So, that being said, Storybord Pro and I will become friends this summer, not in the next week. Photoshop and I shall duke it out until then.<br />
<br />
I set out to focus on the couple things that were most bothering people with my Animatic last week<br />
1. Walk Cycle<br />
2. Lady<br />

Next week I'll tackle the last few things that have bothering ME with my Animatic, and then it'll be done. GASP! PLEASE watch my animatic on this past post, and let me know if there is anything that troubles YOU with it, so i can fix that too :DMonica Croninhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17768628487690173850noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2120579065349162759.post-91519088250007375482012-04-19T04:20:00.001-07:002012-04-19T04:22:20.076-07:00Project Duncan- Week 4OKAY here we go...<br />Basic animatic...DONE-ZO.

This is based on the World Wildlife Fund's articles about tigers in Sumatra losing their home to paper companies. Articles <a href="http://www.worldwildlife.org/who/media/press/2012/WWFPresitem26196.html">One</a> & <a href="http://www.worldwildlife.org/who/media/press/2010/WWFPresitem18899.html">Two</a> on the WWF website awoke my awareness, and lit a fire inside me to do a PSA about this.<br /><br />Here's what I have so far:<br />Main Character/ His Environment:<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXinj2CZmQ28xVk4F8VWzDSPf47L2CDgFQA2jiDvktH2uwfKvu9Gu4e_mv7kpczBDjSd5t3CDbDRji_fetS7Z4dbkb8nGs3HlJAfc_Zrch4hVhFC1beZ9jsazSEqjBvApZB1VNFivK2ww/s1600/I.S+copy.+Tiger.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXinj2CZmQ28xVk4F8VWzDSPf47L2CDgFQA2jiDvktH2uwfKvu9Gu4e_mv7kpczBDjSd5t3CDbDRji_fetS7Z4dbkb8nGs3HlJAfc_Zrch4hVhFC1beZ9jsazSEqjBvApZB1VNFivK2ww/s320/I.S+copy.+Tiger.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724553462392444738" border="0" /></a><br />Story:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYWYyzmD6j3exC7tRtf_9ho_xPteFDR3nC_lDsbdAWqKSC1BkoFanfK260Vy3F7NjgyqVZEp0vIbBmfbHX92ZNtuL7wkiVRtk7PjBy51KvV5JglgUk2Mft3tULKpPmQ9TLfYgd76v0y9Q/s1600/StoryboardCOLOR.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYWYyzmD6j3exC7tRtf_9ho_xPteFDR3nC_lDsbdAWqKSC1BkoFanfK260Vy3F7NjgyqVZEp0vIbBmfbHX92ZNtuL7wkiVRtk7PjBy51KvV5JglgUk2Mft3tULKpPmQ9TLfYgd76v0y9Q/s320/StoryboardCOLOR.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5724553690708996258" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Plan of Attack:<br />As a senior, I only have 5 weeks left from today (EEEK!)<br />I am still trying to determine how to go about this. I think the best way to do it, and make sure I can complete it...I'll start by doing Key Frames, and then each week fill in more and more, always thinking about the animatic at a whole. Therefore, no matter what point I stop at, I'll still feel the animatic is 'complete'.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9YmeLJa0Bt293-o7u-FiYWuVFnELVxhAdIyx6MYcwL0jQlKJDoHpnSPs86DD-LLieQdf2EgnmmyYYtBXPwXEGV6h2G_PGU2paObR4LhVq8aeuUspaZs3ZbE4tKiVriJFlQZm5qYtw7qg/s1600/gantt.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 229px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9YmeLJa0Bt293-o7u-FiYWuVFnELVxhAdIyx6MYcwL0jQlKJDoHpnSPs86DD-LLieQdf2EgnmmyYYtBXPwXEGV6h2G_PGU2paObR4LhVq8aeuUspaZs3ZbE4tKiVriJFlQZm5qYtw7qg/s320/gantt.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5725305387940311826" border="0" /></a>Monica Croninhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17768628487690173850noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2120579065349162759.post-29518695550699306992012-03-14T20:40:00.002-07:002012-03-29T06:12:47.471-07:00Project Ron Saks- Week 4Red's Revenge.<br />Monica Cronin, <a href="http://www.jasonglenncharacters.blogspot.com/">Jason Glenn</a>,<a href="http://emlockwood.tumblr.com/"> Emily Lockwood</a>, <a href="http://mandylazers.blogspot.com/">Mandy Cline</a>, and <a href="http://kimmygates.tumblr.com/">Kimmy Gates</a><br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/MduCuBGg26w" allowfullscreen="" width="420" frameborder="0" height="315"></iframe>Monica Croninhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17768628487690173850noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2120579065349162759.post-34178870348400246232012-03-07T22:54:00.003-08:002012-03-07T22:56:38.760-08:00Project Ron Saks- Week 3 Part 4On tuesday, each member of the group took a piece of the story to create a mini animatic...or get done as much as they could. <br />The goal is to be able to switch parts, and be able to clean up someone else's work. This, in theory, will promote a more cohesive transition between parts and use of design and color.<br /><br />Here's what I came up with for my part...<br /><br /><a href="http://s1066.photobucket.com/albums/u405/mondicron/?action=view&current=Reds-Revenge-Part-1FINAL.gif" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1066.photobucket.com/albums/u405/mondicron/Reds-Revenge-Part-1FINAL.gif" alt="Photobucket" border="0" /></a>Monica Croninhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17768628487690173850noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2120579065349162759.post-43893792361310855802012-03-03T13:35:00.005-08:002012-03-03T14:53:22.622-08:00Project Ron Saks- Week 3 Part 3Emily and I decided to do color studies for the final storyboard, so that when we all split up to animate, we will all be in agreement about what the colors should be.

