Finished Animation & Evaluation

All in all I am super pleased with the final result it's really grand. It's turned out a lot better than I imagined. I can't believe how much work we have got done in these past three weeks, I think there were time when me, Anna thought it might never end. During this project I feel like the fact that things take longer than you plan really hit home. I felt I spent a lot of time making to do lists and remaking them because everything took longer than I thought it would (except editing but I found a lot of shortcuts to make this faster.

The parts of this project I really enjoyed were designing the set, and working with Anna to make these items come alive. I also really really loved working with Becky and Elliot on their storyboards, even though the storyboards don't reflect the conversations we had, I feel like they were super productive conversations that really helped solidify their narratives and made them eager to start.

I think one of the hardest things I found was directing someone to do the voice acting. But I re-did it and overcame this. And the easiest made so much easier by the fact I had the creative task to do for Disney was the Editing, I whizzed through that like a whizzy queen.

I feel like I haven't looked at documentary animation as in depth as I could of done but instead I've been much more involved in actually doing rather than looking at other stuff. But at the same time, I think I have been so productive in my own practice, and this project is the one that I'm proudest of, of my uni course. I also think that the skills I've learnt in this module are going to help my extended practice so much. It's go me so hyped to start off my extended practice sooner because there's so much I want to do with the stop motion. Like building tracks in woodwork to roll through the sets and planning this in advance. ITS JUST SO EXCITING.
