Picnic Sting from PICNIC* on Vimeo.
After deciding to do three 10 second stings rather than one 30 second sting (because I'm still figuring out what my final prints will be and my stings should be organically related to them, and I don't think 30 seconds would be suitable for the direction my designs are going in) , I've started to have a look at shorter stings and adverts, as I'll have to compress my ideas into a smaller time frame.
The use of sound in this sting really makes the hand done illustrations pop and be memorable. I don't think I'll be using a soundtrack to my stings, as that sort of sound doesn't really fit with the motifs I'm illustrating in relation to Shakespeare plays. I'm going to use recorded effects and atmospheric sounds to establish a narrative in my stings, much like this sting from Picnic does. The sound is varied but constant, blended together smoothly, which makes for an engaging few seconds. I find it really interesting how such a short clip can have so much work put into it and be so rewarding for the few seconds it exists in.
