On Wednesday out tutor set us a one day animation challenge. We were put in groups of two to four and had to pick one word from a list of which we would like to create an animation with. Our group chose the word Flavour 76. The other words from the list were Le Monde, NYC, and The Departure.
09.30 -10.00 Introduction
10.00 - 10.30 Group Brainstorming
10.30 - 11.15 Group Presentation (5 mins each)
11.30 - 15.30 Gather / Design / Animate
15.30 - 16.30 Final Presentations (5 mins each)
Here is a List of words from my brainstorm which reminded me of the word Flavour 76:
- Nightclub
- Sweets
- Year 1976
- Neon
- Colourful
- Pop-culture
- Rollerblades
- Disco
- Disco ball
- Flowers
- Hippies
- Drugs
- Tie-dye
- Funky
- Idols
- Clothes Brand
- Laser Lights
- Music from the Seventies or from around that time
- Popular
- Flower Power
- Afros
- Lipstick
- Flared Pants
In the end, the atmosphere which we were trying to create in the animation was something like a Flower Power Disco. We imagined a Nightclub in today's world called Flavour 76 which only plays /70's music. Overall the one day challenge was very broad so we could do whatever we wanted with the chosen word and the animation. The only thing we had to consider was not to rely on the digital animation but do hands on work and only use the computer for the editing at the end.
My job was to collect real flowers and make cut out flowers for the animation. I also did some editing and looked for a suitable soundtrack.
