2D Design: Silhouette

This assignment is kind of special as we have to watch movie to observe what is silhouette and get some inspiration from the movie. The movie i have chose to watch is James Bond 007: Skyfall.

Some of the scenes of silhouette from this movie.

All pictures are from Google.
It is a really nice movie to watch and it has lots of silhouettes. It really attracts my vision and it is a spark as well throughout the movie. 

So What's Silhouette in simplified version? Black & White Pictures
In a deeper version is: 
When we turn our subjects into silhouettes, we are abstracting them – often showing less and saying more in the process. We can use those silhouettes to create symbols and metaphors that provoke the imagination and thoughts of our viewers, creating meaning and telling stories.

Here are some other examples of silhouette:

Silhouette in Story. 

Silhouette in nature. 

Silhouette in Art Work

Now I understand that silhouette is an art without showing emotion. But through action you can see feel the emotion. 

And now this is my work.            

 

For those who don't understand I will explain in text. :) I have written a story of a girl. She woke up in the morning and walk from her house to city. She passed by many roads and look around. She used the same route everyday and bought a bouquet of flowers. When she passed by a couple sitting on the bench she started to think about his ex-boyfriend. She thinks of many happy memories while hanging out with him. She started to break down when she thinks of the day she went out with him to the ferris wheel. Finally she arrived to her destination which is the lovely meadows graveyard. She touches her boyfriend's grave and kneel and cried. the background of last scene is similar to the first scene. I have leave the death of her boyfriend as an mystery.. It's up to you to interpret! :)

BUT SADLY IT FAILED. (MY WORK) that was a great story. 

HAIH. SAD CASE

  In the end i have to redo because my last minute work sucks. :[  

AND again this is my SECOND PRODUCTION.

See it in U turn shape form

AND GUESS WHAT? 

PASS FOR SURE :) haha

MY Title for this work is : THIS IS LIFE

Why would i say this? 

If we see life in a fast forward way, the normal routine of a human's life is like this. 

From birth -> childhood -> teenage -> adulthood -> have a family -> old age -> sick -> death

It's a cycle of human life.

But i know Life is more than this! We can do more and make our life fill with more colors. To live a life with no regrets. :) 

This piece of work is inspired from the main essence of silhouette, which is simplified but with emotions inside! 

That's about it and see you again :D
