Collaboration project : My second animation pass 

Overall i feel very happy with this outcome, i feel confident to move forward with editing and transitions.where the blank ending occurs 

 although the animation was a lot smoother , i listened and reflected my aims of feedback towards this. The animation of the flowers were smoother and drawing less attention away from the butterfly.using a fine metal pointer to move it at  millimetres , simple touch movements to make it agile. the caccon begins a little before the change. 

I added the additional flight sequence where the butterfly will track out of the body of my partners beginning sequence. this worked very well and shows clear elegant flight movement of butterflies. 

There is still some speed to it ,however its more clearer for what is going on in the sequence to catch the message 

Next aims 

Get anymore feedback 

Editing the green screen

This where I have lay out the similar design from the first pass I produced last week but I have couple of changes by rescaling the lungs and butterflies to an A3 , as I thought to do but was advised by feedback and I’m very happy that it has turn out a lot better and in a good set up of size and position.

Lay out of my cut outs

This page is showing all my recent cut outs most all printed out.

printing A4 and A3 Scans of my assets and layers,to begin tests on my composition and animation movements

The backgrounds were A3 and sure was a good size to capture details and smooth compositions, The assets were in A4 , all show good detail and easy cut out . However, I’m still in the balance of making it A3 to scale it but if this change is required from the feedback.

This is the original lay out from my animatic , I need to include the background of my partners animation to complete the transition and layout.

I tweaked the layout with additional assets and colours to make more surrealism and cohesive style. The flowers have moved into my final animation lay out.

Things I have change:

 The colour pallet a bit from white to a blue background and removing the red lining, keeping to the ideal of the art directors style. 

went back to the skin texture layer which will form around the next animatic, create a more human appeal and help link back to the previous new animatic .

Style frame of Transition: 

This is the style frame from my partners animatic, The transition we have chosen, will include a zoom out from mine as the butterflies fly out of the body from close up to a long shot , representing freedom , respiration and release.

The transition before from Frankie's to Mine we have chosen to create a pan down from head , neck and to the lungs. 

The pallet is very cohesive through out.  

Style frame of transition 

From the frame before i have positioned and adjusted the scale to fit into the chest opening and making flow of the human anatomy. 

Second animatic edit

there are few changes and tweaks through out each other animatic as everyone has completed an animatic in the cohesive style of paper cut out, and other have updated their animatic with new ideas. 

the studies was where is search and captured various plants , butterflies,flowers  and spring time moments. roughly sketch some ideas of the lay out and the direction of light will hit and where the focus of the message expressed

continuing from these studies, is where a create digital style designs on photoshop , forming out the transformations of the butterfly and using paintbrushes and images to fullfill a mood. 

I also have been looking into videos of butterfly transformations , when is comes to creating the animations , i can show my skills of observation of movements, to create a real life experience.
