all credit will go to this app for when making my own music and beats to use for this project as it owns the sounds. I will make sure that the final piece will not make money and if any problems come up I will mute or not use the music.

# data[].attributes.body
I have developed my final piece to the point where i want it to show rather than tell. I have done a lot of work on street art and globalisation with the process of including Japanese words for the billboards on the final piece but I have changed my mind.

i believe this is for the best and will continue.

# data[].attributes.body
i have made a start on my boards and still have such a long way to go but because i have to get my spray painting done outside, it has started raining and is expected to for a while so i cannot do anything until the weather is better or i find another alternative.

Update: There is a space at the back of the 3D room where these shutters can be opened and closed so my boards have been placed there and I can resume my work.

# data[].attributes.body
Here I present the large scale final piece. this piece is a representation and abstract look at a dystopian city obsessed with technology to where it is commercialised all over. the city is beyond bright with neon lights from windows, signs, posters, holograms and billboards wherever you look. This city is dense and heavily populated and is a glorified look into the cyberpunk future.

the three stencil adverts are to show the body modifications that are happening and changing everyone even if it is positive or negative. two of them are showing the virtual headsets to replace your eyes and one displaying a women with cyber-ware on her face that is supposed to encourage consumers to get what she has.

The city sky being yellow to show the change from what we see now, the sky could be like that from the heavy light pollution seen in the city.

Finally the large stencil is to show a man who is a part of this world, city and society and has been influenced by what is around him and can see the world only through the eyes of technology. He could be excepting that fact or may want to change and escape the colourful dystopia.

i made this man the focus on this final piece, he almost towers over the city around him and could be the representation for living in the dystopia or change.

# data[].attributes.body
this is the space I had to work with and this is where i kept all the stencils and spray paint.

# data[].attributes.body
the second layer has been completed and the stencil overall has been done. I have never done such a large stencil with no practice and the facet it has gone this well is amazing. there is some rough parts and small mistakes with the lining up of the stencil but I can barely notice it and i am just happy with how it turned out anyway.

The whole piece is near enough finished and anything else i do to the board will be finishing touches with some more lights ans shapes to fill in some of the empty spaces.

# data[].attributes.body
the last layer has been spray painted and i have to wait for it to dry.

# data[].attributes.body
here is me beginning the second layer which is grey to go over the black. I am also showing how the stencil gets done on the board and how I have to stick it all down and add sheets of paper to go over so i don't get spray paint everywhere and make my stencil look very messy.

# data[].attributes.body
Now the first layer of the stencil has been made and I am so happy with the result, most of it lines up perfectly and i spray painted the bottom since the stencil did not include feet.

I can now begin the next layer of the stencil which has a lot more detail and is expected to be difficult.

# data[].attributes.body
3 out of the 4 part first layer stencil has been done and I had to be very careful and made sure to line it all up together because it is too late to make any mistakes as that would cost me too much time and materials.

i did make sure this stencil is in the middle as it is the main focus and centre piece for my final piece.

# data[].attributes.body
A quick loom at the potential scale of this stencil

# data[].attributes.body
To note that I have not done a stencil larger than A1 and to get this done on time, I skipped on making a test and instead planned it out and began getting all the stencil outlines together. I did consider the possibility of sticking all the pages together to get the large stencil but some parts would fall off and not look how I wanted it to be so instead I would go one at a time.

I got the boards clamped together and began the stencil which you can see here.

# data[].attributes.body
the city is nearly done. I have added so many building outlines and little or large lights and shapes to act as the signs, windows and billboards. the finishing touches will be applied once I finish the large stencil since that is a priority now.

# data[].attributes.body
With the digital piece I made from my classmate, I was planning to include that and be an advert for body implants that can be seen on here and have that be shown in the city. I did a quick tests before applying it to the board.

# data[].attributes.body
here is how the stencil for the shapes are done.

# data[].attributes.body
The vision I had is starting to come together with the city thanks to all the stencils blending in and becoming a very neon and bright. I want this to stand out and have added more shapes from stencils of mine and even more small shapes and windows/light have been applied.

