This is Deadly Art. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:03 | |
I travel the world tracking deadly animals. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:11 | |
ANIMAL SNARLS | 0:00:11 | 0:00:13 | |
But in this show, I'm picking 25 of my favourites... | 0:00:13 | 0:00:17 | |
..and challenging my team of Deadly Artists to recreate a killer moment. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:25 | |
You'll get to make some art yourself, and in the final show | 0:00:27 | 0:00:30 | |
we'll choose which animals will make it into my Deadly Art gallery. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:35 | |
This is no ordinary art show. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
This is Deadly Art! | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
Today we brave the cold to face another Deadly Art beast! | 0:00:43 | 0:00:47 | |
That is a perfect Alaskan wildlife experience! | 0:00:47 | 0:00:52 | |
The Deadly Artists take on another challenge. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
Steve is going to love it! | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
And you can make your own art at home too. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
I've met some really fierce animals | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
and today's contender is no exception. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:09 | |
The brown bear, sometimes known as the grizzly, may look cuddly | 0:01:09 | 0:01:14 | |
but it's still a powerful predator. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
The brown bear's one of the world's largest bears and can tower | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
on its hind legs as much as three metres tall | 0:01:19 | 0:01:23 | |
and can weigh as much as 725 kilos. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
That's the weight of a small car! | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
Brown bears love salmon. They'll gather by rivers in the summer | 0:01:29 | 0:01:34 | |
to catch the fish as they swim upstream to spawn. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:38 | |
All that oily fish helps keep them warm in winter. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
Time to meet the artists waiting in the Deadly Art studio | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
for their mission. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:45 | |
I'm Michelle and I just love being creative. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
I'm all about getting stuck in and making stuff. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:52 | |
I'm Nicola. I'm an ice-sculptress and a power-tool queen! | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
CHAINSAW BUZZES | 0:01:57 | 0:01:58 | |
'In just a moment, you'll join me and the Deadly crew | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
'in a very cold Alaska on the trail of the brown bear.' | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
It's absolutely f-f-freezing! | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
'While we prepare, this is the killer moment | 0:02:08 | 0:02:12 | |
'I'd like captured.' | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
Today there are three essential elements about bears | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
I want our artists to recreate. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
Claws - they're great for grip, climbing, for digging - | 0:02:19 | 0:02:23 | |
when they're not snaffling salmon with those sharp teeth. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:27 | |
To keep warm in harsh winters, the bear has a thick coat | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
with longer hair down its neck. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
And finally, size. This animal is massive on every scale. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:39 | |
Like the brown bear, I want your art to be really big. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
So, Michelle and Nicola, think huge! | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
Firstly, look at the size of him! He's so intimidating. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
We've got to go big. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
And the claws capturing that salmon, let's have that. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
And his fur, it's really thick, let's add texture. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
-What would be cool is something urban, graphic... -Graffiti! | 0:02:57 | 0:03:02 | |
This is going to be interesting! | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
-Have you got it? -Yeah, future bear, coming through! | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
-Let's get this down... -So let's do three bears. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:13 | |
Mummy, Daddy, Baby. This can be our first bear. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
-Let's start drawing out. Got a pencil? -Got one, Nicola! | 0:03:15 | 0:03:18 | |
That's a handy place to keep a pencil! | 0:03:18 | 0:03:22 | |
It's looking great, Michelle. This calls for the power tools! | 0:03:24 | 0:03:28 | |
And Nicola loves her power tools! | 0:03:28 | 0:03:30 | |
Deadly Art to the max! | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
But remember, don't attempt any of these big art techniques. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:36 | |
Nicola is a trained professional. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
'The brown bear is a real greedyguts. So over in Alaska, | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
'we know that where there's salmon, there'll be a grizzly.' | 0:03:50 | 0:03:53 | |
There's loads of animal tracks in the soft snow | 0:03:53 | 0:03:56 | |
along the shoreline here. | 0:03:56 | 0:03:58 | |
We'll go in and get a closer look. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
Sandy shorelines like these are absolutely perfect for holding | 0:04:01 | 0:04:06 | |
prints of animals but soft snow like this is even better. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
And that...is about as perfect a print as you'll ever see. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:17 | |
Big pad there, five discernible toes and you can even see | 0:04:17 | 0:04:21 | |
the claw marks at the end. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
This is exactly the animal we're hoping to find. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
