it looks a little flat.
The instrument in the Norah Jones performance is a cajon (cahone) - it's a Latin percussion instrument.
What I'm noticing about your work is there is little variation in the size of your gestures. You should try to mix up the sizes of these - but not only size - location to the viewer, as well.
Also, your style of placing child-like features and child-proportioned heads on all your subjects is something you need to break.
Adult heads can be drawn in a basic style and still read as an adult (see Disney, Ghibli, etc.)
An oversized head with simple features reads as a child's - there is no getting around that.
I like the loose line and the poses - please keep that up.
