Thought I would illustrate this with a still from the film. Isabella Rossellini! What a talent.

Book report on "BFI modern classics: Blue Velvet" by Michael Atkinson

Book report on "BFI modern classics: Blue Velvet" by Michael Atkinson

# data[].attributes.body
I took this book out of the library because I find attempts to analyse or talk about David Lynch kind of fascinating. His work is so ambiguous (and yet in some ways so obvious) that critique can be polarised.

This slim book functions as a slightly more longform essay on Lynch's 1986 film Blue Velvet, as well as its context and importance. I particularly found myself agreeing with the author's psychoanalytical reading of the film with regards to Jeffrey's Oedipus complex and the portrayal of sexuality in general as something very base and primal.

One thing I personally disagreed with was Atkinson's assertion that Lynch is a conservative filmmaker. Personal politics aside (I don't know what Lynch's personal ideology is and we can only guess), I don't think it can be said that he's a great champion of traditional American life and values. I think that he is highly suspicious of 'Americana' and its associated doctrine. Through his work, he seems interested in the ways American life and nostalgia for a bygone era (the 1950s, in the case of Blue Velvet) are used as smoke screens for a dark undercurrent.

We worked as a class to create a short film over a few days. This was the outcome!

On reflection, we didn't put much consideration into sound on-set, so there are problems with the sound of the wind. We could have also put more effort into costume and effects, but the final film was still quite funny because of its lower quality.

ATOM 1: Digital illustration project: zine contribution

Duration: approx. 10 hours

I was asked to contribute some art to a collaborative zine on the subject of 'big feelings'. My piece combined creative writing and illustration and was about how I often feel my emotions very strongly.

The creation process was a learning experience, as I used the opportunity to experiment with composition, layout and image manipulation. I also challenged myself to use a limited colour palette. I felt the combination of different elements was effective and everything tied in well together, although I thought that layout wasn't as coherent and readable as I had intended it to be.
