Day 31 last day!

Today i placed all the music on the animation. Its a harder task than it looks, you can't just put any old music to it as i found out because it sometimes clashes with the story you are telling. something without lyrics is best bet and the speed and sound needs to be relevent to speed and emotion of the film.

I have mixed feelings about my finish piece some parts i am proud of but then there are parts i am not so proud of. I know the bits that were rushed so maybe its just in my head, all the people i have shown liked it. Hopefully people will enjoy watching it as much as i enjoyed making it :D

Day 30

I placed all my footage together on final cut and put a few transitions in to soften the scene changes. I had a few difficulties with the timing but i think i sorted it and gave enough time between the scene to give the suspense. I also added all of the sound effects.

Day 29

I needed to get all my drawn animation done by the end of today because i will not have access to the programes i need again. i drew all the extra things i needed like the boss and set. I then spent the day putting together the final scene which i feel was much more sucessfull than the other drawn parts. i even managed to make up a small animation for my credits including all the characters from my film.

Day 28

For my title scene I animated around the title which i drew and animated in photoshop. I was unsure of the first attempt so i made a few different versions and with some help from some friends i decided which looked the best.

Day 27

I decided to use still images for my drawn animation so i took photos of the set i made and put them into photoshop. I managed to put together the scene where i go through a tear in the wall. I also put togetherthe small opening scene of jamie,drawn where he gets captured.

Day 26

I was hoping to edit my S.F section and complete it today but i had a problem with exporting it from flash. some of the symbol animations wouldnt play in quicktime. In the end i just redrew each frame in photoshop and imported them from there instead.

Day 25

I put the mario set i filmed into final cut but i decided not to use it as it is too jerky and doesnt achieve what i hoped for. I also spent the afternoon editing my Doom stopmotion animation. I put some sounds and effects and have chosen a song that suits the animation. (Hit the floor.B.F.M.V)

Dat 24

I drew up the rest of the sequenes i needed for the mario section and made a small cut out set. I then filmed the set in the way the story will be. I plan to place the animation on top of it in flash.

Day 23

Completing the rest of the fight scene didnt take long so i could quickly move onto the rest of the streetfighter part where i apear through the background and walk up to the fight. using footage i took of myself in movement i used the rotoscope technique to remove evrything in the images but myself an place it in the animation.

Day 22

I cut out all the images i took for the bad guy (also me) in streetfighter and loaded them into my flash document. I managed to get the majority of the fight scene completed and so far i am pleased with the outcome. i have had some very possitive comments and people have been saying they cat wait to see the finished film. the comical side to it seems to be what attrats people.
