After we finished our poly portraits we decided to do animation next. We got to pick our own teams and who we wanted to work with. My team consists of Micah Miller, Taylor Chang and Ashley Alfiler. We had to come up with two focus statements that go in the order noun verb noun for example Rock sprouts flower. After we came up with two focus statements that got approved by mr Sanderl , our teacher, we had to come up with a presentation to get feed back from the class about which idea they think would best work. After the presentation we had to fill out a production plan and storyboard to have an idea of how it would look before we actually shoot it and draw it out. We have to make sure that it fits the time requirement of 1-2 minutes with a custom soundtrack.
Our focus statement is rock sprouts flower. So pretty much a sad drab old looking rock gets thrown and stuff and a small seed is planted but cant grow. A girl finds him and decides she wants to keep him. The love and affection that this seed is getting from the girl makes the seed turn into a sprout then later a flower. So the plot is a rock gets found by a girl and the affection the girl shows for him eventually turns into a beautiful flower. the first scene is of the rock getting thrown and kicked around while it gets kicked around.In the second scene Taylor walks up to the rock and picks it up. She also takes it to the waters edge to get washed off. Then in the third scene Taylor walks home with the rock.After in the fourth scene Taylor brings her rock everywhere she goes including surfing and school. Finally in the fifth scene you can start to see the little sprout everyday the little sprout gets bigger and by the end of the animation the sprout is a big beautiful flower.
I thought the critique results were pretty accurate. We did a lot of things good but we could have made those things better. I thought the audio was pretty good and so were most scenes. The drawing and animating on scene 3 could have been better (animated by me). The scenes that Taylor and Ashley did were really awesome and Micah made some really good soundtracks. I thought that the scene I made could have been more high quality. I agreed with the critique because the understanding could have been more clearer and we could have portrayed it so it was easier to understand but it was pretty good overall I thought. I thought that we did really good with originality and executing our idea.
