Animation:
My animation will be based on a text that my friend wrote!
My writing already started so here you go, have a look and leave some comments:
While doing my writing I am also doing some animation research when it comes to techniques and the actual looks of the animation. The colors, the backgrounds, types of brushes or inks… I do know that it will probably be drawn animation because I don’t want to do stop motion and 3D is not what I am looking for.
After my research, these were the ones I kept:
- Vatula – the whirl wind
Colours : Beautiful and dark, Background: Texturized and irregular
2. Miami Hand, Dan Hankinson
I liked the simplicity and the texture of the background.
3. The Head, Dante Zaballa
I was caught up by the watercolor effect on the mountains.
4. Animation tutorial, Vida Vega
This animation includes a really helpful tutorial on how to transform our drawing into an animation – Tutorial
5. Stickboy, Giant Ant
Although I won’t use black and white, I think that the ratio of the animation is really interesting and I might take something from that. I also really liked the type of drawing.
6. O menino e o mundo, Alê Abreu
This is on the top 3 of my favorite animation movies. The animation was hand drawn with crayons (the kids pencil) and I just love how it looks, it is really different and special. This is a great inspiration for me. Now go watch the movie.
Based on this research, I will make a A1 sheet and start with my own sketches, stay tuned!!!
