Live Project- Pt5

Finally with all the Cut out, CGI, and drawn animation done as well as the Live action shots finished it was time to see if this would all actually work. I hadn't been able to do the sections in the order I needed to, to make sure everything would fit due to availability of both people and resources, so everything was based on estimations and rough calculations. ...I had also never used Adobe After Effects before- my final 'new thing' to try out.

I think overall it came out quite well- a bit of a patch work job, but considering it was a learning process, not bad. Of course if I had the chance to do it again, I would be able to do it much better, knowing the techniques a little better and knowing where I went wrong. But- Its like that with every thing.

Live Project.

Our last project for the end of last year was a 'live pitch' project. We were given the chance to pitch and produce what would be the opening title film for the And/ Or Kraszna-Krausz book awards. Awards for Focal Press' best photography and film book of the year. I used this as a chance to try everything and anything I hadn't tried before. As it was for the opening of an award ceremony, I wanted to tap into the excitement you feel when on your way to such an event. What could be happier than a dog in a hot air balloon on his way to a party?
