Stop & Stare - Art Direction & Stop Frame Animation Project

In this project we had to create a one minute animation using photography (720 photographs = 1 min). We had to work in certain themes. My theme was around the stereotype of how Muslims are perceived as stupid. I've also worked with the issue of how Muslim women are always perceived as oppressed and forced to wear hijab (head scarf) and that it's stopping them from building a future etc.

Song: Sami Yusuf - Free

Hope you enjoy the animation :)

10% Miniland Project

This is our community project of the year, where the whole college gives back to the community. The Miniland 10% project was aimed to help revamp the SANTARAMA Miniland. We were the biggest group and so we were seperated into different groups. One group was working on buliding a new building which was soccer city. 5 groups were working on revamping and rebulding existing models. 2 groups were for graphics and information.

I was in the graphics group and I had to create a new map for the miniland

This is what it looked like before
And here's my final map
our aim was to make it more eye-catching and child friendly
