Goodbye.

Well here it is my final edited video for my FMP
Remember to go onto YouTube to watch the HD version. 

Evaluation

For this project the personal learning outcomes i had set myself were; to continue developing and improving my strengths as a 2D animator and also hopefully improve on my weaker aspects like lip syncing, so that i could produce a completed and professional piece of work.
So continuing on and using my strengths that i used in my specialist study 1, i will hope to develop them more and also improve on other areas revolved around the same practice.
Looking back at this project now there will always be things that you would changed some being bigger then others. Things that i greatly need to improve on is time management, i found myself short on time again on yet another project even tho i had personal problems stopping at some point this time it was no excuses that i couldn't get more done overall. I'm happy with certain areas of my piece mainly the first half of it i feel like i did a good job there, but the rest because i didn't complete it had to be pieced together and really lowered the quality of the film as a whole. Overall I'm not happy and feel i let myself down be not putting everything i had into this term, i still have a very long way to go before i even think about being able to up for the industry.

Project Influences

Influences for y characters, It was my first time watching princess and the frog these year and i always liked the way the character Dr. Facilier
 look and acted in it, i have always had the ideas for the way my character looked all that Dr. Facilier has done is make me believe its ok to have dramatically Skinny people with bigger heads and hands as long as it suits your style .

Link above is to a competition video entry, it was the same mouth's entry that i was going to entry my video in but i didn't finish in time, I'm showing this video here because it was the one that gave me the idea for making that pan across shot in mine.

Below inspiring and helping animation that i referred back to now and again, helping me with lip syncs and body language.

Scene 3's walk cycle test.

Scene 4 test

Audio Recordings

Audio above is the audio i used off of this website called '11 second club', original plan was to only use this audio because you wasn't aloud to edit  it for the competition which i was going to enter, but because i didn't enter it in the end i decided to at least add something else to it.

So because i wanted to set the theme of my animation in a restaurant i could at least add some extra audio and make it feel think your out in the public. So instead of just being lazy i went out with my camera and recorded my very own sounds. (audio above) this one is the best quality recording i made.

Final edited piece. After playing around with the sounds trying to make them believable i ended up with some like this (audio below), i lowered the sound of the extra recordings so that it didn't drown out the dialog and that it didn't sound like they where standing right in the kitchen. 

Scene 4, test 4

Inbetweens added to the female character, now i just need to interact the second character and have him react to the action and make this bit come to life more.
