Jeannette's Illustration Sketchblog: So Art School

11 February 2007

So Art School

That piece is entitled "Scratch." I like to show it to people that I'm meeting for the first time because I feel it says so much about who I am and what it feels like to inhabit my specific skin.

Ho ho ho Ghost World reference for the 99% of you who won't get that. Anyway, this is a bizarre video I did in college, when I was 19. It was for a final project in my electronic imaging class. I find it kind of hilarious. I always have. You can't read the text because the original video is like 502MB and no server will let me upload that much. The video is about my habit of scratching the top of my head. The song is some Tori Amos remix. My first and last fling with iMovie. I'm more of a pencil pusher, I think.

Frederik Jurk said...: It really is pretty funny, which, even though it IS typical artschool material, gives it a nice touch. Tori Amos is good. Reminds me of Kate Bush in some ways.

I wish I had the fragments of my animation class at hand. Would be good for a laugh, if nothing else ;); 6:01 AM

On a slightly different topic. I just saw Life Aquatic and Bill Murray is climbing my charts too.; 10:40 PM
