wednesday
A new vines project yahoo.gif "the vines illustrated lyrics"....it's pretty self explanitry, the idea is you do a visual song interpretation for a vines song...in the end i'd like for every song to have a picture....when it is done I'll hopefully send it to the vines......

Listen to a song look at the lyrics and do a picture of what you think the song repersents.

I got the idea from a book called the beatles complete illustralted lyrics, here is an example from the book.
IPB Image
(for "tommorow never knows")

You can do a painting, a photo, a drawing etc....but prefeably your own work i.e. not a photoshopped picture of craig, unless you took the photo youself, and only if thats what you see in that song.

So that everyone dosn't do the same song i came to the conclusion that i'll put a list of vines songs here and cross them out when somebody does an interpertation for them.....so if you have a particuar song you want to do message me and i'll cross it out for you, likewise if you want to do one for a b side or even something the vines only covered tell me and i'll write it here (and cross it out) for you so other people know it is done...first in best dressed.

*if you want really want to do a song that has already been crossed out mabey you could do a border for the lyrics that would be beside the picture. Also if you would like to incorperate the lyrics into your picture you can do that as well

**you can do more than one song.....but that may not be needed, just start off doing one ....ok guys...in a few weeks you can do another song because the more people who are involved the more diverse the outcome will be.

***i don't know how long this would take confused0006.gif .....if we do it for too long we'll have the next album to worry about...the question is what kind of response will we get....we may want to do the next album as well, i don't know....coment on that if you please.....and help me decide a dead line. (how much time do you need?)

****email or message me your pictures...if you want to send me an original send me a message telling me so, and we'll work something out.

*****invite your friends to do one, as i said it would be good to have some diversity it is not just for board members.

******I hope this all made sense, if you don't understand pm me.


Competition

If enoth interest is shown in this vines project we'll have a little competition to decide who's picture will go on the cover.....afew judges (people who haven't got artistic talent, or the time to do a picture...if you'd like to be a judge tell me, just don't tell everyone) will pick their faverites and we'll have a poll to decide which picture will go on the cover...so put some effort into it.

smile.gif have fun

ooh good idea! biggrin.gif *thinks of song*
Loaded Mind
I like this idea a lot! Count me in. smile.gif It's kinda weird since I was just thinking of doing this anyway. laugh.gif Can I have Animal Machine please? I have no idea what I'll do with it, but I'll think of something.

How long do we have?
Alice
Ooh, great idea! Not sure if I'll draw anything though.. I can't really represent a song's meaning through a drawing. Usually I'd just draw whatever my hand draws when I listen to the song.. whether it's an actual something or just a mess of patterns and shapes. laugh.gif
freakoftheyear
hmmm good idea
gypseyrou2005
I call Winning Days! tongue.gif
SaraGriffiths
I wonna Sun Child biggrin.gif

Hey maybe you have to put a size.Becuase if is a book.....
Later we have to send you the draw?
freakoftheyear
ooh... I will make one... Vision Valley!
daytripper
So hard to choose, but I'll take Rainfall.
dope_train
aw...it's really hard to choose.. i wanna do spaceship
i'm so excited
I love to draw haha
i was gonna draw Craig this week..i guess i'm gonna draw something about spaceship

and alice if you want to do a pattern or a boarder, or even if you just wanted to write out the lyrics of a song in nice writting, that would be ok too, i don't want to set too much because that way we'll get a more interesting result.
Alice
^ Hmn, maybe. I'll take Autumn Shade II then. Favourite Vines song. (:
Usually I tend to draw weirdo patterns when I listen to that song, so I'll write the lyrics out.
PumpkinPieces
Dope Train and Country Yard. I think I'll do pastels since they're quite psychadelic. And i might want to send it to you.
SaraGriffiths
Mi friend Natalia (i invite to participate in the project) wonna do the song "Get Free"
mooshell
What an awesome idea! I think I wanna do....Fuck The World, yeah. happy.gif
gigi
Can you hold Going Gone and Amnesia for me? I wanna see which one of them I can depict better. We'll see what happens. I like this idea very much, Eleanor. smile.gif
thePotIntheGarden
Awesome! Can I have Mary Jane and Atmos?
..O/T: Today has been such a cool day, first all the other stuff and now this biggrin.gif

So, yeah, What sort of dimension guidelines? I know you don't want to really have rules, but they do all need to be bound together eventually.

