My animation- Loves cruel victim.

For my animation I made a 2d stop motion animation. 2d stop motion is normally where you draw your animation using a foreground and a background. You then animate the f0reground and background using stop motion. Stop motion is where you take a photo, then in this case move a part of you foreground a little bit then take another photo. When you play this photos quickly they will then give the illusion of movement.

I created a foreground and a background by drawing it free hand. The foreground where parts of my character or my whole character. I had to have different foregrounds such as arms so I could move them and only them. The reason for me having different backgrounds where for the different scenes.

For the ideas for this animation I drew them from my own emotions at the time. At the time we where set to start are animation I had recently gone through a bad break up which I had took badly. After it was over I found myself question my place in the world and what my true purpose was ?

I believe I done quite well in my animation. I believe the guy in the story the one whose story it actually is, has a lot of personality. I also think my animation is a reasonable length even through I would of liked to make it longer but couldn't do to time restrictions. It runs ok as well but you can tell the difference between the weeks because the paper changes in the camera positions . This was due to the changing of the weeks. I couldn't do all the shot in one day, and so had to come back to it. When I did come back to it however I couldn't get the paper in the same position in relation to the camera. The other I did do through was to add music. I think this went very well and gives the animation extra depth and meaning.