# data[].attributes.body
Here it has been spray painted on the large squares and I used a silver spray paint which reflects the light off the stencil which shows off the chrome body.

Also for a small detail. I am having her face the direction of where my large stencil will go.

# data[].attributes.body
this stencil was from the photography in the Barbican centre that I thought could look good for the large neon adverts for the city and it was spray painted a bit rough but I am happy with what I got.

# data[].attributes.body
I felt confident enough to make a start on the visual billboards displaying technology on people and had a little stencil i made weeks ago to be a part of this and spray painted it onto the large square shape light.

You can also see the very small squares that are little windows and lights that I made because of Blade Runner, the city in the movie and the response I made.

# data[].attributes.body
I cut out some more stencils of the architecture and buildings that i took pictures of while in the Barbican centre and got them spray painted onto the boards to add different angles and shapes of city windows and lights.

# data[].attributes.body
I was able to get some more shapes on the other side and catch up with the first board since I want to have them both at the same point before I begin the large stencil.

# data[].attributes.body
I cut out some different shapes to change the lights around the city and have some that are not just squares. This is also a start on the other board.

# data[].attributes.body
After the first animation, i did get some music and songs together that either directly relate to dystopias or remind me of some of the music i heard from the movies and games I researched, played and watched. I could use this to make my own music to get past the copyright problems with using music that is not mine for the animations. also the playlist is available here: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLqViYwPkAqcC33Uq-bFZPR8SxSKhnTU3&si=BGNdVSNKet5Qg24i

# data[].attributes.body
As I am getting materials and stencils for the physical final piece am going to do, I did want to try and visualise some of the commercialised aspects of the neon lights, signs and adverts in the world I am going to illustrate and i had an idea. I made work on body implants and wanting to include that in my final work so i might try get a stencil of a woman inspired by the advert in Blade runner 2049 displaying the body modifications.

Clarifying final piece ideas and where the ideas came from

# data[].attributes.body
I am going to start 2 final pieces, 1 is digital and the other will be physical but what will they be and how will they relate to the theme, audience and specialist area.

Ill start with Final piece 1:

Final piece 1 is an animation that will display multiple ideas and messages. It is a video of a man wearing virtual a reality headset seeing through the eyes of the machine and observing the virtual world around him and spots the audience in the world world before putting the headset back on and walking away. This animation is supposed to be on a billboard in a city where my target audience spots it, observes and questions if the virtual man saw them or not.

It also shows the over-reliance on technology ad letting it be a part of us because of commercialising and technological changes and enhancements in society.

The world around him in the video will be yellow to match the colour scheme and represent what colour my world I have created is since the sky on my boards are yellow to show a different sky and almost full of dust and fog and to enhance that dystopian look.

this goes with my target audience because I am aiming to have this theoretical billboard on the street where those who are the targets of advertising being adults are shown but instead showing my messages and video instead.

With the video relating to my specialist area of illustration, I am presenting and showing a scene and story of a man exploring the digital world, discovering the real one and walking away for a reason i would rather leave up for interpretation

Final piece 2:

the plan here is to show on 2 boards to act as a wall as 1 together and is supposed to be out on the street for people to see. My idea here is to show an illustrate my world that i have imagined and started working on. the world is a dark depiction of the future in the cyberpunk genre with a towering city with many bright neon lights, advertising everywhere, foreign languages and more.

I want to show the same individual from the animation as a large stencil towering over the world around him while also being a art of it with his eyes being replaced by a virtual reality headset acting as eyes. i want to simply present this world and get people to discuss on the street why they are being shown it, is this the future? and much more. I like interpretation and leaving some things up to the audiences eyes and mind. however, at the end of this project i simply want this board to show my version of a dystopian world.

It all relates to my target audience because street art ad stencil work appeals to younger adults and my work will be out on the street on a wall for people to look at as they go past.

Finally with Illustration, this all comes together because i am illustrating my story here and my world and my version of what our future dystopia may look like.

# data[].attributes.body
From this point, I had Bella (my classmate) go through my work and evaluate the good and what can be improved on. She told me that my ideas were clear and the progress can be seen with good experimentation and a clear transition to technology and a more cyberpunk genre look for the project.

