We began as usual with a recap in the
basement over a cuppa and discussed the progress of the project so far with
several interesting new ideas emerging.
Rozi showed an animated composit example
using one of John’s landscape drawings, and a drawing of a swan by Philip. We
were all pretty impressed with this – not least John & Philip – as it
completely transformed their individual artwork into a simple animation of
Philip’s swan moving slowly along the river in John’s landscape. For those who
wanted, Rozi offered the opportunity to see how to create the animated composit
in the computer. She also guided participants through how to prepare the photo
in Photoshop, and how to import into After–Effects and complete the work as
seen in the example.
Another aspect discussed was recording a
voice–over to add to an animation such as Karen’s in which she had written a
story for her plasticine characters.
Participants then chose between learning more
about the animated composit process or continuing work on their stories,
drawings or plasticine models.
