Planning Practical Issues

For this animation, we thought it would be best to keep it very simple. This is because if it is simple, it will be easy to make as well as look good.  As we couldn't think of a really good idea, we decided to try and advertise the Arts Award in a funny kind of maner.
We are thinking of the idea of having a small blob crossing the road. While Crossing he gets hit by a vehicle. His Squashed body on the floor then spells, "Arts Award". The real Arts Award logo will then fade into view.

The Software I am going to need to use below.

• Adobe Photoshop - Photoshop is a sophisticated programme which is used to edit photos and images. I am going to use this to edit some of the background images and the road that could be used in the animation.    

• IStopMotion 3 - IStopMotion 3 is a decent piece of Software which is used to make short films using the 'Stop-Motion' technique. Stop-Motion is a way of creating films by taking many pictures. You combine these photos together and play them back and you will be watching a movie.    

• Adobe Premier - Adobe Premier is a Very Sophisticated Video editing programme. We will use this for adding a title to the video and to add in sound effects.
