Week 5- Animated Documentary

This week we had started off by discussing what all of our next tasks are for pre production. My jobs are now, set design and layout. Dan had given each of us A short story of our animation, this was extremely helpful as he had described how the room will look, the chair that the grandmother was sat on and the outside in which the grandmother is slightly facing looking out of the window.




This made things easier for me and Guy to work from, as Guy was creating the storyboards and me working on the backgrounds and how things would be designed within the room. We had both read it and we all agree that nothing would have to be changed as it pointed out all the valid points that we would need to work from and it tells the story of our animation beautifully. Dan had then wrote a screenplay based off the short story that he had wrote previously.


 

We then had to plan for our first crit of the brief, so we had to complete a presentation of all the work that we had completed so far and the work that we planned to do next, each presentation was 20 minutes long so we all agreed on that we would talk about the areas in which we was most involved in, so for me that would have been the research. 

These are all the slides from our presentation. We had started the presentation in order of which work we had started doing first, so I was talking about the documentaries that we had watched for research which was the Louis Theroux and the Isabella documentary, and the two films which we had also watched which was Wrinkles and Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. I also spoke about how I had emailed care homes to see if we could visit and the poster that I created to place around uni to see if people had any experience with Alzheimer's in their families. We had received really good feedback from everyone and they suggested that we don't create our animation using charcoal and that we use the water colours as they think it would work better with slight colour in our animation otherwise it would be much of a dark animation.
