Evaluation of todays lesson

In todays lesson at coleridge I continued with my animation in the scratch-book. As we couldn't use the photocopier at coleridge, me and Liam went back to long road and used it there. We got 20 photocopies but in the end we decided not to use them because we can use the one original tight rope and use it as a background for the whole animation after the tight rope has built up. We have finished all of the drawings for the animation so all we need to do now is take photos of them and edit it on final cut which I am going to do tomorrow as Liam is away. Me and Liam thought it would be a good idea to take repeats of the same picture to put in our animation to save time, so in some parts there will be loops of certain frames. In some of the frames which we have done, there is only the man, because we are going to put in a background when we are editing.

Here are some pictures of the animation so far:

As you can see in this picture there is no tight rope, but when we edit the background into the frame, then he will be standing on a platform on the tight rope.


In this shot he will be half way across the tight rope which we will edit on a different layer.

As you can see in this frame the person is falling off the unicycle and his face is flat at the front. When we have editied it, he will be falling off the tight rope aswell, and also a pigeon will be flying in his face, which is why his face is flat.
This is the pigeon which will be flying in the mans face. Me and Liam have decided that we are going to use this shot repeatedly as a loop, for the pigeon.


At the moment we are still looking for music which we could use for our animation. The type which we are searching for has to be funny, but catchy. We also have to have sound effects, like when the man is falling off the platform when he makes it to the other side, we need to have the classic cartoon sound for when people are falling and hit the ground.
