We received the new project brief this week. It's quite an open brief since the only requirement was that we chose something "man-made". This is what the term means:
I watched Edward Scissorhands the movie from 1990 by Tim Burton. It is a sad story about a "man-made" boy who used to be a robot and had been planned by the inventor that he was to become a real boy gradually. Unfortunately the inventor dies just before the final stage when he was about to give Edward real hands in place of the scissors he had.
It's charming how the character goes through a lot of emotion in the movie but displays it very subtly and I love the contrast between that with the punk outfit he has- it is embellished with lots of buckles, studs, stitches, which are non-functional but add interest to the character.
