I am back at the end of first week after the winter break.
So what did I do during this fasinating winter?
Not much, actually. I had to change most of my designs becasue I got some serious feedback during the previous interim. I wrote a quick note after the interim:
Well it`s no big deal afterall. All I need is just delete what I did for the last three month and start over.
And then the third interim is coming and I need to assemble a video that`s promising enough to let people know i didn`t just sleep over the whole winter.
And I GOT NOTHING.
Well not exactly nothing but some scraps and trash I did. Still, I need to have a script of what the hell I `m going to say during the meeting so, here it is:
It is quite clear that this time we have two part of the video, each part is talking about one topic, which is: Define intersectional Discrinimation and Share the importance of allyship.
Which eventually talks about one thing:
and that is the topic of the whole animation:
So if you still remeber what I gave you guys last time, you will notice some major changes.
I wrote a quick note after the second interim which records the feedbacks i received. To fulfill most of them I have to change basically everything. So you could say I made a whole new animation between the second and third interim.
The point of this animation is to make a difference between worlds with and without allyship.
I actually did a lot version of this background. But the whole point of this is to break down the wall, to show the vast sky and open ground, to make a feeling of you can breathe freely and there is no bond or restriction, you can really feel that you can do everything.
And to make more connection with guildhall, I actually took reference from your riverbank building and put it in the background.
It`s not really obvious but I hope you can get the point, Still pls don`t think these two as the actual sketch of your school, but a spirtual image of the school`s impression.
I understand you guys may expect to see a more complete-stage animation at the final interim, but as I said before I have to restart over to meet the topics. and for animation part I work alone so there`s not much time for me to show you guys what this would be like when it`s nearly down.
Most of you probably have noticed that the music itself is also work in prgress. I actually edited the music myself with the excellent tracks provided by my guildhall coworker. I asked him to make a new one but as you know we had a voice record last week and to fit with the sound and graphic, my coworker just doesn`t have time to give me the track before today.
And for this project I have made 6 major changes so far and each time I had to redraw a lot of frames. it takes time but I assure to you this will be better and I will make this to a better stage before the final deadline.
So pls give us time, and we can make it better. That is all I have for you today. Thanks.
