For this course assignment, I learned about motion design, and animations. I’ve created different pieces, but made a full animation project from start to export. It was really fun and challenging at the same time.
The motion design piece starts with developing a concept, sketching, creating illustrations, expanding my storyboard, illusrate the rest of the project, and in the end animate the project in after effects, and render it. I postet all my animations for this course on youtube.
Here are my three test projects to get startet. These I did only to get to know after effects, and try out simple and some complicated effects.
I used a website and app called Milanote.com to create kind of a moodboard for the animation. I also added the drawings, sketches, and storyboard in there. You can take a look at my milanote by clicking here.
And in the end I choose to work with the owl-concept.
This is the storyboard I created. I created the illustrations, added motion to them, and music/sound effects from epidemic sound.
I created three different concepts:
”Flourishing in Spring”:
Personifies the arrival of spring. The woman feels cold, dull and messy. When she suddently sees a flower, she feels that spring vibe and transform into something vibrant. She’s got her glow up, when she trips over a patch of leftover ice. Turnes out spring isn’t that gracefully afterall.
”I don’t owl you anything”:
A careless owl on a stick in the moonlight, when someone says ”Don’t you own me something” the owl reacts by rolling it’s eyes, lifts it’s feather, having a sassy attitude when flying away, saying ”I don’t OWL you anything, leaving a couple of flowating feathers behind.
”Too soon for spring?”:
A flower is optimistically sprouting from the snow, thinking spring has arrived when the sun is shining, only to brutally be reminded that it’s still January when a shoe stomps it down, and it starts snowing again.
