According to the brief I supposed to create a response to the Classical music by Gustav Holst(1874-19340).He composed The Planets,a seven-piece orchestral suite.I did a research on artist Jasmine Franko(she does Subconscious Drawing by pencil) and some other artists. Also, I had a correspondence with them to ask some questions (see the post “Correspondence with artists”).Some images of artists who reflected Mood and Memory in different styles are represented below:

In accordance to the information collected from my research I decided to approach the idea of representing Mood and Memory from the Subconscious state of my mind.I have completed a series of subconscious drawings by graphite, referring my memory to the past.The pictures are different and not always clear looking.As I do draw automatically ,I do not pay attention to what is on the picture while drawing .After completing the series of drawings I try to create a connection between some of them.I really enjoy giving freedom to my brain ;and by switching off consciousness I can produce far more pictures in a short time, as subconscious mind works much quicker when it is not controlled by cortex that provides consciousness.Also subconscious mind is in charge of everything that we had experienced including emotions.All drawings are completed by continuous line.
Some scanned pictures are represented below:
I also completed two animated films in Movie Maker computer program.It is a development work without sound:
Some other developed images were controlled by conscious mind and used for the second version of the film.Some pictures are represented below:
I applied to the film the music composed by Gustav Holst.Much better with the music:
I managed to complete the same film in After Effect computer program.I have to gain a lot more in terms of using After Effect.See After Effect interpretation below:
The film represented below reflects my mood and memory about the past:
Outcomes for the project Mood and Memory:
Some ideas for A3 format illustration for Mood and Memory project:
More versions of the film completed in Movie Maker (development work) include a few more sequential frames.Next stage is to do it in After Effect program.
