Animation Reflection

What I Like Most...
I really like my blob. I am glad i chose something other than a person to do because everyone did a person and this made mine more special and unique. I also like my background alot, I did it all myself and used the perspective skills you taught me :). I also like how it moves, though that was quite a bit of work it was worth it to make it look better. Something else i like it how the lollipop with the radial colour fill turned out, i think that helped bring it all together. One last thing that I like it his facial expressions through out, they change and make me laugh, even though I'm the one who came up with them for him.

What I Like Least...
Something i really don't like about my animation is the final transition from carrot to ball, i wasn't really sjure on how to change it back so i did like a colour flow type thing and it looked okay, but could have been improved. I also do not really like his left side at points, it goes straight but because of the amount of frames this was on, it would have been a major chore to fix. A last thing about this that i do not really like is how the ball "melts" I wish the colours would have looked better through out of this.

Yearbook Summative Brainstorming

I d e a s . . .
Book Doodles , Bright Colours and Crumpled Paper.
• have a paper backround and use many different, exciting colours avoidding stand blue and yellow... but not red :). Have a little doodle guy that when animated jumps around the pages.
Magazine style (Main Feature picture being Cosmo)
• Have a magazine called SHHS and use cosmo as the feture shot and come up with creative sub headings like "Flash back of 2010-11 year" etc. And have cosmo mave or something and carry the magazine idea through the other pages with articles/magazine style things.
Black colours, light bursts and eye grabbing
• Use darker colours and pictures of the school and cosmo for the art featured, with light textures and other cool brushes for a bright effect and eye grabbing colours.

I am going to do my last idea. I am more drawn to it than all the others and i think it will make it more my creation than the others would, I think this will allow me to use many brushes and take a more cretive route with this project.