# data[].attributes.body
This is my final piece and is an animation displaying the Virtual reality headset and the virtual world which would be displayed on a billboard in a city and specifically my fictional city seen in Final piece 2.

The final piece shows and asks if the virtual world is real with the digital man approaching the audience and acknowledging them for a brief moment before putting the Virtual reality headset back on and walking off. This was intentional and I did make it so the video breaks the fourth wall.

The music is to immerse the audience into my cyberpunk world with a screen like this being displayed and normally playing this type of electric music with usually showing adverts, holograms and much more, but here instead of showing a man seeing through the eyes of a device and being over-reliant of technology in this world where cyber-ware and implants have been commercialised.

now the final piece here was going to be longer bit the size of the file was too large and I tried uploading it to youtube but the quality was very poor so when it comes to the exhibition, i'll send over the longer version which is just a loop with more of the music.

finally this piece will not be used to sell or make money from as the sounds are still owned and are simply repurposed by me to make a beat. All credit for that goes to Groovepad-music and beat maker on the playstore.

# data[].attributes.body
They all tell you something when you look at them much as the robot sat in the alleyway. It has clearly been abandoned and almost looks broken but people are walking past so it might be a harsh world to live in

# data[].attributes.body
I tried writing some words that relate to cyberpunk and translating them to japanese

# data[].attributes.body
I did participate in a workshop which is why this is here and thought it using one of my photographs could make a good outcome. I tried the print but did it incorrectly and had bubbled on my work but by no means did it look bad.

# data[].attributes.body
this is what was left from the screen-printing and I kept it just in case I needed to use it again.

Architecture and outcome idea: city skyline 

# data[].attributes.body
Cyberpunk cities can be hard to replicate and draw but I saw online outlines for cities and think that getting just an outline for a city can be a good look.

# data[].attributes.body
I went online and looked up the slang of cyberpunk 2077 see how different theoretical slang is in the future. I could use these for either graffiti or just for the future of the project if I have ideas of what to do with them.

# data[].attributes.body
I found some patterns of circuit boards and did some sketches as I thought this could look good on a body when it comes to research on cyberware.

# data[].attributes.body
Now i knew that the building stencils i was going to add would make the piece look more abstract but i was fine with that and used the previous cutout of a stencil building and i did like the look and thought it was effective and applied it with different colours around the board. It shows the city lights and reminds me of imagery from Akira and the city.

# data[].attributes.body
After some time, I got more shapes and colours onto the board and slowly it is fitting the plans I had made. Noe there is some marks and spray paint but maybe it can be the cloudy mist from the neon lights if i can't get rid of them.

# data[].attributes.body
these are some of the shape cutouts I was talking about and they were taped o he board to keep them as still as they could be giving the wind was strong.

# data[].attributes.body
I spent some time cutting out shapes small and large with large shapes being billboards i can even stencil later and smaller or thinner ones being just the lights of the city. I also have a large collection of spray paint and had many colours to chose from so i picked out many bright colours that would best reflect my cyberpunk city and got to work.

no there is a problem but one i just have to let happen and that is because all the spray painting has to be done outside, the wind can effect where the spray paint goes and have some spray paint and marks left but I plan on adding a lot more so it may look better, if not ill paint in black and fill in.

# data[].attributes.body
Now I have the third layer al done which took the least amount of time and still has a bit of yellow background left so i am happy with what is done.

With what is done, the plan next is to stat the process of adding shapes and colours to present the light of the neon city i am creating. once I am happy with that then next is adding the stencils.

# data[].attributes.body
now both sides are done and line up perfectly. the paint is a little rough with some gaps but plan on polishing and adding small touches at the end. I still know more can be added and want to know have a lighter grey and add a thew more buildings.

the plan now is that each layer getting lighter will have smaller and less strong neon colours as it will work better if the colours fade out.

# data[].attributes.body
I got one of the boards done with the grey buildings and it has filled in and hidden the tape still stuck on my board. i did not want to fill the space left and sill wanted my colour scheme and background to be there.

