This was originally intended as blog designed so that Andy Norton, a postgraduate in Creative Digital Media, could discuss his influences whilst working on a comic for his Creative Portfolio Development module on that master’s degree. Now, the blog is intended to share articles relevant to his interests, as well as his artwork (past and present), as an experience graphic designer, with a background in illustration and animation.

The Prodigy - The Day Is My Enemy (Official Audio)
We may have not finished the first month of 2015, but
hearing this has already made me, a lifelong fan of The Prodigy, look forward
to an album from one of Britain's best dance-rock acts.
The catchy riff, and the fantastic build up too, just make this make this track sound like a classic in their already-impressive canon of work from their entire career.
If you have loved any of The Prodigy's previous works, you will need to do yourself a favour and check out their latest offering for their upcoming album.

Royal Blood - Figure It Out [Official Video]
Whilst the video to this instant classic from Royal Blood is fun, but something that is going to be easily parodied down the line, the song has a riff that just doesn't leave you. The song is destined to become a milestone in rock music with great justification in doing so.

Trigger Word- After- 31st August 2014
It has been nearly one and half years since I last found some time to do a trigger word; although I had this on fruition for a few months, but never had the time to become orientated from it until now.
So this models the preposition 'after', meaning later than. So the example I used was I watched the news on TV after I put the rubbish out. I'm pleased that I was able to depict the newsreaders of my local news presenters- British local news fans may want a guess at my region and those personalities. I was also able to depict our food waste bin, and trying to get the hand gestures right of what my hand is doing when placing the food waste into that bin.
I had problems trying to take shots of the of the figures, but I'm pleased with my third attempt of my figure watching TV, my first attempt at the figure putting rubbish into a bin with his face in shot, and my last attempt at depicting the entire situation with my figure putting waste into the bin.
I'm quite pleased with the setup, although I may want to lower my base down to avoid those corners sticking out of my fabric layer like that. I'm glad I found time to do this, and I want to find time again to do another one, but my schedule is a bit thrown off with potential work commitments at the moment; so I can't gurantee new trigger word models anytime soon.
