MARRAZ(i)OAK IV ILLUSION ILLUSTRATING USING MATERIAL FROM BEFORE THE APPEARANCE OF FILMS

Parte-hartzaileak Elena Odriozola, Gustavo Puerta

Encounters with illustrators at ARTELEKU: Illustration using optical objects from before the appearance of films

WHEN AND WHERE: From 26 to 30 November, Arteleku
Arteleku
Kristobaldegi 14
20014 Donostia


WHAT:
Before the appearance of films, the idea was to use a number of optical objects to capture the sensation of movement, insinuating change or suggesting three-dimensionality to astonish spectators. At this workshop, we take another look at those lights and shadows, transparencies and overlays, tabs and spy holes that take us into the world of illusion.
Magic lanterns, diaphanoramas, dioramas, zoetropes, small paper theatres, panoramic depth viewers, etc. will be the starting points for a variety of exercises.

TEACHERS
Elena Odriozola
Gustavo Puerta

METHODOLOGY:
During the workshop, we will examine other ways of understanding and experiencing children's literature and its illustration.
CHARACTER BUILDING: We will deal with a problem we consider widespread: the proliferation of flat, rigid characters. To do so, we will develop gadgets such as rotating disks, removable images or notebooks with changeable strips to give characters independence and foster their autonomy. 
The action and construction of the narrative conflict: We will do exercises in which we can use the creation of diaphanoramas, zoetrope strips and magic lantern plates to explore the cores of our characters and how to express them.
Scenographic proposal: We will analyse spatial relations and the creation of atmospheres.
We want to use all this to offer illustrators the tools they need to deal with the creation of an album-book and, at the same time, we propose a number of artistic and ludic experiences.
We will visit the Zarautz Photomuseum.