You can see right down to the shoreline here... | 0:04:26 | 0:04:33 | |
And look how deep... | 0:04:33 | 0:04:34 | |
..this has sunk in. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
That's a very heavy animal. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:40 | |
A brown or grizzly bear. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
It's round here somewhere. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
The tracks continue on the other side around the shore | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
so that's where we're heading too. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
'We're about to go much closer on the trail of the brown bear.' | 0:04:52 | 0:04:56 | |
But for now, it's back to the Deadly Art studio. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:59 | |
How are Michelle and Nicola getting on with their graffiti bears? | 0:04:59 | 0:05:03 | |
We've cut out our family of bears and the next stage is to colour in | 0:05:03 | 0:05:08 | |
the background. For that, I'm using a mix of two browns. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:12 | |
Oi, Nicola, chuck us that brown. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
Cheers. We're using a black marker to highlight the outline. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
I love this bit. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:19 | |
That's certainly coming together, | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
now for a Deadly Doodle with Michelle. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:27 | |
I'm going to show you how to make a Deadly Doodle of a brown bear. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:32 | |
I start by drawing a horizontal line...across this paper... | 0:05:32 | 0:05:38 | |
and two triangle shapes down, one on either side. | 0:05:38 | 0:05:43 | |
Halfway down this you're going to do another horizontal line across, | 0:05:43 | 0:05:49 | |
and a rectangular shape along the side, | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
with a circle inside. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:53 | |
Then another circle on the top. And here, a triangle sticking out, | 0:05:53 | 0:05:59 | |
and a kind of triangle shape at the back. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
Next, get a brown marker pen and start to draw around. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:07 | |
The great thing about the marker pen, is it already gives | 0:06:07 | 0:06:11 | |
that nice, furry effect. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
Give him a nice eye... | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
..and it really helps to add some texture. | 0:06:17 | 0:06:22 | |
And you can use it to accentuate things like his big, chunky legs. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:32 | |
Once you've gone all the way round, you're going to do some shading. | 0:06:33 | 0:06:38 | |
I've got a dark brown and a light brown pencil... | 0:06:38 | 0:06:42 | |
and just go round the edges. Nice, messy strokes. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:47 | |
This is going to help to make the bear look a bit more realistic. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:52 | |
When you're doing shading, try and think about | 0:06:53 | 0:06:56 | |
which areas of the bear would be darker than others. | 0:06:56 | 0:07:00 | |
Use a lighter-coloured brown and just go up and out | 0:07:00 | 0:07:03 | |
from those original strokes. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
Just into the picture a bit more. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
And there you have your deadly bear! | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
Stick around cos Nicola's going to be using this in her Deadly DIY later! | 0:07:11 | 0:07:16 | |
That's fantastic, Michelle! | 0:07:16 | 0:07:18 | |
But how's the big art coming along? | 0:07:18 | 0:07:21 | |
Because the claws are one of Steve's essential elements, | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
I'm going to use a stencil, so I get really sharp, defined lines. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:27 | |
Then it will look extra deadly! | 0:07:27 | 0:07:29 | |
The white spray paint really defines those large claws. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:36 | |
Look at that! | 0:07:38 | 0:07:39 | |
Stencils are used a lot in graffiti art, | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
and I've put one on the bear's face to give it structure and character. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:48 | |
'Let's leave Michelle and Nicola for now and head back to Alaska. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:52 | |
'The footprints in the snow are leading us to a perfect sighting.' | 0:07:52 | 0:07:55 | |
Oh! | 0:07:55 | 0:07:57 | |
Oh! Bear! Bear! | 0:07:57 | 0:07:58 | |
Dead ahead of us! | 0:07:59 | 0:08:01 | |
Look at that! | 0:08:03 | 0:08:04 | |
Just wandering along the shoreline! | 0:08:05 | 0:08:09 | |
Oh, my goodness! Look at that! | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
He's going right into the water. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:14 | |
He's just caught a salmon! | 0:08:14 | 0:08:17 | |
He's just reached in and grabbed a salmon. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:20 | |
At this time of year, when they have so much food available, | 0:08:22 | 0:08:26 | |
he's quite unlikely to attack us | 0:08:26 | 0:08:28 | |
unless he starts to feel that we're a threat to him. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:31 | |
So I think it's important that we just go in | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
carefully and cautiously. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
Just feel our way around things. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:38 | |
Oh, look at that. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:45 | |
He's come back to get the rest of his dinner. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:48 | |
That is the perfect Alaskan wildlife experience | 0:08:51 | 0:08:55 | |
and even though you can't see him right now, | 0:08:55 | 0:08:58 | |
he is no more than a couple of metres back from the edge. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:02 | |
It never ceases to amaze me how an animal that size | 0:09:02 | 0:09:06 | |
which is obviously within metres of us, can just vanish. | 0:09:06 | 0:09:10 | |
But he's there, he's watching us. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:13 | |
He's just sat, looking right at me. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
