TASK 2.

Proposal

I teamed up with my friend Te Li Wen to work on this project.
We discussed and prepared a proposal.


After consulting, we decided to go with "Flower Knows", the cosmetic brand. Specifically the Swan Ballet Series, Eye Shadow Palettes.

The audio we chose was Swan Lake/Tchaikovsky [Music Box] because it was the song of the ballet performance that inspired the cosmetic series. We went with 1:04 - 1:19 of the music.

Week 6 Progress

Storyboard A:

Storyboard B:


We had similar ideas but different ideas of execution, so we decided to make 1 storyboard each then see which works better or if we should merge the ideas.


Week 7 Progress

Li Wen was in charge of illustrating elements for the close up scenes showcasing the makeup while I was in charge of the silhouette of the ballerinas and other elements needed for the channel bumper.


After completing all the elements needed, we made a digitalized storyboard to clearer visualize the final product.



Week 8-9 Progress

After everything is ready, we proceed to animation in after effects. This time I animated Li Wen's Illustration while she animates mine. We utilized many tools, especially the puppet tool we learned in video sound production.


Finally, I compiled all the pre-composition into one final composition. Completing the final. Li Wen then did all the finishing touches by cleaning up and adding special effects.

FEEDBACK

Week 6

Mr. Fauzi recommended us to go with the cosmetic brand "Flower Knows" as we have more things to animate with that.

Week 7

Mr.Fauzi suggested we do storyboard 1 as it has more elements to play with.

Week 9
We were told to give the feeling of authenticity by adding more focus on the makeup. 


REFLECTION

Week 6-9

I really enjoy creating animations so this one was extremely enjoyable. It was also my first time working with someone else on the same animation. One thing fustrating was being unable to find certain tools in after effects as were not used to it yet But overall, it was a fun project and I look forward to the following project.
