DSDN 101 - Final clip

Final clip


Final stop motion that has been created. Took along time trying to get the camera angles and lighting right.

Incase the video does not work through blogger here is a link to it uploaded on my youtube.

DSDN 101 - Design standpoint

Design standpoint

My design standpoint on media design is about bringing ideas to life and having nothing to stop them from doing so. There is a wide range of Medias out there to help ideas flourish and bring them into reality. Pencils, paints, markers, etc. Are all parts of everyday use but programs such as Photoshop, flash, illustrator, cinema 4d, after effects, and many more are all out there to be used for mans use for creativity, to really bring ideas to life using a range of media.

I tried showing the process of an idea transitioning between different medias, as the creator has an idea making his attempt of bringing it to life.  The idea is able to be drawn with it beginning to come alive as it walks off the page and becomes a 3d form then walking into the computer screen.

The images below show the process an idea the creator has gone through with first drawing the idea then beginning to bring it to life by digitally designing it on the computer with a range of colours and almost bringing it into the world. The final image is of the idea the creator has expanded on processing through different elements of media to have an end result of the character being brought to life in a 3d game.  
With the developing software over the years to come the ideas that creators are able to think up are only going to develop being able to display what has been created in using different medias giving their end result as if it part of the real world.

Here is a quote showing that you can doing anything you like with an idea, there are no boundaries or limits. "Art is the only place you can do what you like. That's freedom." - Paula Rego.

DSDN 101 - Storyboard

Storyboard

Final storyboard images have been all hand drawn and displayed in different medias to show my process of bringing an idea to life.

Brainstorm individual research


For my mind map/brainstorm here i displayed different medias showing that they can be combined to display ideas to bring them to life.

DSDN 101 - Process sound

Stop motion music

After looking through different sound clips i have decided that the '8 bit enough to happiness was' was best suited for my stop motion.

DSDN 101 - Process Colour correction

Colour adjustments

Found a way to use the flicking animation scene in the stop motion video by sorting frames out and colour balancing scenes to get the lighting to match as best as possible.


Lists of colour adjustment effects.

DSDN 101 - process Sound ideas

Sound ideas

Here are some possible sound ideas for my stop motion taken from http://www.jamendo.com


I had in mind of theme music from films also but the copyright has to be taken in account for.

DSDN 101 - Process Stop motion


Decided to render stop motion in scenes on Adobe After Effects  and then piece them all together in Sony Vegas to have the one film. Rendering the whole clip on AE can cause it to crash as files are big and the output render file will be massive.


Scenes being pieced together in Vegas. 

DSDN 101 - Process stop motion

Having trouble with the flicking animation, may have to be taken out as camera positioning and lighting is effecting it too much.

DSDN 101 - Rendering process


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwwpCOprY4A&feature=youtu.be

Link to my segment of my stop motion video where the frame rate and the layer sequences are explored with. The first attempt ended up being 36 seconds and was way to slow. The second turned out to be around 18 seconds and further reduced it to be 7 seconds. This may very depending on how long the rest of the stop motion is.

DSDN 101 - Stop motion experiment

Stop motion experiment



Video of experimenting with stop motion. It was created with each picture of the lego man having a different movement on Photoshop. A screen shot was taken for each movement then sequenced in Adobe after effects and rendered as a video.
