Hands Pixilation

Finished my solo pixilation project today. Here it is...



I am very pleased with the outcome. I used a tripod in order to improve on the camera shakiness that caused a problem with the first pixilation piece. I found the idea of paper and writing to be very effective in the group piece, so i have concentrated wholly on this. I think the music in this piece compliments the animation nicely.

One problem i encountered was the bad lighting, however i have done my best to improve through the editing of the photos.

Paper Pixilation

Here is my completed pixilation piece, done as a group, which i completed today by editing it and adding music. . .



I am very pleased with the overall outcome of the video. I think the music (Good Shoes - Nazanin) works very well and compliments the piece. I added a black and white, film grained effect on Photoshop that gives it a unique and somewhat old fashioned feel, however the animation itself gives it a modern twist.

To improve the piece, a tripod should have been used to hold the camera still as it is very shaky in parts. Also, there are parts where more pictures should have been taken as it seems all too quick and can get quite confusing as to what is happening. I will reflect on this when doing my solo pixilation project.

One Shot Take 2

After reflecting on our first One Shot film, we decided as a group it would be best to redo it due to a very long and boring narrative, and bad lighting. Although filming it in a lift gave it some originality, it did bring up these problems. So we got together as a group today and decided to do it again, with a completely different storyline.

Here is the outcome...



I am reasonbly more pleased with this, however i feel with more time and knowledge it could have been edited to a higher standard, but compared to our first piece i think this one is much better.