# data[].attributes.body
I now am applying the next layer of the city outline which is a dark grey and I am doing this behind the black layer because it will not look as visually impactful and strong especially once I start adding the neon colours later on.

I sure to use the right tape this time and have learnt my lesson. I also used a smaller brush and made nothing got on the yellow paint.

# data[].attributes.body
Here is a close up of the tape left and some of the marks as well.

# data[].attributes.attachment_caption

# data[].attributes.body
Now with the animations and videos I have made, they all so far use music that is not royalty-free or made by myself and wouldnt really count towards anything if I used them for my final pieces or final animation so I made sure to try and find a way.

I used an app called groovepad with preset music and being able to create your own beat. With this I found presets and music that related best to my theme and I found out with also linking the sounds that electronic music comes very close to the same sounds and feels to the music I have already used.

I tried making many outcomes to use for another animation and used my street art as the cover for all this music as if it is an album.

# data[].attributes.body
I finally removed the rest of the tape but still many of the bits of glue left and are very difficult to remove from the board and have tried using a cutting knife and white spirit but nothing is really working.

My solution after some time of thinking and a discussion with my teacher is t add another layer for the city background and have it slowly fade out or get brighter. I do want to instead hide all the marks and glue and will use a less strong tape next time.

# data[].attributes.body
A previous piece of work from the beginning of my production stage of the project had a filter that changed the colour every second or two and i applied it here and I like the outcome of this and think most of these effects apply themselves pretty well to my animation and help the look to make it all more digital.

# data[].attributes.body
there was an effect which made multiple versions of my animation all together with different colours. To me this looks like they are playing on multiple screens.

# data[].attributes.body
this is just another effect that puts a more neon outline around the character.

# data[].attributes.body
I did want to see if anything can be changed or added to my animation and thought of adding effects to the video to make it look more like it is coming from a screen and the digital world. I used that app Vaporgram again to test an add some filters to the video and this was the result.

It makes my animation and screen look more digital with the glitches making it seem like there is something wrong with the screen it is being shown on.

# data[].attributes.body
used yellow for the colour scheme.

# data[].attributes.body
I made the original image black and white to see what she could look like as a stencil if I used this image for that purpose.

# data[].attributes.body
this is technically a finished product of getting all the frames and editing them together and for the final product, getting this animation.

this really sows the 20 plus hours of work and dedication t get this done and I am so happy with what i have made. there was about 70 or 80 frames and even though it's short still only being roughly 10 seconds, the animation is smooth and very accurate to my movement.

Not every frame was perfect and i did make mistakes at time such as not filing in a gap or two but you can barely notice it in the video.

Now that the animation is done, is there anything else I can do to it? yes. I made music not to long ago to accompany the final animation and i plan on choosing one and making a loop video playing the music although it isn't mandatory but helps visualise and even hear the music of a dystopian world.

# data[].attributes.attachment_caption
primary image from my chromebook of my work

# data[].attributes.body
I am making much more progress with the frames and am about halfway there with roughly 30 to 40 frames to do.

# data[].attributes.body
there is now another issue when removing the other tape and that is the fact the black paint got through and has left many marks on the yellow sky so I might either have to repaint or extend the back buildings.

# data[].attributes.body
I have run into my first problem with this final piece which has to do with the tape I used. I accidentally chose very strong tape which has left the glue parts stuck onto the board and also have puled some of the paint off.

I have left some of the tape still on and want to wait until it is all completely dry and then try and find a way to get all of the tape off.

# data[].attributes.body
I have been able to paint both boards and fill in any gaps and now just have to wait until it is dry.

# data[].attributes.body
I had to sue more tape and put it on the yellow parts of the board i didn't want to get the black paint on and began filling in the shape for the city.

# data[].attributes.body
Now i have begun the next step for the final piece and a very important one at that. I got some tape and started making an outline for a city that i wanted and used some references from previous work and cyberpunk cities on pinterest and got this shape. Also because the boards are separate, I had to make sure the tape lined up.

The plan next is to paint with black.

