Overall I am very pleased with the way this project has gone, even though at the very start of the project I had a hard time deciding what ‘line/phrase’ to base my animation around. The reason I went with the concept of ‘watching to much T.V. will give you square eyes’ is that it is just [...]

I did a bit of research into different versions of the specsavers ad, also finds a spoof, hopefully to give me a few ideas on how to modify my animation slightly to make it more interesting. The idea was was since my idea was based around ‘watching to much TV will give you square eyes’, [...]
So far the animation is going fairly well although I had a bit of truble with the layers. Taking the original picture cutting Thomas out of the picture, then drawing over the background in flash and layering the cut out version of my brother on top. It took me a while to figure out but [...]
These pictures will be used for a base of my animation. It will be a basic stop motion animation, my brother will be cut out of the photo, I will animate the background and double the picture of my brother over the top. Also the picture of the television can have an animated screen.
Here is a quick version of the same picture that I drew on flash, the same idea but instead quickly draw out on flash. I think this idea works better because it looks a lot more comicial than the first. In the first one I think I was trying to make it look a bit [...]
I did a test on Adobe photoshop, to try a different way of getting a ‘squared eye’ effect on the main character. In the final piece my brother will be playing the main character, but for this test I took a picture of myself and imported it into photoshop where I just used the smudging [...]
I had the idea to possibly include myself in the animation as the main character, and then animate everything around me. Even though I want to switch styles I still like doing the ‘draw’ effect, but I thought perhaps I could combine it with stop motion animation to make something unique and interesting about the [...]
Here is a ruff copy of the storyboard for the second version of my flash animation.
I have a copy of a storyboard that will be put up in my next post (my scanner has magicly stopped working). Anyway here are screeen shohts from my flash animation v2, experimenting more with camera angles and trying to reduce the overall time of the animation. Before anyone points it out though I accidently [...]
