LECTURES
Week 1
During this week, Mr Martin required us to list 3 short stop motion
films.
Here are the stop motion films:
I really liked the visual transitions and aesthetic of this stop motion
animation. The brilliant use of sound design also helps create
believability and conveys the message to the viewer really well.
This video also has really high level of detail considering its a clay
stop motion animation. The color palette used throughout the video is also
visually aesthetic.
My favorite scene is the clay smiling at the viewer, and the water
droplets floating. The water droplets are actually very well depicted and
the physics can be felt through the screen.
The level of detail in this animation is crazy. They used wood sculptures
and made actual ligaments and links to all parts of the puppet.
Again, the use of sound design in this video is fantastic, the storyline
and mood are well depicted, and the action scenes are amazingly
choreographed and captivating to watch.
The classic food Lego cooking stop motion animation. They switched it up
a little by using actual vegetables. BUT, when cut, they become lego
bricks.
There is minimal sound design in this, but the sounds that are there,
make sense and fits the scene. It gives a very calm, morning routine kind
of feel.

Proposal
Nabil Julius
During the shooting phase, we realized that having small paper cutouts
was going to make it harder for us to make the animation look good. We
decided to overcome this by taking a picture of all the cutouts
individually and animate it in After Effects.
After receiving the files from Tao, my role was to stitch it all together
and add effects to the entire animation.
Act 1
I made a simple background from a cartoon tree and a realistic picture
with grass. I didnt bother with changing the trees to greyscale as there
was already an adjustment layer in After effects that did that.
I also drew a short animation to transition between act 1 and act 2 where
the main character begins to feel the effects of the mushroom.
Act 2
For the trip, I just used an image Tao sent and removed the eyes and make
them transparent. I then used some looping gifs from Giphy as the
background and the eyes.
Act 3
For the end of the trip, I drew another animation of his eyes coming back
around and the main character looking around.
For the ending of the animation, we wanted to have a giant mushroom eat the main character. Tao attempted to do the animation for that but I decided to use a different approach as it fit the video better.
There was a short animation of it walking up to the main character.
I then used Taos other asset he made of the fork.
