These are the final installments for the first part of the brief.
To be fair, I was quite impressed with myself after doing these animations. Especially since I was new to the software, and it normally takes me a while to warm to a piece of software.
In some respects, I think that I could of done alot more in terms of developing the animations, say if I had spent more time experimenting and testing the limits of After Effects instead of relying heavily on effects.
On reflection, they do look a tad unnecessary and detract away from the nature of the word, and as I said, relies on the effect to give it a literal meaning.
Feedback from the storyboards had been good though, but by having too much confidence in what I had produced without a variety of responses to the word restricted the outcome for this brief.
In spite of the last few words on the final animations, I do think I have communicated the word 'pop'.
Formative Feedback Summary
ReplyDeleteYour subject matter for your season of films is engaging as it it a genre that caters for a niche and which you seem to have a real passion for. In terms of you contextual understanding and research you showed a strong understanding of the genre and the five films you selected were specific and supported well with your understanding of the audience as well as bringing your own personal touch.
In terms of your design development your understanding of typefaces, use of straplines, timing and humour was good and considered. From here i think it is important to consider or maybe what you plan to do next is what these idents will actually look like whether you use key scenes from the films (actual imagery stills), quotations and moving text or vector imagery. Producing samples will engage your development to which you can move forward from.
