Project two – vignette
Today I was assigned my second project at the Noroff Institute, this time the subject is animation. I can choose between two different types; identity and vignette. I have already decided what I am going to make, a vignette – introduction to a news report to be exact.
After looking at several different videos of vignettes and identity animations – I have come to the conclusion that I want to create a vignette. I have looked at a lot of different videos to get inspiration to what I am going to create.
I got my inspiration from videos like:
also looked at several other news introductions to give me an idea of what I wanted to create.
Soundtrack
I also want to bring sound to the animation, making the whole introduction much more interesting to watch – and it gives the whole work a better feeling. After searching around for different sounds I found one that I think can work very well for my project; http://audiojungle.net/item/news/119712.
Timing the animation to the soundtrack might be challanging, but I hope that I will be able to do it, as it makes the whole introduction vignette a lot better.
Sketch
I have sketched up how the animation will look from the top, which will be the position of the camera during the countdown. I will make it as several objects with different height placement so that from the top, it looks like this, but when you view if from the side it looks a lot different.
The rest of the animation will take place from one of the sides, where you can see all the objects working together to create the countdown sequence from the top.
Planning
I have created a schedule to work from, so that I can manage my time better. And I will most likely do better at following the schedule with this project than I did with the last one – but there will be some adjustments along the way.
