Script to screen - Briefing

A replacement module for creative play, but we'll be working alone which might be better or worse who knows. I think it'll be better as i wont be waiting on other people and I know if i create a story i care about i'll be working my ass off to get it to the best of my ability.

requirements for this module

Production bible
1 animatic

The limitations set to us are that the characters are in one environment and have two main characters focusing on a problem. I need to ask if these can be slightly fudged, such as a large environment with more than one location and secondary characters with small roles. Annabeth mentioned that there are certain things we should try to do to improve our work and in turn get a better grade such as animation reviews and breakdowns.

One of the reasons why i love annabeth is that she shows us some great and insiprational videos. I know that everyone was blown away by the antman animatic as they should cos it was fucking amazing. as well as 'work' by caltech and how they maximised small animations to create an animatic that was near enough a finished product. I'm unsure where I'll be using maya or experimenting with 2d but i think that would depend on the story. The story and script writing process is what is scaring me the most. Creative writing isnt really a muscle ive ever flexed so im nevous going into that realm.

Belbin - Making of

Belbin roles - Making a balanced team Going into this session, I still hadn't decided on which group i want to join but Annabeth said it should be decided by the end of this session. I had offers from a few groups but decided to join up with Jolanta, Elena and Alisha as i knew i wanted to another attempt at a 2-D group project and i felt like this team had good chemistry and was full of talented artists. Annabeth explained Belbin roles to us and how these 9 personalities make a strong balanced team. When going through the Belbin roles i found that these four applied best to me; Monitor Evaluator - I feel this suits me well as i know that the critical side of my brain is over developed and have always thought i had sound judgement when it came to decision making. Working very slowly resonated too deeply and is something I'm trying to work on. Team Worker - I feel that my social relation when working in a group is always good,...

Devil and demons - turnaround and emotions

disclaimer i lost my bag which had the rough 10 sketches as well as the poststick nots for the old lion and the fox, ive redone both but the orginals were much better I've been really enjoying these tasks that Annabeth has been setting us, this being no different. After to speaking to a few people the character that people liked the most was actually my favourite too. I has missed the lecture that this was assigned to us but there was enough information on blackboard to go off that I was lost on what to do. While doing the turnarounds I came to the unfortunate realisation that I was struggling with getting my character to look consistently like its self from different angles. I'm guessing this was the point of the task and this is one of the reason I'm loving this course because I know how much I have to progress and these tasks are shining a light on them. It's a bit sad because personally I like it and I know that's what it takes to improve but on the ...

Interaction - Maya

I don't consider myself the most creative person so coming up with an interaction wasn't the easiest thing for me, overthinking is where I tend to fall short. With that in mind I decided to have my interaction be a fairly basic concept. One block pushes another into a third block, the third block gets angry at the second and tries to push it back but the second jumps out of the way hitting the first instead. To me this was a really basic idea and not really pushing the creative parts of my brain. I have to say that I'm quite glad that I chose to this 'basic' idea. I first realised that I would have a lot to do when I was making the bar sheet, on which I messed up on the first attempt, mixing up the colours I was using to differentiate the boxes. I decided to take my time with this having started it earlier that was asked so I could put more work into the final outcome. I decided not to stray away from the idea and simplifying it further when I was h...