# data[].attributes.body
Now I have started the 2nd final piece with the boards and before I even began, i had to got out and get paints for the boards. I went to B&Q in Stevenage to get a hold of white paint to coat over the boards and the yellow I got can be brighter.

also, the boards had holes in then so I had to buy this hole filler for wood and then sand it down once it was dry.

finally, I began painting the boards yellow as you can see fro this image and even bought my own roller to make the process quicker.

# data[].attributes.body
This is where i have stored the boards and will keep them there until i am ready with all the stencils to use and know exactly what to do.

# data[].attributes.body
i was able to get both boards panted which did take me a day or two and the yellow colour did become very bright but not as neon as a thought but I know that i could change it later or just deal with what i have been given.

# data[].attributes.body
This is what one of the boards looked like once it was done and did take a lot of time and effort to make sure it was coated over twice.

# data[].attributes.body
After the plan for what I want to do for my final piece or pieces, I was able to have my parents get me two large boards i wanted to use to go even larger scale from my previous final project last year and wanting to improve on that.

I did want to make as big of a final piece that I could and really push myself beyond my limits compared to last year to prove myself to well myself. I want to go out with a bang and try go all out with my work even if it isn't perfect.

Getting these boards was a pain to begin with but getting them to college also took a lot of effort but I managed and here they both are. I did not get an image of them from before so this is just before paint them which is later into the project so I am just leaving a note.

# data[].attributes.body
I had my stencils I wanted to use printed out in large scale and I stuck them on my board to get a look at to what my piece can look like.

# data[].attributes.attachment_caption
primary image of me working on premiere pro

# data[].attributes.body
since I do want to add music to my finished animation, I tried using a more professional tool to test that out and tried importing my already made music and although I got the hang of it, I faced trouble saving the file.

This was juts a quick test and I know easier ways of importing music and editing videos.

# data[].attributes.body
I have established that I want to have 2 final pieces, one being a digital animation or stencil and one to be a large scale board showing a dystopian city and ideas of mine I want to show so I have began the process of making my own city and what it can look like on a large board.

I took many references from pictures online and prior research of cyberpunk and futuristic cities and found that many of them were square shapes and used this as an outline for a city.

I started this digital process of the app sketchbook.

now that the city has been made, I knew that there had to be more added to give that look from many of the futuristic cities and that is the neon and bright look.

I tried the same process with making this city outline with using square shapes and it can be used for the city lights, signs an =d more to really build this vision of a lively city.

# data[].attributes.headline

# data[].attributes.body
I made some of these tests with just adding many square shapes over each other and filling in all the shapes gives this simple but effective view of a city and I kept in mind the shapes of all the cities I have seen and researched which includes shapes of brutalist architecture.

# data[].attributes.body
I finished that cutout of the brutalist building i took a picture of and spray painted it as a quick test to see how it might look and I think this will work if i spray down multiple times in bright colours to show the nightlife and bright neon lights.

# data[].attributes.body
there is a plan for the stencil i chose and that is to print it very large scale but i did want to practice with a similar stencil that is A1 to see how they look physically and on a board.

# data[].attributes.body
I took notes from the artist visit and in response am listening to the advice and making the building stencils to spray paint on later. I think with how I plan on making the outline of the city black, I should have the windows cut out and spray in bright colours to reflect to neon city look.

Artist visit and talk about final piece 

# data[].attributes.body
This man is @meanastreetart on instagram and an artist one of my tutors knows very well who came in to talk to me about my final piece and what I could do with it or add.

a reason he of all people talked to me about my work is the inclusion of stencil work in my project which is one of his specialisms as he does large scale stencil work for a living.

I showed him my ideas, theme and what I have currently been working on and my plan before I start my final piece so he could catch up to speed and tell me where to go from there. With my plans for the stencil work and getting them printed out, he showed me two other ways of getting large stencils done with one being the use of projectors on a surface and tracing from there or using a pouncing wheel which can be used for very large stencils and art to map out and dot all he lines and shapes.

I found that very helpful as it opens up the gates to more creative ways of getting my work done. I will consider the techniques he tought with me briefly but I might stick to staying safe a little bit with just how little time I have left with my project but for the future, this knowledge can help me a lot.

He also stated that with the city background idea that it should be stencil work fr that to get an accurate look for the city which I will keep note.

