Here is an example of the classic pendulum experiment that I did using after effects.

Love Recipe
By: Felipe Pizarro S.,Frédéric Bajou, Morgan Bourdon, Jiun Yiing Mow, Loïc Paoli
This is an example of computer animation using CGI. I love the transitioning between scenes, I think that's done really cleverly- especially the one on the scales and the nail polish- icing part.
The part where the man trips over the dog and the cake goes flying is really well done, the anticipation is built up before the incident as we all know what's about to happen and the slow motion makes it more humerous, especially when the dog goes flying!
I also like how, even though we know it's an animation and not real, the cake looks so tasty!
The Colours of Evil- Phillip Simon and Alyse Miller
The lighting at 1:06 I think is really well done and it really looks like a lot of smoke and red lights and builds up the idea that something huge and terrifying is about to appear/ happen, which makes the appearance of a pink fluffy adorable creature even funnier.
I also like the way it flicks through the pages of the book when she's trying to teach the creature how to do the evil things she expected it to do.

Studio Brief 4: Apply
For our final brief of this module, we've been 'let loose' and allowed to do make a 5-10 second animation using any of the processes we've learnt so far on this course. It can be about anything we like as long as it responds to one of the key words: Surprise, Lateness, Love, Hate, Longing, Happiness, Fear.
I thought about the words and came up with a few ideas for Surprise, Love and Fear and storyboarded a couple of them before finally deciding on 'Love'. I did some character designing and worked out how my characters would spin in circles.
I used music in the background of my animation, because they're music boxes and it seemed silly to not have music in it... The song is the opening of an acoustic version of Alter Bridge's 'Wonderful Life'.
If I did it again, I'd put in different camera angles, like I'd wanted to in my storyboard, and I'd try to add more personality to the characters and maybe make the girl try to reach out to the boy in some way...

The Sky audio description advert
Sky Audio description advert.
This advert is on telly at the moment and I think it's a really nice use of typography and animation. I love the way the words and names of objects form the images. I particularly like the "whispers of smoke" coming out of the chimney. I love the way the words take on the characteristics of what they are for. It's a really beautiful use of computer animation.

Pixilation
Our class was set a pixilation project, that was to create a pixilation based on either 'Predator and Prey', 'Parent and Child' or 'Host and Parasite' relationships.
I chose to do a predator and prey style relationship and set about storyboarding a situation where my flatmate was attacking my friend Alex, from my course.
I chose to do a predator and prey style relationship and set about storyboarding a situation where my flatmate was attacking my friend Alex, from my course.
The story goes: Alex is cooking in the kitchen when she hears a knock at the door. She goes to open the door and Adele is standing there looking furious. (We don't know why she is so angry but I'm sure she has a valid reason! perhaps Alex forgot about something important, or maybe Adele and Alex just really don't get on.) Adele then chases Alex around the kitchen and the living room before catching her, pushing her to the floor and dragging her out of the room.
The actual pixilation wasn't that hard to do, and it didn't take too long, but I re-shot it a couple of times to work out camera angles to get the approach I wanted. I think the hardest part of the pixilation process was actually just getting the people to be free to help out.. it's surprisingly hard to get students to stop doing their own work for an hour or so when a deadline is close...
Overall I'm quite happy with the final animation, although I would like to add some sound in if I had time, as you have to interpret that Alex has heard the door.
