Precision

There is an artistic precision to the way these guys are moving....very nice

Jookin

The way these guys move is insane. They look like puppets with invisible strings.

The Opening....just got that feeling.

This is how I want the opening environment to "feel". Mystical and feral in its nature. The place that these characters live is its own space within a space.....

Just because I like it...

And a lil of that....

Hieronymus Bosch

Throw in a lil of this

Awkward and Excellent

I like the "inside your mind" aspect of these images. Reminds me of something you might have seen in the movie "The Cell".

Gabriel Francisco

Taught me a lot. One of the most amazing dancers I have seen in person. Check it out. He would make a great Ringmaster.

Movement studies: Minions

Some of the minions will move like this....just crazy but skilled. Watch the intricacies of his movement.



Same thing here. Something very raw about this style that you cannot look away from. Hard to ignore....



This is Jay Chris and JBueno.....very creative and good movement for tall guys.

More environment reference

Just a few more images to wrap your head around.

"Sorrow is a fashion not because it is changeable but because fashion fashions, because what can be worn can be worn deeply."
{Ann Rosalind Jones and Peter Stallybrass}

Just got another idea thanks to Dodson. It will pertain to another level of the mythology/world. If you have questions, email me or call.......




Angela Talbot Sculptures. Beautiful work and great reference. The old woman need to look ancient.

A Question....

What does this statement mean to you?

HOW GREAT WOULD LIFE BE IF WE LIVED A LITTLE EVERYDAY.

Galen Hooks and Jillian

Still, all about movement and creativity. Inspiration through movement is a MUST!

Strait jacket Reference

Here is some reference for the strait jacket idea I have discussed with a few of you. Pay attention to the textures and the silhouettes.

P.





I like the texture of these old fencing garments.




I like the silhouette of the jacket on the guy. We can alter this to make the silhouette for the strait jacket.





With all of these images, I like the corset/sword holder he has on as well as the dis-figured arm and nails.

Ant Boogie and the Amount Boyz

Super Talented group of dancers.....nuff said.

Makeup

Hair Reference

Hey folks....Melissa has started to pull reference for Hair and makeup ideas. Remember, all of these images are supposed to spark inspiration. By no means do they have to be literal translations.

Sightless...

This is a great image.....could be interesting.
