The Escape of the Vegetables.

Today i made a small animation about a group of vegetables that had a plan. Their plan was to escape the wrath of the plate.
Here is the video:


It is unfinished as we ran out of time. I was wanting to add something at the end like someone picking up a fork and stabbing the carrot. We also didn't have the time to add any sound or an opening title. It would have been much better had we finished. I was hoping to make a funny-horror of the carrot's death while escaping the plate.


 
I enjoy animations and have a great interest in this form of media and always have.  
It would be good to do this more often and get more practice.

Digital Imaging

The Arts Award was worked on by me and another class mate. We chose the movie to use on the poster; And we decided which filters and colours we should use and which would look best and give a certain effect for the poster. In the write up i wrote paragraphs 4 and 5 as that was the main part of my work in the group. 
Overall, i think we both feel that the poster looks good. We feel the effects work well and give it more of a rustic look about it. It's a good combination of colours and we feel it looks good. It was made in a quicker time than you might think. James came up with the basis of the poster, while we both discussed how it would look together and if it did look a bit off, we would ask ourselves how we could change it to give it more of a 'smooth' look. We wanted to make sure that colours would work together well so we had to make sure it had a smooth transition between colours, instead of just two different colours placed together. That is why we used a 'musty' looking filter.  
Overall, it's a good poster and it looks good. I feel it fits the film well and has a dramatic look about it. If i would change anything, it would be the colour transition between the two main pictures in the background, but it's not really a problem.
