The first brief that we were given was to create our own interpretation of the characters Miss Havisham and either Estella or Pip from the Charles Dickens novel 'Great Expectations'.
I feel that this was quite a hard brief, this was because I didn't initially realise how difficult it was to recreate your work to the exact same standard and look that you had done on another occasion.
How did I overcome problems with the design and materials?
The problem that I had with the design was not making it look too complicated, for example in my initial face charts I wanted to include much more work on burns and wounds, however I thought this would make Miss Havisham and especially Estella look too over crowded and therefore I decided that less was more with these looks.
How did I develop my character research?
I developed my character research by watching two different versions of tv adaptions of this novel and by reading the book. I then went on to look at different pictures and analyse these versions of each characters.
How did I find it working to the brief?
I found working to the brief ok, however as I have previously stated I found it more difficult than I originally thought it would be to recreate work to the exact same look that I had previously done two weeks before that.
I feel that this breif was a good one and I liked the fact that it was challenging for me.