Red cocks her gun, ready for anything.<br />Title sequence.<br /><br />-Walks into forest and through forest, shows passage of time<br />-Hears a Rustle in the bushes<br />-scared, points gun, but doesn't shoot. Figures it's nothing, pulls herself together, and walks on<br />-eyes peer out from bush.<br />-walking, silhouette runs across foreground.<br />-walks more.<br />-squirrel makes noise, Red shoots, just missing the squirrel. It looks like a deer in the headlights as it freezes. Squirrel pushes nut toward Red, as an offering, thinking "i'll give you this nut, just PLEASE don't kill me".<br />-Red, realizing that it's just a squirrel, calms down, and ignores the squirrels offering (maybe steps on it?) Hardened by her search for the wolf.<br />- SUPER BAD-ASS MODE ACTIVATED.<br />-walks deeper into forest, everything getting darker/less saturated<br />-See silhouette run past again.<br />-Silhouette high above her, looming over her. She realizes this and points her gun in his direction. Moves the leaves of the bushes out of the way and sticks the barrel of her shot gun in his face.<br />-HER face shifts from a look of anger/scared to confused/mesmerized<br />-we see puppy. she cocks gun, and dog cocks head.<br />-she drops the gun, looking positively hypnotized by this puppy, and hugs him.<br />-dog looks at camera over her shoulder, face drops from happy/adorable puppy to an angry malicious smile.<br /><br />the wolf wins again.Monica Croninhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17768628487690173850noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2120579065349162759.post-4641844495893907962012-02-28T10:16:00.004-08:002012-02-28T11:06:53.739-08:00Project Ron Saks- Week 1.5As soon as our group found each other, we clicked right away.

Here we go:<br />TODAY I LEARNED HOW TO OPEN AFTER EFFECTS! :D<br /><br />Here's What I learned:<br /><br />-Open After Effects<br />-Your layer panel is on the left, holding all of your "back stage" elements, the Composition is the big rectangle in the middle, which acts as your "stage", and below is the timing and timeline.<br />-Click "Composition" in top, and New Composition<br />-Name your composition, select the file size, frame rate (24) and time. click ok.<br />-Now your composition is "backstage" YAY!<br /><br />-File SaveAs....save this AEP file in the same place your psd/other files are that you are about to import. <just like="" it="" t="" be="" able="" to="" find="" them="" elsewhere=""><br /><br />-Next you go to file, import, and import your selected file. This will also show up in your layer panel on the left. You can now drag elements onto the composition and use the timeline below to edit.<br /><br />-When saving, pull up your "Render Queue" which will overtake the timeline window.<br />-Drag down your most recently saved composition. Play with the clickable options to get a .mov file (pick quicktime not the .avi) and hit Render. <<i think="" that="" was="" all="" the="" steps="" in="">><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Here's what I got done in class today :D<br /><iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/36352741?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0" webkitallowfullscreen="" mozallowfullscreen="" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="300" width="400"></iframe><p><a href="http://vimeo.com/36352741">Hungry Bunny v1</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user10065468">Monica Cronin</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p><br /></span></i></just>Monica Croninhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17768628487690173850noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2120579065349162759.post-73888045710114304842012-02-05T19:33:00.001-08:002012-02-05T19:37:27.160-08:00Experimentin'Playing with GIFs in PS...what fun!