Overall, he actually showed me many techniques an ways of doing my work which i never knew or did not consider so he definitely helped me with the visit and made me feel much more confident with doing this large final piece.

# data[].attributes.attachment_caption
primary image of my work and plan for final piece before i start

# data[].attributes.body
this is the final plan before I begin my process for the final piece 2 which will be physical and on 2 large boards.

With work from before making digital outcomes for an outline of a city, I have a look roughly for how I want it to look on the board. i do not plan on printing out the city to cut out and I was instead thinking of using tape to outline the shapes on the board to paint or spray paint in.

the colour shapes are representing the neon lights from cyberpunk cities with lights, billboards or large posters on the side of buildings. I can use stencil cutouts of shapes to get an accurate shape I can even use again and again on the board.

Next, I want to put the large stencil of myself in the middle or to one side of the board to represent my character and a citizen of this dystopian city. I plan on making this stencil very large and the plan isn't to have the city or stencil to be an accurate scale and even have the piece feel a little bit abstract.

Wit the lady on the other side, I want to have her be a hologram or on one of the billboards in the city. I want her to represent he increased market and glorification of body modifications to humans and to advertise that.

Finally with the background, I might add clouds or show harsh weather to intensify the feeling of a dystopian city.

I did in fact use the idea from previous tests and outcomes of cybernetic body implants to link to my aesthetic and look of cyberpunk while making that discussion of the use of technology on the body and flesh.

Not only that, but having this on a poster in this city for my final piece can glorify the idea of technology on the body since it is advertised to everyone.

# data[].attributes.body
Not too long ago, I made some outlines for the city I could make for the boards and now I am adding to this plan and making it visual for what to do ans after making my main stencil, I do want to make it the subject and centre piece of the final outcome.

My only issue here is that the black blends into the background so I can consider using other colours for either the stencil or the city outline.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a better or more developed idea for what my board can look like with the city having lights and neon colours in the background this time.

# data[].attributes.body
Now I still plan on having that city outline but I really want to incorporate all the brutalist architecture I have looked at so I can maybe have them as stencils in my piece although it will look a bit more abstract which is not a problem.

I also used a unfinished stencil for this juts to get a rough idea and one of the previous stencils since I could use more than one stencil.

Here is a better look at what I mean when linking the Blade Runner girl to what I have made here and how this can work really well for my final piece but I know I can add more to it and might try to do something with body implants which has been a fairly large areas of research for my project.

I did see from a lot of pictures that I had saved of the cities and worlds that faces appear on the city posters and billboards with one in mind being the massive billboard in Blade runner of a ladies face on screen. I want to try add that and more little details to better illustrate and present the world around this stencil character I want to do.

I asked my classmate Bella to take a picture of the side profile of her face and use her as reference or directly use the picture to edit or create something similar to what I have looked at this project.

An example and screenshot showing just how each frame is me slightly moving to make the animation smoother.

# data[].attributes.body
Now with the background being yellow for the color scheme I have been doing some frames per day because of how long it takes to animate various frames with one being about 20 minutes.

I also chose to keep the stencils 1 layer instead of two just to keep to schedule and have this animation not take me many weeks to complete.

this is just a close up of one of about 20 frames.

Here is the top layer for the stencil and how it looks when it is by itself but gives me a good idea to print it off in real life with the bottom black layer and create a physical piece which is the plan forward.

This is the multi-layered stencil just as it is and can be printed physically since I saved both layers.

This time around after some digital editing and seeing what I could do with the original picture, I tried making it an actual digital stencil and I do think I will use this for a billboard or poster in the final piece.

Now I am choosing a image to use from all my photography to turn into a stencil and use for the final piece and now it is just finding some of interest to make into those stencils.

I did take some time to decide on what picture to use for my final piece as I did not want to keep creating more stencils just to decide but I am using this one because it is different to some previous work where I am facing away a bit and appear to be focused of something else.

I also juts think it is a good pose to choose from and I can still see myself wearing the VR headset and I am wearing the outfit inspired by the character from Akira.

Also I began the process of making a multi-layered stencil with this.
