_ / My opinion about cc000 gfx compo
..............................
(C) Justinas / CTLia
The occasion of writing this article was published in the 13th
room Kr-News, which, let me remind you all, and
completely focused on Spectrum graphix scene. The main
Discussion loosened on the winners, ie Who and where should
be. Views, it was a lot different, it was interesting to read.
Thus, the works that claim to be the winner was just
4, a '-F1-' by ZSV ^ MIU ^ CTLia, 'Having Fun' by Paracels ^ PCB
'Two sights' by Pheel ^ ATS and the 'New skin' by Diver ^ 4D.
Go tell that about any "engineering works" I'm here to say I
will not, because I not an artist, and evaluate the work as a
simple spectator, who like beautiful, colorful, nice work.
To begin with, that cc000 - it's not virtual party, and
therefore, the same artists no technique for such a time
display and for such a distance from the projector could not
estimate. A Consequently, for such party to do such work,
which will be different idea, which would effectively
(Realno!) appear on the screen. So, let's manner and
look at these four works.
"New skin" from Diver'a, it seems, is not the best work
from him, as opposed to those works that I've ever seen.
Frankly, the party and I did not think that this work is
Diver'a. Well, looks like this screen is not impressive, painted
so-called "character" fails, the palette of colors, too
quite ill-sorted, from which it follows that the screen
does not create a special experience. Do not look.
"Two sights" by Pheel very strong work, the idea is excellent.
True, Pheel, apparently, loves girls with birds. ;) HE
previous screen to cc999 been with the same characters. But here
the problem is about the same as that of Diver'a: paint
selected is not quite successful, more precisely, with Pheel
too overdone ... By same color such as purple and blue on their
faces looks quite effectively. Picture certainly worthy of
prizes, but, unfortunately, is not the first.
"Having fun" by Paracels - This is where you can put ten
stars (with ten-point scale) for the color scheme
screen capable, ie, a palette of colors, which is not enough
work Diver'a and Pheel'a. Everything looks very cool: a person
looks actually, the background is also very nice - there is no
need to quibble. But the big problem is the idea of the image
is. Large regular face of the girl, the one that bites the leg,
looks great, but what side there next to ascribe the second
person? Done with view - the more people the better place? ;))
The size of this unfortunate face'a slightly smaller and not
absolutely clear, from there where it came from. This gives the
picture a huge minus. The idea failed, from which the screen
does not look spectacular.
'-F1-' by ZSV - that's the work that was done with
calculation on all the details, especially for real, not
virtual party. Firstly, a very original idea, very impressive
look at the screen, both of these objects. With a palette, too,
no problems, all color is in harmony with the objects. This
a picture is worth first place, and the fact that a large
detachment of ZSV other competitors - the 131 votes, proves it.
Survivor said it has won a prize to the village, yet no one
known ZSV ... And here's an example of what people in the
russian scene accustomed to the same winners and thinks that in
addition to established elite-winners no longer growing.
Incidentally, ZSV work can be found at ArtComp'98, which, as I
remember, too, hit the top three. Cc999 on his work "Love"
should also was involved, but because of the overlap and
problems Organizer cc999, she missed the compo. : (On this
point see ZX-Pilot # 37 with a full report on the cc999.
There is another work which, to my great surprise,
ranked only eighth place. This work Rom ^ Progress
"Matrix". This work also combines all the advantages and very
effectively looks. The fact that such a legend as a ROM,
decided to again support the scene for his work pleases. It is
a pity that she was not included in prizes.
Oh and lastly, here is how I would set up the above work:
1. -F1-- ZSV ^ Constellation i.a.
2. Matrix - ROM ^ Progress team
3. Two sights - PheeL ^ Antares
4. Having Fun - Paracels ^ Placebo
5. New skin - Diver ^ 4th Dimension
kristoph: could comment on the opinion Justinas'a, but
I think the subject is already quite old, and better look to
the future, discuss new parties, to evaluate new artists. And
now - thanks to me, beloved; D, for being "translated" this
