You are very skilled yourself! Your cuts are clean and perfect!<br/>Generally, my process is to draw on the back of the paper and I design as I go, but here are some things I learned from experience.</p> <p>1. Doing a rough sketch helps you visualise your idea better. </p> <p>2. The paper density is important, too thin and you risk damaging it, too thick and your hands will be sore from having applying too much pressure when cutting.</p> <p>3. When planning a design, try and make sure that composition-wise, parts are connected so that it won’t be too flimsy. A way to do that would be to have a ‘frame’.</p> <p>4. If you are working with type/words, make sure it is mirrored (as I draw on the back of the paper)</p> <p>5. Be flexible. If you make a small mistake, embrace it and find ways to work with/around it like tweaking the design just a little bit. </p> <p>6. Rest occasionally. I would sometimes be caught working on a paper cut for hours without stopping and the result would be a hurt wrist (actually the pain spread to the shoulder) for months. This happened a few times until I realised I wasn’t superhuman and was over-working myself.</p> <p>7. Experiment. Artists like <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvU55CUw5Ck" target="_blank">Lotte Reiniger</a>, <a href="http://www.misterrob.co.uk/?page_id=39" target="_blank">Rob Ryan</a> and <a href="http://www.petercallesen.com/" target="_blank">Peter Callesen</a> are some to look at. They have brought paper cuts to a whole other level.</p> <p>It always comes down to personal preference but I hope this helped! Will keep an eye on ya! :D</p>http://designiswhatido.tumblr.com/post/26135734510http://designiswhatido.tumblr.com/post/26135734510Fri, 29 Jun 2012 12:09:28 +0100<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6byo0PUjg1qzj947o1_400.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6byo0PUjg1qzj947o2_400.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6byo0PUjg1qzj947o3_400.gif"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6byo0PUjg1qzj947o4_500.gif"/><br/> <br/><p>Monster Animations<br/>Project Dreamcatcher with Shawn Beck & Sam Goh<br/><br/>Gotta love me some gifs! </p>http://designiswhatido.tumblr.com/post/26069823341http://designiswhatido.tumblr.com/post/26069823341Thu, 28 Jun 2012 14:55:00 +0100Illustrationmy animation is a bit rustythey are all weird characters my mind spewed outi love gifs!!!!
