I have visited the Natural History Museum and looking into ideas on the theme of sea monsters and decided that my costume is definitely going to be a squid idea. It was interesting to gain primary research from here as I spent alot of time observing the different types of squids and generated some drawings. These have helped me in the design process and collaging the drawings onto the human figure... I have had some other ideas and inspiration for the design such as the 'Oods' from doctor who and Pirates of the Caribbean cracken. I think by looking into ideas such as these when there are so many boys in the class will benefit me in the fact that they will hopefully be more interested and excited about the project if they look through my sketchbook etc. I want to let the children play around with different ideas of how to create these tentacles around the nose so they have a form of creative freedom as well.
We have a presentation soon to present to the steering group to show our initial ideas, this will be really useful to get their opinions and constructive criticism on my ideas so far as they are the ones who curate the Moving Tides procession so their thoughts are really important....
The powerpoint I have created is simple and basic and will hopefully give them a visual idea of my thoughts so far...
