Bad Apple!! - Stop Motion PV

I love stop motion and i love this video i think its great and i would love to be able to do something like this someday. wright know i don't really have the patience in the end my walking person becomes a running person because i rushed the ending. I have a question about stop motion and i wonder if you can answer it. WHAT GIVES STOP MOTION LIFE?

Critical Evaluation
The whole stop motion was in black and white and not in colour. The reason why i think the artist did it in black and white is because doing it in colour would be a lot harder and the fact you don't really need it to be in colour because you can see that its women and that you don't need the detail inside.
I was intrigued by how detailed it was i all ways thought if you drew a stop motion you would draw it with less detail. The use of detail make the characters flow more delicately and elegantly.
I believe the artist used only paper and fel tip pens to create this kind of work and detail, he used at least over 6000 pieaces of work in this stop motion.
the reason i believe why he did this is because he wants to show that you can do this tipe of work in stop motion and the amount of detail as well, the reason why im thinking that is because of the numbers going up at the bottom of each peace of work he or she does.

Invention of Love (2010) - Animated Short Film

I really like this short movie its very emotional and i love the animation i love the style of the animation. I also love the choice of colour how the background is the only one that really changes colour.

Critical Evaluation

If i were to tell someone about this movie i would say how they first met and the reason why the women became sad and why she died and the reason why the man decided to create the women he loved out of machine and why he becomes so sad and depressed.
This movie reminds me of the heart braking love story of Romeo and Juliet, what reminds me of Romeo and Juliet is the loss love of there partner and how they deal with the loss.
The reason i believe he used the colour black a lot is because it stands out and it shows the darkness in life.
When i started to watch this movie i realised the some one was going to die or that there was going to be a really sad ending. The reason why i believe there was going to be a sad ending is because love always ends in sadness because they will die in the end before or after you. I new this short movie was about love because it reveals this in the title.
I believe this animation was created by a computer software but to me it reminds me of shadow puppet.
I would say the artist did a very intense piece of work about love and the reality of loss.

Green screen

I had a class where we got to uses the green screen. I didn't quite like it i find it quite intimidating and complicated for me. I will use it if i had to but i dowt i'll use it if i have a choice.

Storyboard

I did this in one of my lessons and i found it quite difficult to do. The reason why i found it so hard is because i was supposed to do a storyboard of emotion's, so i couldn't draw someone showing emotion i had to draw that emotion. I really didn't find it fun at all, what i wanted to do was draw a storyboard that had people showing emotions, so anyway this is a drawing of a emotion starting from calm to fear it took me a long time to do it but once i new what i was doing i was fine.

Critical Evaluation

I would describe the shapes as drawings of emotions and the use of colour was to show the emotion getting more active, I would say the lines are to keep the emotions in (bottle up your emotion). I'd say that most people would show the emotions on people’s faces and not the emotion itself. I created this piece of work on the computer using the software adobe flash and using a Wacom tablet. If I were to put instruments in with this piece of work it would start off with a flute, violin, trumpet, French horn and it would work its way up to a piano, guitar, cello and end with the drum kit and cymbals.

I believe the use of colour I used was quite powerful; I think people have a strong link to colours to show emotion. I dislike the fact I’m showing what an emotion would look like and I would prefer someone showing the emotion instead.

Drawing class

Today in my drawing class we had to draw the outside lines of objects but only consintrate on the backgroung. I found that exstreamly difficalt and anoying, i really didn't enjoy it. I did how ever injoy drawing from someone elses mind, they had to think of some where tell me what its like and i would have to draw it, it was quite fun and i enjoyed that more than the lines excersise.

realism

This painting called "A mill" was created by Gustave Courbet. I like how this painting blurrs into the colors and gives it that realistic look. Gustave Courbet was popular for his remarkable realism. He was the leader of the French Realist movement in 19th century.

Abstract painting

This is an abstract piece created by Picasso, this painting is called Guernica and was
made in 1937. it was an abstract piece of the bombing of guernica. this was during the Spanish civil war. I see people suffering. the centre of the painting seems to be lit highlighting what is happening.

Berserk rotascope

I thought this one was even better than the first one i posted. i love how they kept the video and not deleted it, i love how he is fighting with it, it makes it more realistic. i would love to be able to try doing these at home all i need is the wright software.

"Kung Fu Fighting" Rotoscope

This short clip i found on youtube i really like it, i like the fact even thow it was short it had alote of detale. i like how non wobaly the lines are most of the rotoscopeing i have seen are very wobaly.

Motion comic

In my spare time I have been looking at motion comics I have only seen two different types of motion comics one was called Spider-woman and the other was Buffy the vampire slayer. My favorite would have to be Buffy, because i have always watched it and it was different seeing it in animation instead of reality. What i liked out of motion comic is that they don't miss out on all the different types of monsters where in the reality one they might have not got a lot of money to be able to create the monsters that they need. what I didnt like about the motion comic is the fact you can never tell who is saying what because the lips don't move when they talk. I like this sort of animation because its different and I like the fact it doesn't move as much as an ordinary animation.

Animations Goofs and Errors

I remember watching animation and allways finding mistakes but i always found them funny and not anoying i think my favorite would have to be bambi. I was going to show you that scene but i couldn't find it on the internet so when you watch bambi watch the part when everyone is on a little island after the forest fire theres a baby hedgehog that apears and reapears its really funny.

Mood Board

This is a Mood Board that I and tiffany did; we had about an hour and a half to do it. We picked the pictures off the internet and the pictures are about chaos, we couldn't really find anything that could represent order so we decided to draw what we think order might be. Tiffany sketched the idea of order and I drew it on the computer with a tablet, I drew it on the computer because she hadn't used a tablet before. I like the drawings I think there simple and gets to the point, I also like the righting to say what the pictures mean. What I don't like and what I would change is the background it’s to plain and there could have been something there that could link order and chaos together, but all in all I think it was a very good first try and now I know what to do the next time I have to do a mood board.

Creature Comforts

In my video and audio class we had to watch one of these creature comfort videos and wright what we hear in the video and exsplain the reason.

>Hearing cars in background-when outside cars can be heard clearly when inside more distant. the sound is identifying where they are.
>There are dogs barking in the background and theres some rustling coming from the mike. There are birds whistling and you can hear children in the backgroung when hamster is talking, the sound of the children is giving you a perspective of where they might be.
>There is a cat and a dog on the sofa_house is creaking and a person is moving in the background.
>Cat on chair_classical music identifying the house as "posh"
>When dog talks about scratching a man scratches himself which makes you more aware.
>When flea is talking you can hear other fleas jumpingin the background.
>Security dog_mechanical sound in background-perhaps made using a fridge.
>Dog show-clapping/dogs barking in the backgroung of dog show.
>Background people laughing when jokes are made.

The question of this video is-"which is more reliable the cat or the dog". I belive most of the soundscape was recorded in natural enviroments, except for one sound in the flea section is "foley".
