Work Experience Takeover ⭐️🪴

Hello, I’m Vas and I’m doing my work experience week at Clay Studio!

🌤️🌿🫧

I would like to work in animation and creative media in the future, so I have created a stop motion for the studio’s marketing person: Laura.

The narrative follows two pairs of friends becoming one group, and overcoming their uncertainty of the novel.

This was a very fun project to work on, I’m looking forward to the rest of the week!

Lovely things from the kiln 🔥

Our weekly classes have been experimenting with a new decorative technique, where coloured clay is rolled in to balls and applied in feather like patterns across the surface of the pot.

We’ve searched far and wide (on the internet) and this technique doesn’t seem to have a name.. would love to know if anyone has heard of one.
