Overview of Final

Final Product #3 Result

For the last product, the theme is about letting go. When I was thinking about this concept, I thought of balloons floating in the air. So, I decided to make a person let go of the balloons. To start, I made the base and kept on adding slabs on the sides and on the top. Next, I made a pair of clothes, but the the whole upper body is gone because the main character had lost her identity for a bit. Then, I added a balloon on the side because I couldn't put it up in the air. To finish up, I painted using variety of colors and I made the product to look a little messy.

Next, I made symbols or representations for the story because these are vital to know. First, I created a music sign because the character loves to play the piano and is very talented at it. But, the character stopped playing as a kid when their father left their house. The next object is the turtle because this is what made the main character to fall in love. Lastly, the other symbol is a photo of the family because this is important in the story. After all of this, I painted everywhere and made it look appealing. Here are some pictures:

For my second final product, I made the same vessel as before and pushed in the sides. Next, I rolled up the clay to make a handle in a coil method. I used score and slip to stick the handle to the basket.

To finish things up, I decided to paint the product because the colors would be bright. I made the human figure to be broken a little because it is supposed to show that this character is hurt inside and is lonely. I made the grass because the setting in the movie is at the beach. The beach also connects to the female character because they are both quiet and peaceful. I thought this was a good match. Pictures are posted below. 





Final Product Intro #1

In making this first product of my final, I started off by making the base. Then, I worked my way up by adding slabs to make a vessel. The next thing was to make a human figure, but it didn't work because the clay kept falling down. So, I took a piece of wire and shaped it as a human figure. It helped a lot by being able to have a good balance in the vessel. After that, I put clay over the wire. I also added long and thin pieces to the vessel because it is supposed to be grass. Here are some pictures:
