Animation Poster

This is the A2 sized poster that I have made to advertise my animation.

Editing

The editing is almost complete, I have booked the sound studio to record a few extra sound effects this week which I will then add to the animation. 
The decision that I made to use more varied camera angles has worked well and improved the visual appeal of the animation. I also made sure to zoom in and out, focussing on backgrounds then the character, adding more depth.
Here is a little sneak preview of one of the frames....

Lighting and Animating

I focussed two lights either sides of the set and one spotlight facing upwards, bouncing light off the ceiling.

The animating is going well so far, I only have a small amount left to do before I move on to the editing.

Park Set Complete

I asked one of my second year assistants (Nicola) to get some red checkered material from a fabric shop in town, she managed to find exactly what I had asked for which was great.

I kept the two halves of the set separated so that they were easier to carry to the rig. Once I had positioned the set the way I wanted, I slotted the two halves back together, filling in any gaps with plasticine.

I bought a large piece of aeroply for the background, spray painted it white then lightly sprayed blue over the top to give a cloudy sky effect.
