White board animation

The white board animation we watched was created by Kristofer storm, the name was of the animation was Minilogue and was made with still images that were created on the whiteboard and live action that also took place on the white board it also had metamorphosis in it. The still images were drawn 2d graphics on the whiteboard so therefore the animation techique was 2d graphics animation.

The media which was used was the whiteboard. The fact the whiteboard was used gave the animation a surreal and dream like effect.

The style of the animation was that of a postive tone and it was very upbeat and happy, it also flowed very well. The look of the animation was also very postive, happy and upbeat and the pictures flowed well. The music that was also introduced to the animation was that of a positive and upbeat tone.

The effect the animation was trying to achieve was surrealism and to make it dream like and they done that very well. My own interpretation of the animation was it was also trying to get the point across of how we should love one another and how sometimes all we need to feel is love, as well as that I also believe it tried to show that we should be kind to one another and be hapy.

I very much liked this animation because of the happy, postive and upbeat tone it was giving out and I also liked how creative and imagiative it was.

It was similar to the other animations in the way it was surreal and stood out but as the other animations which were surreal done it in negative ways and tried to show the bad side to people, this one does has a postive tone and tries to show postive emotions such as love. It was also different in the way used live action and must other whiteboard animations are not as long.



Strom also has done animations for adverts, such as this picture


You can't see the picture that well but it is a advert for The carphone warehouse, it was shown when x factor was on advertising new phones through animations.

The websites I used for this information were www.wikipedia.org and www.youtube.com
