Idea?

 I'm thinking about maybe creating a GIF. Maybe something that has to do with all of the fires going on right now. I am thinking about a silhouette of a person going and building a town. Eventually the town grows to cover the page(?) and becomes widely popular (like L.A.). and then a large fire comes in and wipes it out which could end up making the perfect loop with the silhouette coming over to restart the process. Maybe this could be done with figures cut out with paper and then the fire effect was added in later with editing or something?

    That would be so cool! Probably will take a lot of work but I love the idea. You could even go a video route and set up a series of paper figures and take a video of the last set going up in flames or something.

    I was also thinking about actually burning paper, and you could utilize photoshop to create the city. Which then you could work in the burnt paper as well.

    Your gif idea seems more reasonable because you could use the photoshop timeline feature to create motion, and if you made a video, I wouldn't be so sure photoshop could fit within that direction.

    I think this is a really cool idea. I like Yesenia's comment about burning paper and using photoshop to make it into a gif that is kind of stop-motion-esque. That way, you can still incorporate the photoshop aspect as well as the idea of actual fire. I think this is a really good concept. I am excited to see where you go with this project.

    I think this is an awesome idea! You could even do Australia, if you wanted to not have to draw a whole city. You could do trees and animals and then that gets burned away, I saw a picture of the animals coming back and greenery growing again in Australia, but that’s just an idea. You could also use pictures like collages that looked like magazine clippings to create the same effects without having to draw everything.

Mess or Everyday

Image
  My concept in one word is "Mess". I wish I could've been working on things more but it feels like everything is falling apart in my personal life and every time I try to work on this I can't really get anywhere. The thing on the top is a washing machine with my car's gear shift in it. It broke down this weekend in Asheville so I had to get towed from there and then my partner's parents had to come get us. I put the road because we can never get away from it and every time we drive it's a cycle of going somewhere and coming back. It's a similar thing with the gear shift and washing machine, we always come back (and they have their own cycles). I added my hamster because when I come home I see him. I am realizing that another concept could be "everyday". Sorry if I shared too much. Please let me know some more ideas if you have some. I'm feeling stuck.

Trying Some Things

 I've been playing in Photoshop and I really like where this is heading! I have been having trouble thinking of other things to do with the photo of Mr. John. If you have any ideas or think that I am doing something well let me know! I need all the help I can get. I don't know what it is but it's been harder for me to think of ideas.
