OUIL504 Illustration 1 Moving Pictures - Initial development





My inital ideas for the Moving Pictures brief were more of a general view of Naomi Klein's work - looking at animating scenes from her writing, or things that she'd written about. 

I was really pleased with the outcome of the final collage work I did during the introductory element of this module, and I originally planned to use that aesthetic for these animations - taking photos of them in Dragonframe and moving them stop-motion style. I've animated this way before, so i'm familiar with the process.

These were originally planned to become six 10-second stings - but after crafting the assets for the houses I decided it would most likely be too laborious and time consuming to finish them all to this quality, and promptly abandoned the idea - looking into other ways to go about animating instead.

The main video I looked at for context here was a music video for the band Giangrande - titled 'Paper Plane'; all the assets were hand-painted by an Illustrator called Felicia Sata, who then handed these assets over to an animator who made the video

Here is the video, and their animation process below:
