My Animation

This is the link to my animation as i had problems uploading it onto my blog. 

Setting and After effects

Setting

I am going to set up a plain white background which will include in it just my sketchbook.





After effects

I took around 230 images and uploaded them onto after effects, when i uploaded them there was a problem and after effects cut some of my images out so i had to go through on the time line to see where the images were missing and cut parts of my animation out. After i had sorted all of this out i then changed my animation into black and white which relates back to one of my descriptive words old english. I then changed the opacity and the begging and end of my animation so it blended in and out.

Tea cups

I covered my teacups with different designs i got from my mood boards. one of them is using lace around the top, second is a tea doily, third is a flower pattern and fourth is the plain writing paper. I wanted to keep my teacups plain and simple.

Development on the dancer

This is the dancer i have decided to chosen. I am now going to cut this dancer out ans also cut around where the dancers joints would be.

This is my dancer when all the joints are cut out. Where i have cut the joints out i am going to put blue tack so then i can move each joint around and make the dancer look like she's moving.

Dancer ideas

These are the four different dancers i have drawn up to choose from.

Draw ballet dancer onto sketchbook.

Dancer come to life.

Dances off sketchbook.

Stack the hand made paper mache teacups up.

Dancer dances back onto page and starts to dancer around the teacups and up them.

Dancer finally reaches the top and slides into the top cup.

Research Images And Materials

I have been researching into my three descriptive words and my music and i have gathered a collection of images and materials to help me along with my designs of the teacups, background and dancer for my animation.

Images out of magazines 


images that relate to england:

Flowers, spring:

Different colours, shapes, cakes, tea sets:

Materials

All these images that i have collected all relate to my three descriptive words. From some of these images i have put together i am going to use them to help me cover my paper mache teacups.
