Feedback sheets
Slytanic as a zine was said by my peers to be too good to just be in a zine, and that zines are throwaway. Slytanic should be a hardback bound book and then I could invest more time into the illustrations
However, after further discussion we questioned the audience of the book - where would it be sold? Who would buy it? We figured the audience wouldn't be as big for a book like that compared to something that was online. It was named internet humour, and should remain on the net as part of a blog or an online shop of products.
From this I have decided to combine my dicapricards in with this idea of an online store that sells products Leo-related. This would be the card range alongside zines that put a twist on leonardo films (as the titanic would) but instead picks out key scenes to mock.
Where I've gone from there:
I decided I need to watch ALL of his films
Films Ive seen :
- the titanic
- wolf of wall street
- romeo and juliet
- django unchained
- inception
- what's eating gilbert grape
- blood diamond
- shutter island
- the great gatsby
Films I HAVENT seen:
- the revenant
- the departed
- the aviator
- catch me if you can
- gangs of new york
- the beach - whaaaat
- revolutionary road
- j.edgar
- the basketball diaries
- the man in the iron mask
- body of lies
- this boys life
- the quick and the dead
- total eclipse
I started with the revenant. Watched it over the weekend and its very lengthy I had to split it over two days.
I started looking into leo merchandise and how playful I could be. There seems to be a lot of this out there, but not illustrated. That's what will give it the edge.
Ideas blasting out my head :
- notebook or sketchbook - DRAW ME LIKE ONE OF YOUR FRENCH GIRLS
- pencil cases - sell me this pen
- prints
- badges
- mugs
- i party with gatsby - on a wine glass or tshirt
- leo sat on his phone at oscars - on the back of a phone case
- inception ideas about dreaming - on a pillow case/cushion case
- valentines : ill go down on you like the titanic, i wanna hit that like an iceberg, he looked at her the way every woman wants to be looked at by a man, is your name oscar cause i want you so bad, see you in your dreams, under loves heavy burden do i sink, oh my god (bites fist)
- Gilbert grape party invites :
Sympathy, thinking of you, get well soon or sorry your leaving cards :
Car air freshener
Film quotes on a mug of the levels of when your tea runs out
I would also like to experiment with wrapping paper as I have done previously for collectives as I think this would sell really well.
