Questionnaire

Final animation

Here is my link to my final animation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrGdtJBHrPM

Evaluation

From the feedback i received there were a common comment which was that the hand shots from Abigail's arm were still in the animation at final outcome by changing this i would have deleted the shots and re taken the images to remove this issue. The viewer seemed to enjoy the animation and was impressed with the overall animation. The overall review of my animation was very positive feedbacks which i was impressed with there was just a few faults which i would have liked to change and made the animation better.

From the questionnaire feedback i have had a few complaints about the hand shots in the imagery by solving this solution i would remove the imagery shots and replce them with the shots without the arms. I got a few answers saying that the animation could have been a bit longer without maybe few more action/battle scenes which i would have agreed on but with me not being here some weeks. The animation could have been a lot longer than it was. If the camera would have been a lot quicker with the shots we could have achieved a lot more shots and a lot more scenes in the animation.

Overall I'm pleased with the animation i would have liked to have added a lot more images to the animation to make the final animation longer.

Stop Frame Animation

i can not find the inventor of the Stop motin but a pioneer would be Ray Harryhausen, his natinality is USA, Hollywood. The first stop motion animation technique can be credited to  Albert E. Smith and J. Stuart Blackton for The Humpty Dumpty Circus (1897).

My Storyboard

The timeline provides what will happen in the animation and which camera angles and shots were taken during the process. Some of the shots have been changed in the process to make the animation longer most of the angles are the same but might have been used more and the sound effect were added after the timeline was produced these include: gun shots, explosions, the sound of tumbleweed rolling along the screen, the sound of the theme tune and the final scene which is a victory cheer also a sound of a cricket in the awkward stare down scene.

Character & Environment

Colin the Cowboy
Eugine the Terminator thing

These characters were inspired by woody the cowboy from Toy Story we have made a few changes to this character which isn't copy right.

Desert Background.This is to fit with the animation and we wanted to have a desert instead of any other background scenery.

The different facial expressions.The facial expressions are so it was more managble to change the faces instead of making loads more characters with different faces.
