Collide Animation

For the main chunk the animation I took images of each step on how to make a chatterbox which I animated in adobe photoshop as I layered them in order onto of each other. I then transferred this file in to Adobe after effects. 


The two marbled backgrounds I used for the background for both the title page and the end credits which I faded the opacity down in Adobe after effects and added text on top which I animated. Adding a zoom animation to these backgrounds in after effects. I used the marbling to link with the chatterbox designs to show that they are part of the same project. 






Screen captures of the process I went through to make my final animation. I started of by creating a transition of the step by step image I took. I did this by using the opacity so fading in n out the opacity of each layer. I rendered this out as a Quicktime movie. I then did on a new composition the front title of my movie using my marbling I did changing the hue in Photoshop then importing the file into after effects. I added a effect to this so this could animate with the text adding a typewriting effect tot hat to keep it short and simple and rendered this out also. For the end credits I then did the same  ad the title page using the same font and same background. However I added another coloured version of the background on Photoshop so I could animate bot backgrounds for more effect. I used the scale effect where I scaled one in and out using the opacity tool where I both backgrounds could be visible. To finish of I added the typewriter effect to the text and rendered this out. To complete and put the whole animation together I opened a new composition where I imported all 3 rendered Quicktime movies and placed them underneath and after one another to create a continuous animation. To finish off i downloaded a copyright free soundtrack and added this to my animation for a finished piece and then rendered the animation out. 


Final animation rendered which I uploaded onto youtube. To develop this further I need to add some sort of a soundtrack to the back to add life to the piece.