Well in the end i'll put it in an A4 book, like an art diary or something.....mabey i'll get one of those photography ones with the black pages.......and i'll laminate the frount cover....so don't send me too tiny files otherwise they will be all pixleated when i print them out.....but don't make the files too big otherwise it might crash my computer.


Thanks for the great response....but mabey it would be for the best if from now on you only request to do one song.......because if too many people do two songs some people might miss out....in the end you'll probebly get to do two anyway.....ok, you can do two....but no more than two until a later date and if we run out of songs and still get plenty of interest i might have to only use one of them so more people get to have a go.(yeah i know wishful thinking)

yes you can (you are allowed to, if you mean it's too hard thats different).....that would be great.....i haven't included stuff from singles but thats ok....you can do two....i'm just saying no more than two until you have finished them.......by then we'll know if we need it and also we won't have anyone saying they'll do heaps and then forget.

Alice
Hey, I might let someone else do Autumn Shade II. I can't really figure out what to draw (and I haven;t really drawn anything in ages, so it completely sucks), so I'm gonna pull out of this project and see what other people are drawing. Is that okay? :/
freakoftheyear

mary_jane83
Heeeey, that's one awesome idea. Can i have Fuk Yeh PLZ? pray.gif

Ohmygosh, Maria, We're both doing one one-word-titled song and one two-word-titled song, the latter including a girl's name! biggrin.gif (Anna, you're a dork for pointing this out) (Anna is aware) Anyway, the point is that I wanted to pat you on the back for your song choices, they are awesome. (But we're talking about the Vines here so you can't really go wrong). biggrin.gif

I want to do sunshinin
mia
Wow I only just saw this smile.gif Its a pretty good idea, I'd like to do it, but I dont know if I'll have time sad.gif
Well I'll see what I can come up with...my mind is ticking rolleyes.gif

QUOTE(daytripper @ May 30 2007, 07:18 AM) *

So hard to choose, but I'll take Rainfall.

dry.gif oh well

I guess I'd do Homesick unsure.gif but how I'm not sure :hum:
mia
I have thought a little more about it rolleyes.gif its actualy hurting me trying to get my idea out, but I might do 'Watch the World' instead biggrin.gif I have figured that if it is good enough I could use it for my HSC art portfolio. anyway...
SaraGriffiths
I wonna change Give Up Give Out Give In...Its very difficut...I wonna do better..Homesick or Dont Listen To The Radio, you can decide Eleanor smile.gif

ohmy.gif Sara, that's fantastic!
annie
haha, if i dress up like a tiger and take a photo will that count for in the jungle?
lol =)

i've got a couple of ideas, but i'm not sure if they will work so i'm not going to say i'll do any songs just yet.
i'll try a couple of things first, and maybe pm them to you wednesday (sorry i dont know your real name), and you can tell me what you think.



EDIT: I'm thinking of doing futuretarded, but I'm still not 100% sure on the meaning of the song
anybody got any opinions on what they might think the song means?

EDIT2: MAN THIS IS NO FAIR, you guy's left all the hard songs =P

I'd like to see you do homesick because you see when i was thinking up this idea i did a whole heap of interpritations and i got stuck on homesick even though it's one of my faverite songs, i found it hard to think of anything so it ended up looking exactly like one of my others...i want to see what you think of smile.gif .

would you guys think i'm a hypocrit if i do two....i don't care i'm doing it anyway....i have a brilliant idea for country yard so if you don't mind i'll do it too....i won't take me long.
