Due Today: P2 3 Styleframes + Rough Storyboard

Illustrator to After Effects

For Today:

Focus for Critique: 

TOPIC: What is the theme you are using to communicate the principles.What is the overarching idea (thinking, logic, thread) for your design? Brainstorm with your group a 1–2+ ideas for each of the principles with your theme. (for example: If your theme is a game of pool, alignment could show the balls aligning together. If your theme is a designer's process of creating, alignment could show the final works pinned on the wall together in alignment.)

STYLEFRAMES: Which styleframe is most successful in communicating the visual style for your theme? Type, color, imagery, etc. Is there unity throughout? Color coding? Suggestions for improvement. 

MOTION: Brainstorm ideas for how the motion could communicate the theme. (for example: A nature theme might connect the motion to the movement of growing. A magic show theme could connect the motion to the forms appear or disappearing.)

Due Next Class (10.7): 

  • Revised, completed Storyboards and first 7-10s (rough development – start with title scene (principles of design in motion) and first 1–2 principles.)
  • Render before class and bring headphones.
