Hey! Haven't blogged in a while... Well recently my class did an animation project, we were supposed to create metamorphosis using different types of animation. We had to at least use two different types of animation! We weren't allowed to use weapons or anything like that, but that is understandable it is school. I got a new team, this time I was working with Brittain again, Erin, and Sydney! Our focus statement was "Rocky becomes hero". We decided that we should take a rock, named Rocky Armstrong, and transform him into a clay figure that would save the day by putting out a building on fire that held people captive. For our types of animation we decided to use, Stykz, claymation, and stop motion animation.
Before we could get started filming, we had to get a rock because a rock is one of the main stars! For our first scene we had Sydney walk into the scene and set down Rocky, all in stop motion. Then we had a paper slide under Rocky, also in stop motion. After that we used stop motion once more to portray clay coming out of Rocky and building over him to turn Rocky into a humanoid figure. Using claymation we made Rocky, now a human like figure, to walk over to this magical portal and fall into it. When Rocky comes out on the other side, he is in Stykz, and that is where he puts out the fire, and the people trapped in the building run out and thank him. We decided also to add credits at the end using whiteboard animation.
Last Friday we did a critique on all of my classes animations. My team did really well, we actually placed 2nd in the most popular animation! My team is Team 5! Not many people got above and beyonds so I'm happy that some people thought so, we worked so hard. To be honest I didn't think ours was going to be one of the best, I personally liked 1 and 3 three the best, but 1 won so thats good!
