For our live brief project this term, we decided to make it a stop motion short film using card and a multiplane camera to separate the backgrounds, effects and animated characters. Before we started animating for the final film, we decided to do some test shots to achieve our ideal look. The look was meant to resemble shadows, animating the movement of the bodies in stop motion and then adding facial features and the lip syncing in TVPaint or After Effects. Above is one of the stop motion tests I did.
Pre-Production Wow Image
Here is the wow image (hopefully the first of many) for my pre-production film Backpack Tortoise. Not only am I working on this idea for this semester, but I also want to pitch it as my third year film.
'Set on the Galapagos Islands, a baby tortoise born without a shell tries to survive after her family abandon her.'
SHOUT Artist Research
This is my artist research on SHOUT, and is the inspiration for the backgrounds in my film for my pre-production work. I love the flat, bright simple style and to me it's suits the atmosphere of my film very well, since it is a simple story with simple characters.
This was my favourite artist research to do as I already like drawing in this style. SHOUT's original drawings are in the the corner of each drawing I made.
Evgeny Hontor Artist Research
This is my artist research on Evgeny Hontor. Though the original art are all sculptures, I focused more on the fantastical elements of the sculptures, like the colours and patterns, in my paintings. I am not proud of my traditional paintings as they all look messy and the colours have mixed together to create a disgusting colour. I could've done better with the digital paintings too. Though the research didn't turn out right, I think the style will look a lot better when it's used in practice for my pre-production project.
