Over this week I have been working on various things, including a poster, as well as some animation for our submission.

Posters:

I created these posters as part of our submissions, as I believe that they could be used as a secondary advertisement. These drawings are part of the animation that I have created.

Animated scene:




This is one of the final animation examples that would be shown in the animated advert.

Social media ad example:


For this video, I photo shopped a tweet to look like Burger King's official twitter account to show what it would look like to post an add of this design. I then composited my animation onto the photo shopped image.



What went well:

- Good use of colours.
- Good timing on animation
- Good backgrounds and compositing.

What to improve:

- Consistent line art.
- Focus on creating more in-between frames.

At the beginning I created a list of various things that we would need to consider when making our collective:




Then I began researching what I needed to look at:





After researching this, we have split up the different roles we will be taking when creating the presentation, which can be seen below:
