My Final Evaluation

I have learn't many new things about animation I had learn't about the different forms of animation e.g. claymation, paper cut-out I had heard of them but from researching and experimenting with the I got a better understanding of them and how to construct those animations into ideas, we also learn't how to use a green screen as me and the team had never used one before with some help we in editing we were able to have the background function successfully.

Dystopia itself was a new topic I hadn't heard up I found out it was the antonym to utopia from researching on it.It was a new experience along with learning how to improvise with ideas that either didn't work or the material wasn't capable of doing it.

From learning this new skills we tried in a way to combine two combinations of both Plasticine stop-motion with Paper cut-out animation and incorporate them into our final short dystopian film this worked rather well very much influenced by the Monty Python introduction and our experimentation with that particular animation which we got the hang of quickly, The green screen editing we learn't was influenced by a particular music video by the band coral introduced to me and the team by a teacher we liked the colour in that video and the movement this really helped us with the designing and the ideas for our final film.

I tried to develop my Ideas by going onto YouTube and looking at different film trailers revealing to me the different types of dystopia there are showing to me that not all dystopia themes were founded upon uprisings and the Government brainwashing the public but that in some cases dystopia can be shown through opposite in situations. where crimes are at an all time high and that the government need to take control or in areas where either the government doesn't exist and they allow anarchy with torture to be given free pass for one day every year.

Mainly all of the of  the animators we researched on had different effects on how we produced our final video. At first it was Aardman studios had their influence on us simply because me and the team knew them rather well for creating Chicken Run and the Wallace & Gromit franchise so they did at first get our attention then we moved onto music video animators like the ones who created Gorrillaz music video along with Gotye's.

I plan to use my knowledge for next time by planning ahead considering our difficulties with the use of different materials if we did it again I believe we would pursue more materials and experiment even more. And in future work the new skills I have learn't in this project in it's making process I could be able to incorporate into my new ideas and through that expand even more on my skills.
