ANIMATION PRODUCTS RESEARCH

FILM - Finding Nemo  

May 30th 2003. Disney Pixar. Directors - Andrew Stanton and Lee Unkrich. Pixar have also made Up, Cars, Toy Story, Monsters inc and The Incredibles.
 Finding Nemo is computer generated. The target audience is to everyone, young children old adults even teenagers. The purpose of the animation is to entertain. I like Finding Nemo as it isn't just based for young children its aimed for everyone to watch and enjoy.


SHORT - Paperman 


2012. Paper man was created by Walt Disney and directed by John Kahrs. Walt Disney have also made Marry Poppins, Bambi, The jungle book and Peter pan. Paperman is a 3D hand-drawn computer animated. The target audience i think is for older couples, as it isn't really funny nor entertaining so younger children wouldn't really watch it. Purpose is to inform older couples of true love. 


TV SERIES - Spongebob 

1999. Stephen Hillenburg is the creator of spongebob. Spongebob is a hand drawn animation, the target audience for Sponge bob is young children, the humour is funny which would make young children laugh. The purpose is the entertain and tell the story. I like the humour in spongebob.


WEB SERIES - Asdf 

Asdf was created by a youtuber called Tom Ridgewell, he is a London illustrator. The first episode was created August the 10th 2008. ASDF is a 2D computer generated. His channel was created on May 30th 2006, and his account has over 114 million, and for approximately 58,146 views a day. Tom Ridgewell has also made GIFFS swell as series.

I like the fact it is easy, as the character are stick men and its black and white.




MUSIC - Gorillaz Clint Eastwood

 The song Clint Eastwood came out in March 2001 this was the first single from there album. The title of this song was named after a actor from 'the good, the bad and the ugly' due to the similarity in theme.  The song is a mix between electronica, dub, hip hop and rock.

The single has sold 480,000 copies in the UK according to that official charts company.

The John Lewis Christmas advert was found to be the most discussed socially for 2013, although its rival Sainsbury's had to most emotionally engaging Christmas advert, according to research by We Are Social.





Sapceship Gif


to create this gif i did the same thing with my video gif, i imported this file by clicking on import then 'video frames with layers'. This image was a still photo, i made the space ship look like its moving by on each frame moving it upwards a little bit. One the first layer all you can see is the number 3, then on the second layer you can see the 3 and the 2. As you go up each frame you will see more on the image. so final at the end when you press play all the layers will come up one by one. 


As you can see in this image i have put al the layers into a contact sheet, this shows each layer and the context on them.

Video Gif

VIDEO GIF - I created this gif in photoshop. firstly i downloaded a clip of youtube and imported this clip into photoshop. 

Before importing you have to make sure you click on the 'videos frames with layers' this separates the short clip into different layers. 


once your video is imported all you have to do is change the seconds per frame which is below the timeline.
