Briefing

After the briefing I have decided to take on the task of of creating titles for a book that hasn't already been made into a film. I feel really inspired by this project because I already have a few ideas for books such as Trudi Canavan's Magician's Guild or Angela Carter's Collection of fairy tales. I'm thinking though that it might be best to go look at short children's stories. I really want to layer different kinds of animation, combine stop motion, handrawn and 2d computer animation in a layering technique like a more professional version of The Musketeers opening credits for the new BBC TV show.

I think this brief is more suited for me because I work best when I focus on one project so that immediately made ident's not appeal to me, and I prefer working with narratives and fantasy stories and I think if I was to look at Amnesty or Childline I just wouldn't get as into the project. There's a lot of freedom with choosing any book so I'm really excited to go to Waterstones tonight.
