How it can be achieved:
An animation
is a group of photographs that are arranged one after another to make the
pictures move, although they can be made in different ways there are three main
steps you should take if you want to achieve an animation similar to what I
have done. I used iMovie to edit my animation, however there are other software
and websites available to do this.
An animation
generally tells a story, or shows a process as it moves through the stages.
Because of this, you want to photograph movement. It can be very simple, and
range from activities such as sports, walks, cooking and an ordinary
conversation. You will need to figure out what you wish to achieve from the
shooting process at this point, by creating a storyboard that your shoot will
follow so that you have planned it properly.
The next
stage after that is to shoot your photos. There is no set amount to shoot, it
all depends on the quality of work you want to produce and what the story
behind the shots is. You will progress through your story leaving a possible
few seconds between taking the new picture will also depends on how quickly
your subject will be moving.
The last
stage is editing, this is where you will use a form of software to put these
images together to form a story. You may need to cut down a large amount of
clips, and spend time searching for some ‘good’ footage. You can also add music
and text to your presentation by simply following the guidelines in your
software and downloading music from the internet or copying from your personal
files.
