Final Animation and reflection.......

I am really happy with the final outcome of my animation. It has come out exactly if not better than how I pictured. In response the the original brief I think the animation works in parallel to the music provided and reflects my thoughts and feelings of the track. 

What I would have changed...

I dont think there is anything I would change about my animation as it has come out how I pictured it. If I had more than 30 seconds I may have experimented with the movement of my robot figure and maybe introduced different ways in which the tape moves.

Time management

I feel I have used the time well and given my self 3 or 4 days to polish the animation as well as my blog. I decided to stay in Sheffield over easter to use as much of the time available to get it just how i wanted it. 

3 Words

My original 3 words for this animation were "Growth, Layers, Electronic".

Growth:  I feel I have definitely reflected this word in my animation as the whole concept of the animation involves 3 wires growing to the music around my flat.

Layers: I decided to use 3 layers of tape in my animation to reflect this and also have edited my animation to move to the layers of the music such as the movement of my character.

Electronic: The concept of my animation is basically the movement of electricity from a plug to a television illustrated by 3 electronic wires. I don't think there is much more I could have done to illustrate this word in my animation any more.

What I have learnt

With this being my first look at using animation in graphics I have learnt so much. This project has opened an endless list of opportunities for me. Not only have I learnt about the basic principles of animation but I have experimented and learnt my way around the programmes in which to make my ideas into animated form. Although I have used a camera to produce my animation I have also experimented with other techniques such as drawing and digital forms of animation.
