Brief

Design specialism

The first 6 weeks we play around and learn new things, then the other 6 weeks we specialise the project. It is like creative play, so we can play around and find new things that we like and don’t like. 

Weeks 1 & 2- Digital marketing and social media campaigns. 
Week 3 & 4- Motion and animation- working with Alex, doing motion stuff.
Week 5 & 6- Web design- design for digital screens, theory about it, looking at examples, activities. 
Week 7-12- Self-directed specialised production. We pick one area and specialise in it. 

Choose something that you haven’t done very much but want to do more for. 

Personal project (50%)
Final digital deliverables and documentation process. 
We have to have a personal blog, where we log what we learnt in the first 6 weeks. End of semester draw a final report of a maximum of 500 words.

Presentation (50%)
A presentation outlining your experience in the first 6 weeks, your justifications, your process and realisation final pieces, as well as where you would like to take it in the future. 

Week 7 we need to have the final specialisation. Last two weeks are presentations.

Drawing the forest

Image
I initially wanted to do the drawing style to be quite angelic then turn to look darker. So I began to draw the light forest in this way, however it just didn't seem to look how I wanted it. This is when I decided that I wanted the whole video to look very sketchy and unfinished. So, I re-drew the light, then made the dark side. I used the same initial drawing to make both forests just didn't colour in the dark side. For the dark side I decided to make it so it was going from light to dark, with the darkest part being the middle of the picture, I did this because it showed that he was leaving the light and turning towards the darkness (depression).

I did these animations by putting the pngs into aftereffects, and set each image to stay in frame for a certain amount of time, then set the next image to appear directly after it. This is how I did the running animation, montage, and final part. Then after I had animated it I would import the file into premier pro and add it to whole video, to see how it works with the rest of the piece.