We practiced with an animal turning its head. Also she gave us these two links for future learning/reference:<br /><a href="http://www.michaelspornanimation.com/splog/?p=873">http://www.michaelspornanimation.com/splog/?p=873</a><br /><span style="display: block;" id="formatbar_Buttons"><span onmouseover="ButtonHoverOn(this);" onmouseout="ButtonHoverOff(this);" onmouseup="" onmousedown="CheckFormatting(event);FormatbarButton('richeditorframe', this, 8);ButtonMouseDown(this);" class=" down" style="display: block;" id="formatbar_CreateLink" title="Link"><img src="http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif" alt="Link" class="gl_link" border="0" /></span></span><a href="http://www.animationmentor.com/webinar/timing-and-spacing-webinar/">http://www.animationmentor.com/webinar/timing-and-spacing-webinar/</a><br /><br /><br />Key Information I didn't know Before:<br />Timing: Timing is the main story drawings. These are the Narrative, Key Drawings that are cleaner and more well thought out. These need to be held longer than the Spacing drawings, or at least to need to appear to be held longer.<br /><br />Spacing: Spacing are the in-between drawings. These are what give the animated look.<br /><br />Animating on 2s: 1 drawing every 2 frames. Most animation is on 2s, although if there is a lot of camera movement or dancing or something that changes a lot, it will be on 1s. "2s" refers to each drawing is held for 2 frames.<br /><br />Evenness is evil, that's why animators are odd. BAHAHA.<br /><br />Getting started:<br />We started with a Timeline. Drawing X on the left, and Drawing Y on the right. These are the Timed Drawings. Between those, there are spacing drawings, M, 1, 2, 3, &4. M is the Midpoint, 1 is the 3/4 and 2 is the 7/8 points. <a href="http://design4media.wordpress.com/2012/01/30/timing-and-spacing-animation-workshop/">Click here for a diagram.</a> You want to focus your attention in the motion closer to your Timed Drawings, so that they appear to hold longer than the midpoint spacing drawing.<br /><br />Now, create layers titled "X, 4, 3, M, 1, 2, Y, E" And draw the Timing Drawings on X and Y.<br />Then go to window>Animation Menu to pull up the timeline. {Note: if you hit the button in the bottom right of the pop up window, it will show the frames on a timeline}<br />Then go to the pull down menu in that window, and click on "Document Settings" to change the frame rate to 24 frames/sec. Animation is done on 24 Frames per second, based off of the persistence of vision in film footage. ALSO, change the Duration to 0:00:01:00. Duration is set up to be HR: MIN: SEC: FRAMES, so setting it to this will tell PS there are 24 frames in this 1sec.<br /><br />NOW LET'S ANIMATE!<br />Click on the M layer, and draw the head halfway through the motion. KEEP IN MIND:<br />1. the head will dip down, because that is what a head naturally does when it turns.<br />2. the eyes will shut, because all species blink when they turn their heads.<br />3. Push the weight toward the direction you are going, and let the features drag behind.<br />4. Distort as head passes thru, don't have to worry about details until the end.<br /><br />When drawing any of the spacers, look at both at the frame directly before and after, to get a good inbetween image. These can be very loose, just to show the movement of the key pieces.<br /><br />After you have X, 4,3,M,1,2, Y Draw E. E stands for "Extra" to push the character slightly past your final drawing.<br />Then copy your Y layer, and have that be the hold for the remaining of the 24 frames. Theoretically in an animation, when a head turns, it should hold or flip back and forth with E for a 12 frame period.<br /><br />If you haven't already, make each of these layers last for 2 frames (it should snap into place in PS). in the order of X,4,3,M,1,2,Y,E,Y and turn the Onion skinning on (square with striped circle inside).<br /><br />I've included the GIF i created quickly in class. YAY!
