Animation Scriptwriting - Making of Tea

Here is a draft storyboard for the making of tea:

Contexts - Researching Definitions

Currently researching definitions for these:

- Historical Inquiry

- Ethnographic Research

Also conducting research on Gantt Chart.

Research to be presented on Friday 29/10/2010

Thoughts: A Gantt chart will help to produce an efficient timetable to schedule animation projects to be created.

Animation Scriptwriting - Production Proposal 1: Shower

I have thought of making a proposal of a short about taking a shower, a mundane thing, in an interesting way. It is one of my favourite mundane things to do, so I will honour it!

Ideas and sketches will be posted soon.

Drip, Splat, Boing - Timing Research (Part 1)

This is a research on timing based on favourite short films, which have great timing in animation.

These are:

* Ryan - Chris Landreth (2004)

* Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers - Aardman Animations (1993)

* Hagane no Renkinjutsushi/ Full Metal Alchemist - Himoru Arakawa (2003-2004)

There are different timing techniques in these 3 shorts which were examined and presented (on 22/10/2010), but one thing was similar: all these shorts with their timing convey emotion in an amazing way.

So, I will strive to convey emotion the best way I can in the animation timing exercise drip, splat, boing

Further research to be conducted...

Hello from Pete

Hello!

Just to say that I am built up this new blog for posting stuff from my Animation MA here at Newport. Will be posting things as soon as I find the opportunity for it but it won't be long.

Stay tuned!
