My 3D animation storyboard

This is my storyboard for my 3D animation, this tells you about the music that I'm going to put into it and a bit about it. It just gives me a bit of information for it.

 This is my finished 3D animation

My Encyclopedia Of Animation

This is my encyclopedia of animation, this tells you what animation is and a timeline from 40,000 AD all the way to the present day. I have done this for my target audience which is for children.

My designs of clay for my new 3D animation

These are my characters for my new 3D animation I have decided to do fruit with clay because I didn't have much time to do it because I had to change my idea, but know I have done them I think my animation is going to be better than the teddy bear one. I got the idea from the program ooglies. I am really proud of my clay animation because I have only touched on it this year, doing a bit of morph animation so I was really pleased of what I have achieved. In the first image they are the cherry first aids which save the grapes from drowning. The middle picture is of the evil apple who going to be like the pipe- piper who leads them to jumping in, and in the third picture is of the grapes which are the ones who get saved.

What I have Done So Far ...

So far I have started my new 3D animation, I have done the schedule and the production risk assessment and also my recce for it as well I have started on the characters by making them out of clay.

my new 3D Fruit Proposal

 The medium I am going to use for my 3D fruit animation is going to be clay animated. I am also going to take series of shots about 19 per second on a SLR camera. The animation is going to be Fruit drowning in water and then getting saved by cherries. It is going to be based in a kitchen sink which is the main setting of the animation, once I have finished the animation I am the going to put music on it and put a bit of voice over so that you get each individual character.

My audience is going to be aged 5 – 12 years of age simply because it fruit talking and moving, and it’s something that I would associate with children in this age group rather than someone older. This age group is also because when I have done my research like in the TV program ooglies, I found that this age group is what they try and aim for as well.

My style for my animation is going to be quiet bright and colourful in some area, but when the apple comes on it’s going to go a bit darker to show that he is an evil apple. Also it going to be set in a natural environment simply because it fruit and from my research in ooglies they seem to use a more natural setting and use things which you would expect in that place of the house. My setting is going to be really simple and when the cherries come on they are going to be bright so tat the audience know that they are trying to help the grapes in a way.

I got the idea of my 3D animation from the TV show ooglies, this show is really like what I want to achieve because it uses the same types of techniques I want to use and a similar setting as well. I have also been looking at different clay animated shows like the morph and seen how they made the characters move and they way they moved there mouths and body. My animation is going to start off with an apple moaning and grumbling, then he sees the grapes and like the pipe- pipper he leads them to the sink and one by one they go into the water but can't swim, then the cherries come to the rescue and save them then there is going to be a close up of the apples face grumbling, and then you see the cherries bring the grapes alive and then they sing a song at the end.

The length of my animation has to be about 1 minute long so during this time I’m going to have to fit in with all my scenes with the apple and the grapes drowning and the cherry’s saving them ECT.

My recce and production schedule for my new 3D Animation

These are my recce and my production schedule for my new 3D animation, I am doing the animation at my home because there I have a sink and a blender and everything I need is there which is good, because I can work at my own paste and don't have a time limit, also I am not limited to resources.

My new 3D fruit animation idea- schedules and risk assessment

This is my production schedule for my 3D animation of my fruit idea. This is a another idea which is going to be my finial one, it tells you were about I'm going to be shooting, and what hazards might be a problem and how I'm going to reduce it.

This is my shooting schedule and my shot list for my 3D animation, these tell me what shots I'm going to do and were about's I'm going to do the shooting and what days ect.

My 3D Animation- Bear reading a book

This is part of my teddy bear 3D animation, know I have done part of it I have relied that it isn't as good as what I expected it to be, and that I am going to do another 3D animation which I have a mind map for, the reason why I don't think it will work because I have done it in images so it doesn't work as well as I want it too also I needed more images to make it flow more.

Research Into My Encyclopedia

This is my research of were I found some of the information to give me a bit of background knowledge of animation I then put it into my own words and set it out like a book.

On this link underneath is were I got I found some information about the dates of when animation was developed, the link underneath is a timeline of events of animation, I used some of this information because it was really useful but I put it in my own words.

http://joshuamosley.com/UPenn/courses/Ani/AnimationHistory.html

There is a couple of links were I some information about the persistence of vision from, on the websites they were okay to get a bit of background from and to get more information on it because I wasn't quiet sure on it.

http://animation.about.com/od/glossaryofterms/g/pervision_def.htm

http://www.grand-illusions.com/articles/persistence_of_vision/

On the link below this is were I got a bit of information about what is animation, this link was really useful because it had pictures and short clips on it, which I had a look at. It was really helpful and useful.

what I have done so far

Today I have completed my 2D animation and put music onto it which sounds really good with it I have also started doing my 3D animation, which I took pictures of a couple of days ago. I have also finished my scene for my 2D animation for my monkey's and my human setting.

