3. Animatic
4. pencil animation
5. scanning
6. colouring/COMPUTER
7. after effects
8. rendering
9. finished

Here is the basic very quick very simple first draft of what i want the animation to look like and play out… Both storyboards and an animatic that runs for 30seconds.

Animated Self// Rough Idea

Today my class was briefed on our last project...
to create a 15 - 30 second second animation the is 1920x1080, Full HD in H264 .mov format. This animation should reflect ourselves - either our own work and it's improvement over the last year or our own approach to being a creative. 

• I'd quite like to animate something that reflects the exhaustion I feel when working on a project but at the same time the overwhelming pride i feel when i complete something.  
• I'd undecided on using traditional hand drawn animation or computer hand drawn, I do love the effect colouring by hand gives but then again with my last animation I loved how crisp and HD it looked. 

Looking over my sketchbooks I do tent to doodle myself and my friends A LOT. So my idea for this animation is to animate myself travelling down the 'animation' time line. So I'd animate myself in different scenario such as storyboarding, scanning, colouring, rendering - and getting more and more exhausted looking until the end where I am proud of what I have accomplished.