He's coming back down to the shore again. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
Look, here he comes. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:21 | |
He's just sniffing the air, | 0:09:23 | 0:09:25 | |
just sussing us out. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:28 | |
But then, this IS one of the largest carnivores in the world. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:32 | |
What a privilege! | 0:09:36 | 0:09:37 | |
Oh, here he goes! | 0:09:38 | 0:09:39 | |
Yes! Look at that. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:43 | |
They are so efficient. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:50 | |
That's just incredible. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:52 | |
They are utterly spectacular predators. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:56 | |
I don't believe it! | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
THAT was certainly a grizzly encounter. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:05 | |
Now it's time for a Deadly DIY. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:07 | |
I'll show you how to make your own bear graffiti | 0:10:07 | 0:10:11 | |
using a stencil technique. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:13 | |
I've started by drawing the outline of the bear using the Deadly Doodle | 0:10:13 | 0:10:17 | |
that Michelle showed you earlier. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:20 | |
Using a scalpel, I'll cut him out. You might want help with this. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:24 | |
Nicola's right. Scalpels can be dangerous, | 0:10:24 | 0:10:27 | |
so get grown-up supervision. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:30 | |
Try to pick up as much detail as you can. All these textured fur lines, | 0:10:30 | 0:10:37 | |
every single little edge. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:39 | |
There you have your bear stencil. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:44 | |
Now it's time to have some fun. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:46 | |
I've been out and about, finding unusual places to put my bear. | 0:10:46 | 0:10:50 | |
I thought it might be nice for him to have a walk in the park. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:56 | |
I've taken a photo, blown it up to A3 size, | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
and I'll place my bear into the picture. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:03 | |
Using some brown paint and sponge, I'll dab inside the stencil. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:11 | |
Make sure you get into all those nooks and crannies, | 0:11:11 | 0:11:14 | |
right up to the edge, | 0:11:14 | 0:11:17 | |
so you really define that outline. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
Make sure you hold the stencil firmly in place. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:23 | |
I'm using a bit of white to define those important areas. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:31 | |
The front of the legs, the top of the bear's back and head. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
When you've finished, very carefully remove your stencil | 0:11:34 | 0:11:41 | |
and there you have it - your bear in the park. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
Those pigeons had better watch out! | 0:11:45 | 0:11:48 | |
Now you can really have some fun with it. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:50 | |
I thought my grizzly bear might be more at home in the snow. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:56 | |
Following that, maybe he wants to take himself off | 0:11:56 | 0:11:59 | |
for a nice warm holiday by the ocean. | 0:11:59 | 0:12:02 | |
Looks a bit warm for a grizzly bear, so it's time to take himself home. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:06 | |
Thank goodness he's using a zebra crossing. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:12 | |
Give it a go yourself. Back to the big art. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:14 | |
I'm using this stencil - it's a simple S-shape. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
Lighter shade of brown and this will add extra texture | 0:12:17 | 0:12:21 | |
to our essential element of thick fur. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:24 | |
-Michelle, check this out. -That looks vicious! | 0:12:28 | 0:12:32 | |
Let's get them into position. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:34 | |
I don't know about you, Michelle, | 0:12:44 | 0:12:46 | |
but I'm REALLY happy with our graffiti. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:48 | |
We definitely got the size sorted. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
And those claws look menacing. I wouldn't like to be a salmon. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:53 | |
I love the texture you've created with that fur - it looks awesome. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:57 | |
-Steve will love it. -He better! | 0:12:57 | 0:13:00 | |
So, it's time for the big reveal. Remember, this is the killer moment | 0:13:01 | 0:13:06 | |
I challenged my artists to recreate. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:08 | |
Let's look at our bear family in all its glory. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
Oh, that is fantastic! Truly deadly. | 0:13:13 | 0:13:17 | |
These bears represent all the qualities | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
I asked Michelle and Nicola to include. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:22 | |
This bear's overpowering height represents | 0:13:22 | 0:13:25 | |
what a fearsome creature it can be - a fantastic killer moment. | 0:13:25 | 0:13:29 | |
Massive art on a massive scale. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:31 | |
The claws are huge, | 0:13:31 | 0:13:32 | |
and the way Michelle and Nicola shaded them so realistically, | 0:13:32 | 0:13:36 | |
it's really impressive. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:37 | |
The fur's great, the choice of stencilling is sheer genius. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:41 | |
Very nice - art doesn't get any deadlier than this. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:45 | |
That's a top Deadly rating from me, | 0:13:46 | 0:13:48 | |
but will it make it into my Deadly gallery? | 0:13:48 | 0:13:50 | |
Maybe. See you next time for more Deadly Art. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:53 | |