EVALUTATION ANIMATION 2D Finished

2D evalution animation (schedules and shot list )

 

 This is my shot list and my shooting schedule, these give me a good in site to which shots I want to produce in my 2D animation and what days I'm definitely going to start shooting. 

This is my production schedule I am going to keep to this as much as possible, it tells me how much time I have and when to start doing each bit, to make my production look good, I have made enough space for my editing and shooting for my 2D animation.

What I have done so far

I have finished my animated animals and started on using stop motion program to start on my 2D animation which I'm aiming to finish tomorrow. I have also finished off my shooting schedule for my 2D animation and my recce and also my storyboard for my 2D and 3D animation.

My finished crocodile and dinosaur

This is my dinosaur and my crocodile finished, I have had to go over them again with pencil crayons and put pins in the legs so that they can move the legs in the animation.

Production Paperwork for my 3D Animal Animation

The 2 pictures are of my 3D animation of my location recce of were my 3D animation is going to take place. I have also done a production schedule of my deadlines and wen I'm going to finish them and start the filming and editing ect.

The 2 photos above are f my shooting schedule for example were I am going to do my filming on which days, I have decided I'm going to do half of the filming in college and the other half in Lees Library, I have also done a shot list of which camera shots I want to do in my filming, and were about on my storyboard it going to go.

Production Risk Assessment For My 3D Animal Animation

This is my production risk assessment for my 3D animation, it tells me when am going to do my filming were about the location is and the hazards and how am going to prevent it.

My Production Assessment for my 2D animation

This is my production risk assessment for my 2D evaluation animation. This is so I know when am doing my production dates and were about I'll be doing it. I have also look into conclusion about the hazards and how I can prevent them from happening.

2D Evaluation Animation- Location Recce

This is my location recce for my 2D evaluation animation. This tells you the possible hazards that may accrue, sound information which I wouldn't really need, also it tells you about the shooting information, and an image to tell you were about's it is.

The Background Scene for my 2D Evalution Animation

 

These photographs are before and after, on the first image it's what I have drawn an outline of the background for the dinosaur scene, and the second image is what it's looks like after I have coloured it in with pencil crayons. 

The image above is for my piranha fish scene which I have done in pencil crayons it's of the sea and the sky in the background.

3D Animal Animation- Storyboard

This is my storyboard for my 3D animal animation, it tells you what is going to happen in each scene and gives you a detailed idea of what each of them will look like. It also tells you what sounds I'm going to use to put over the teddy bear ect.

2D animation storyboard.

This is my storyboard for my 2D animation, and it tells you what each type of shot is going to kind of look like and in the storyboard it tells you what happens in each shot and what sounds are I'm going to put into each scene.

Update of what I have done in my 2D evalution animation

 I have now developed my drawing into colouring them in, with colouring pencils, I have added the outline to the drawings so that they stand out from the background, so that it the first thing you see on the animation.

What I have done so far for my 2D animation

These are the start of my drawings, for my evaluation. I have drawn my dinosaur, crocodile, monkey, piranha fish and a mud skipper. I have started to colour them in, and make them more realistic by colouring them in in pencil crayons.

What I have done in the lession

Today I have edited my proposal so that it gives you the idea I also added more detail to it. I have also today done some more drawings for my 2D animation and also done how I got the ideas from and explained it. I got some pictures off the internet and started to draw them on card.

3D Animation- Were I got the idea from

 Cars Animation Idea:

 I got the idea of the car animation idea from the film 'cars' I was going to do an animation like this were there are cars on the track racing each other, in the film there is small part were there is a car race, which looks really good. If I was to do this for my final idea I would change the style of the car and the layout of the track, also change the voices, I would keep the mouth and the eyes the same or similar though.

Chuggington Animation Idea:      

I got the train idea from the TV program Chuggington. The program is about 3 trainee trains, who try different things. If I was to do this for my final idea I would change the setting of scene and change the trains a little and make them different colours ect.




Animal Animation Idea:

I got the animal animation idea from the children's program Bookaboo. Bookaboo is about a dog who can't go on stage without a story which is presented by a celebrity. If I was to do this for my final idea, I would ma,ke it so that instead of a celebrity reading the book I would  make it so that it's the teddy bear reading it. I would also do a voice over on the tddy bear so it looks like it is reading the book but then it goes into the book and makes it come to life.

2D Animation- Evalution Idea detailed plan

 My detailed plan of my evaluation...

This is my detailed plan for my idea for my evaluation animation, this plan tells me what sounds I need and were the animation is going to be made and done. It also tells me about the characters/ animals and what movements they are going to do. This mind map also tells me what each scene is about and what going to be in the background for example with the dinosaur scene it's going to have trees in the background like a rainforest.

Different characters for my evaluation idea...

These are just sketches of my dinosaurs and also a sketch of a caveman this is so that I can get the features right to make it look more realistic. These are just the basic drawings of my evaluation idea, I am going to develop them and put colour on them to make them look more realistic and life like.
