To be honest at first I didn't really get how we would collate all the material we got into creating a final outcome. I was bit confused as to how it was going to look and how we would split up the different roles between us. One member of the group decided to animate the person walking and the other two (me included) set out to produce the background imagery for the moving image. I was a bit stressed out at the beginning of the week as I wasn't totally sure on what I was meant to be doing. We probably should have organised the jobs a bit better, making everyone clear on what they were supposed to be doing to progress the project. However as the days went on and I looked through the footage, the ideas started to develop and I felt we began to work much better as a group.
We split the film up into three sections: the person walking through the city, then a more suburban environment, into the park. I was in charge of producing the backgrounds for the more nature filled environments and began by painting a woodland image.
I put this together with one of the video footages we took and experimented with how I might animate this still image, syncing the movement with the sounds in the video. This was the end result:
I also wanted to work with drawing on top of a video layer and thought of making a leaf look like it was growing over my previous video of the leaves rustling in the wind.
I was quite please with the outcome of this as I thought the gradual growing of the leaves and the boiling affect that I made them have seemed to match the sirens in the background.
