TWO short (6-25 second) animations, completely different
in tone
due Tuesday March 28
("Play" Illustrator file can be found online: C-Tools>"Assignments">Play)
- Animation
MUST end with the word "Play" and the play button triangle
exactly placed as above + 5 seconds of the still frame as a trailer
- Animation
MUST end with final look as solid color outline with flat color (or
none) inside
- Animations must be completely different in tone/mood
for example, playful and dark, jumpy and lethargic, etc...
- This animation
is a short intro piece meant to introduce the Public Television audience
to an artistic video or short produced in the School of Art
and Design
- Katherine
Weider is the Creative Producer for the Art and Design television segments
that will be shown on UMTV. She will make the final decisions regarding
the use of student animations for television.
- Look at BBC2's consistent logo but varying themes for ideas/inspiration
- The animation/movement/style is completely open for interpretation
- Think about
the wide variety of ways this raw Illustrator graphic can be formed
and re-interpreted. From using the shape as a mask, motion path, or
alpha matte or animating the various points individually to creating
3D shapes and lines, the possibilities are limitless.
- Consider
the different ways in which PLAY can be interpreted:
-VCR context with FF, REW, REC, PAUSE, STOP, etc.
-words in which PLAY is a component: playground, playful, child's play, player piano, playing games, foreplay, playing house, etc.
