Are animation is about 4 people who drink this drink and a magicly put onto a deserted island in the middle of nowhere they have to drink the drink to get back but the cant find it so they look around and . . . you'll have to watch it when we are finished to see it! HAHAHA!

We have nearly created out animation! we have got a great storyboard, crazy sound effects and now all we need to is to create the backround and modle the charaters, we have already had a play around with the apple macs but i think its going to take forever! but it will look great,!

Today to help us plan a story board we played a game called conesquencs. We create crazy characters and so story boards. The idear is you have pen&paper and draw a head -as crazy as pos!- and fold the paper and past it to the next person, whom will draw the arms and body, next the bum and last the legs&feet. The last person opens it up and shows everybody what they have got, next that person would write a character for theme.g Name, Job, Likes/Dislikes, Family, Where they live and so on. We also played The same game with a story, Miss would give us an phrase where we would right a stentance and pass it on so for you'll end up with a crazy story!!.

Today is my first day on planning my animation!, My task is generation of idears for my anaimation. I'm not sure on my story board but i'm got an idear of useing superheros!

My animation work.

I watched some animations yesterday and here our some of my thoughts;
Two sisters; This was a 2D animation. There were two sisters (obv) who were hiding away on a island in the middle of no-where and it was shown very strangely manly because of the lighting i found it hard to watch.
Sunset Strip; This was a 2D animation.This was a very different one to watch as it wasn't people or animals or objects it was paintings moving with very crazy music and sounds. I guess you could see the sunset as the man colours were red orange yellow and then blues.
The Mill; This was a 2D animation, but this was a oil on glass animation. It had really good detail. This was a really good animated peace i really liked the detail and the drawings of it, but the story let in down.
The lucky Dip; This is 3D animation and this was my favourite. The modeling was really good and it had a story that made sence to me as the others didnt.

I have to research, create and produce an animation 1-2 minutes long. The theme is 'Fusion'.

Homework, review on animation.

Well i scearched on youtube anaimation, and was abit erm . . . ?, but had a look and found a worm animation watched it and found it quite funny. Then watched it again and thought about the graphics and how they draw it and how they done it. I thought the graphics were really good, e.g. when the worm was dogging the bullets i really thought it looked good, Also i thought the drawings were amazing plus the sound effects in the animation, and the 'real life' gun with the animated worm looked really good. I also found it really funny. Over all i give this animation 4/5 but the youtubers give it 4.5/5.

Check it out! At youtube 'Worms in 3D'
