Animation- Work Diary

  This animation was taken on the location of a field and the brightness of the sun created this photograph to be very engaging for its audience. The animation was created by 4 models who were part of my photography class one at a time lifting their hands up then down. The photographs were taken for each indivdual movement and then edited by adjusting the curves and levels of them, flattening the layers, opening on the setting window a time line and then dragging the individual photographs onto the animation timeline in the order I wish them to go in. The editing of this animation was the first time I had done it therefore it was a struggle to begin with however once I understood each step it was straight forward for my next one below. Furthermore the framing of this animation could be improved as their hands are in the shot by an inch when the raise them leaving not enough space at the top.


 This animation is for my personal shoot 2 and was made for my project brief of close ups. The reason I chose to do an animation for coloured pencils is because it makes the simple man made object look very intriguing to view. Also I chose to do an animation for this because it makes a spiralling effect that grabs its audiences attention immediately. Furthermore this animation is very bright and vibrant this is because by adjusting the curves and levels of each individual photograph made the close up technique bring out the beaming colours more and make it look aesthetically professional. In addition the editing process of this animation did take a while because of the amount of layers this animation contains however the finishing images I feel are very well presented and creative.

If I would go back to the animation technique I would work more with other objects changing the colours from black and white to bright colours. I will also be using this technique more in my project because I feel its a fun way to present my work and it looks very professional as well.
