P3. Finished animation

This is my finished animation. It is 2 minutes 18 seconds. I created it with stop motion and flash and putt together in premiere pro.

Animation progress so far - 1.22

So far I have done 82 seconds of my animation. I have around 30 seconds left to do,which will be stop motion.

My animation so far:

To finish it I will come in on Wednesday (9th) and Friday (11th) to finish the last 30 seconds. I have done everything on the checklists.

P3. Animation process and equipment set up

Flash

I am using flash to create the "dream" effect. For each object I created I made a different layer. I then put the object in the right position by using keyframes. To move an object, such as the football I used a motion tween. To do this you "ctrl" and click on the start keyframe. You then press "create motion tween". To get it moving you put the object at the starting position on the first keyframe then at the end of the keyframe you put the object where you want it to stop. You can tell that the motion tween has worked if a line shows the journey of the object and if the keyframes turn blue.

Stop motion in flash:

After I had the stop motion pictures I needed I imported them into flash and put them into the order they needed to be in. I then edited some of them e.g. added z's to show snoring. I did it all on different layers and used keyframes to place them, like I did before. 

Some of the stop motion I edited in flash:

All animation put together:

After editing the stop motion in flash I put all the videos I had created together in premiere pro. I also added sound effects and effects e.g film dissolve.

P3. Final animation planning

'The dream' 

It will be a short film. I will be making it on flash and mix it with stop motion. The short film will then be put together in premiere. I have chosen these styles as I am interested to see what they will look like together.
The genre will be slightly comedy and fantasy. I think it will be fantasy because it's about someone's dream.

Storyline: The animation will be 2 minutes, 120 seconds
The man will be sleeping and dreaming about being a footballer. He would score a goal and whilst celebrating get hit by the ball. After this the person will wake up and get ready for work, unhappy. The guy works in an office wearing a suit at a computer.

P3. Set design for stop motion

Set 1 will be used to film the opening of my animation. It will be created out of cardboard, tissue paper and a real clock. I will be using a wooden mannequin to be the person.

The second set will be the office where the character works. It will be used for the "at work" scene which is the last scene. It will also be made out of cardboard and tissue paper.

P3. Final animation treatment

Treatment from DanaLH

P3 Animation progress so far

My first idea was to do a lyric video for the song I miss her by Jessie J. I did this on flash:

I decided that I didn't want to do this anymore as I didn't like it. Also there are many lyric videos for the song. Instead I have now decided to do a music video but still for the song I miss her by Jessie J. I am still using flash. I am using different angle lines to show movement a bit like its a video being rotoscoped.

This is my music video so far. I have done the introduction and the window that is in the video all the way through.

P3. New treatment

P3. Animation research - Animated lyric video

Payphone - Maroon 5 ft Wiz Khalifa

I like this lyric video because it is very detailed and uses a thought/speak bubble a bit like the idea I have for my animation.

Magic - Coldplay

I like this video because I like the style of animation they have used.

Count on me - Bruno Mars 

I like this lyric video because it is cartoony which is the way I want to do my video. Also it is created on flash which is the software I will be using.

However I also like the idea of hand drawn animation. For example I like the line effect of the person who is made out of entirely lines and making it all on paper and putting it together in after effects.

P3. New initial planning

Animation planning
I will be making a animated lyric video. It will be created on flash and I will be doing the drawing using a tablet. It will be for all ages and for anyone that likes the song. I have chosen to do this because I like music and have always wanted to do a video.

Some ideas: 
Animated music video of Jessie J - I miss her.
- Has a girl praying at a bed. At the beginning the artist and song name will be on the bed.
- A thought bubble is above her with the lyrics and appropriate actions. 

It's not fair
I'm talking to You upstairs      Stairs to clouds.
Are you there? 

You know I care
So please don't tell me that this is an empty prayer       Prayer hands with empty written on
Oh no

'Cause all she has and all she's lost     Woman sitting in chair with boxes with has and lost around her
I wish she could remember
I watch her fade and slip away           Woman fades away
It's hurting more than ever                 Girl has a tear rolling down face

[Chorus]
I miss her even though she's still here       Girl shouting at god
You need to listen
Don't let her disappear
I'll give her my forever                              Girl falls to floor. Hands on chest and crying
If it meant for a day she could really be okay      
'Cause I miss her
Even though she's still here

Is this pretend?                                       Walking into her in street. Woman doesn't remember her, hi...
Will she really not know my face?           
In the end                                               Woman has a friend next her
If You're a friend a friend a friend          Girl looks at friend
Show me how to heal it when she can't even feel it   Plaster appears on woman
Please... show me

'Cause all she has and all she's lost     Woman sitting in chair with boxes with has and lost around her
I wish she could remember
I watch her fade and slip away           Woman fades away
It's hurting more than ever                  Girl has a tear rolling down face

I miss her even though she's still here    Girl shouting at god
You need to listen
Don't let her disappear
I'll give her my forever                           Girl falls to floor. Hands on chest and crying
If it meant for a day she could really be okay
'Cause I miss her

And promise me this         Pinky promising 
When she goes                  Woman going into clouds
Everything she sees will set her free 
Thirteen and the color green   Clothes turn green
Promise me this                      
That she knows                        People looking up at the sky 
That the people that she loves  Woman is completely gone
Will love her in the skies above

I miss her even though she's still here     Girl shouting at god
You need to listen
So don't let her disappear
I'll give her my forever forever forever    Girl falls to floor. Hands on chest and crying
If it meant for a day she could really be okay
'Cause I miss her
Even though she's still here     Thought bubble and girl praying disappears  

She's still here oh             Picture of Jessie recording the song appears (animated)

I miss her, miss her miss her
I just miss her, miss her miss her     Fades to original picture of her recording the song
I miss her even though she's still here
