Feedback

Suggestions: My classmates have said that I could use a union jack colours or flag in my animation. The group said that they liked my idea however, they find that my idea is a bit too much for a short clip. They have said that I need to further consider the music and dialogue. Jelyseen suggested to me that I should look at Paddington Bear film or even the trailer because it's centered around London, She also suggested that I should watch a short clip from the children's television programme Brum.


Treatment and pitch

Task 2- Treatment and pitch

Materials/characters/set
Hopefully, for my animation I will be using Plasticine to make the London eye, a black taxi cab and a red bus and telephone box, other materials I will be using is a cardboard box to create the set some paper that I will use to draw a sky with clouds and some famous London buildings. I'm going to have only one character in my stop motion animation, his name is Ralph and he's on a tour of London. Other material I will need is paper to make some drawing, this will be a part of the background for my animation.

Scene 1
In this scene, Ralph will be in a taxi cab where he will get off it, then the taxi cab will drive away. He will be seen looking and walking around. Then he will come across the Big Ben, however, moments after it begins to rain. He is very upset because he hasn't spent much time in London, and tries to shield himself with his briefcase. Then the taxi cab appears and he goes inside.

Target audience
The target audience for my short stop motion animation film is teenagers. Teenagers are my target audience because it's shown that teenagers are a fan animation films too, this proves that animation isn't just for children.

Where it will be shown
My animation video will most likely be shown on YouTube. If it was to be shown on a television channel, then it would shown on Disney channel, Nickelodeon and CBBC.

Music and sound/ Graphics
I will be using sound effects for my stop motion animation such as bus noises and other various sound effects. One of the sound effects I need to get is the sound of rain. Graphics will be rain drops.

Length of video
The length of my short animation piece will last for around 50 to 60 seconds because I want to entertain my audience without boring them.

Colour/theme/style
The colours that I will be using are, red, black grey, blue and orange. I will use black plasticine to make the taxi cab and green and brown to make the trees and grass.

Comedy show



This task consisted of us creating a short animation piece based on sound effects that we found on Soundtrack pro. We came up the concept of having a stand up comedian tell the audience a joke to and then have him go off stage. At the end of the clip, we added two sound effects which was an applause and laughter. We also had Usama tell a joke.
