Wizard of OZ

Term 2


Creating a small Animation based on a traditional story I chose the Wizard of OZ from where I had to create any 2 scene's and create a transition between the two scenes.

To start of Using Illustrator I created the two scenes on separate pages, using type and Illustration. I created each element on a separate layer as this allowed me to animate them separately in Adobe After effects. 

Using different shades of green and yellow with the pen-tool I drew out the Emerald City. For the yellow brick road I used the curve pen-tool drew a curvy line to which Increased the size of the brush and changed the brush style to create that effect which I really liked. 

I used the exact same style as the previous scene with the same typography so they fit together nicely with the transition.

I then Exported them into After effects where I worked on a individual scene first.

I feel I can improve on this small experimentation and create something better with more movements and much more complex scenes.

3D Typography

Term 2

The task was to create typography using 3D related objects to give the type life and depth. I started by using my material to create words relating to it. 


Using actual nuts to create a pun pickup line I also used bit of type and kept the word nuts in using actual nuts. 


To experiment with style and font using nuts I did another recreation.

Sticking to food I then used left over crumbs on a tray and and tissue to create the food court hungry atmosphere within the imagery. I used a mixed of different food materials o create this from pizza crumbs to chip crumbs to ketchup. I also left a few stains on the tissue itself to show it's been used adding effect to the crumbs.


Another experimentation I also did with food, I used fries to makeup the word fried as a means of irony again on a oily, greasy tissue forefeet and impact. 


I used another cheesy line to create this type where I used a actual skipping rope to spell out the word skip. I used clear tape to stick down the rope to form the lettering. As the rope wasn't big snout to fit the whole sentence in and I only had one rope available I then used tags for the rest of the sentence. 'My heart Skips a beat'.

Cereal Proto-type

Term 2

Once I completed my design on Illustrator and I was happy with the colour and composition I printed the net out and stuck it together to form my cereal box proto-type. 






Really pleased with the final outcome, I love how the whole design came to one final piece which came together very well If i was to develop this further I'd include the name of the cereal on the top and print out a collection of these as experiments just to see how they visually look.

Rotoscoping


As I had missed this session as a small experimentation and guide through using the horoscope brush and technique I followed a youtube tutorial which talked me through the process step by step



I followed this tutorial using a clip of my own. However I ain't to pleased with this experiment as it is not to the beast of my work. This therefore requires me to do more work and create a rotoscope image to the standards. This experiment was just to become familiar with the technique and to be able to learn hot to use the brush tool.
