Location Bases Narrative
In a group we have been asked to tell a story with locations on the Google maps. We thought wed have a lot of fun and make up a crazy story, However we needed a starting point so we decided to sleep on ideas after Uni. Getting a taxi after uni was over with the group and the taxi driver tell us a story about these secret tunnels under the ground of Liverpool as soon as he said it BINGO. That was our starting point our story dated back to the Victorian times and we used all different locations to bring the story to life. I found this very enjoyable !
Stop Motion Animation
Our initial idea for the animation was a face that was gradually changing with make up then a body with different outfits on. We tried this idea and unfortunately it did not work out they way he had hoped it would. So now we have been panicked to create a new one which was simply drawings of the seasons and it shows a character adapting to the changes of the seasons. I feel it is a rushed production and could use a lot of work however we have ran out of time and have to submit it . Hopefully my future animations will be better .

Avid
Oh Avid you complicated scary feature of media!
Yes I’m scared of the Avid editing software, I found it quite difficult to understand and get the hang of. Today in class we had the workshop to learn the ins and outs of Avid, it was so difficult at the beginning however the more I played around with the software the better I understood. A useful aspect is the two screens used as it spreads out all the work and scenes so it can be broken up and it keeps all the work nice and tidy. Hopefully the next time I blog about Avid ill be buzzing over it
Fingers crossed!
