My favourite design was....

Dancing Frog by Spellstone


By clicking on the link you can view my favourite design for the Frog contest. I loved this one because it's so refined and has a screen printed feel to it. It is also so playful!

Outcome of Frog contest

I was very pleased to have received two votes and a lovely comment from one of the other designers. There was so many lovely fabrics! It is very useful for me to participate in this competitions: it gives me the opportunity to learn new ways of designing and it helps improve the quality of what I do.

Camera Angles

 
The Animation has two camera angles. I marked the position of the tripod legs on the floor with some masking tape. The yellow circles reppresent the frontal position and the red circles are for the side shoots.By marking the floor I am able to switch from one position to an other without altering significantly the image, and therefore maintain continuity within the sequence.
