Ideas that im pushing foward part 2 !!

With the transformation idea i thought it will fit the criteria with it being simple, fast/hectic/ and random. But the problem is that i haven't managed to decide on what colours i want for the animation. This is sort of the shape i had in mind to begin with before it starts transforming.




Here are some images with multiple shapes that i have fount, from here i started to select shapes that appealed to me, and which is simple not to complex for the animation.

Ideas that im pushing foward with !!

There are 3 main ideas on what i want to push on foward, they are Idea 9, idea 7 and another idea to do with somethinng transforming into different objects quickly then to transform into the words of something like "Uk Top 10"

With idea 9 it was about orbs of light traveling down cables/pipes then reaching a machine which the ball of light go into.

With the pipes idea i wanted the camera to be at this perspective for a brief moment to see the ball of light travel down.

The machine to have headphones and i was thinking of having the ball of lights travel into the headphones to start up the machine. Down below are headphones from 3 different perspective to help me draw them for the storyboard, but with the image to the left, if my favourite. :D

As with the wierd projector i wanted it to be connected to the robot/humanoid, but i wanted the projector to look quite old, so having the new mix in with old. Down below are again images help me draw out my idea and to help you get a better idea on what im aiming for. With the middle image i fount it quite eye catching but also quite disturbing, and wasn't the feel i was aiming for, and with the design of it, it does look to copmplex. The other robot image to the right, again wasn't the feeling i was looking for , it to me didn't look as seruius as i want, instead gave me like an "awwwwwwww" feeling as it is cute in my eyes :D

What i learnt about their animation :D

From looking at multiple animations for the music channels i started to notice certain things on which they all contain. First of all they are all very short lasting about 10 seconds maximum, but with in that 10 seconds there are many things going on at the same time e.g. many shapes moving together. The colours of the animation are "usually" bright, with a dark background making it eye catching, but also for me creates a techno feel, which techno in turn means, futuristic/modern.

The camera work is always moving never in one place for too long, keep up with the action, and also making it feel more hectic. the story of the animation to me is quite randomly spontaneous, with simplistic feel. When i mean simple there aren't any sophisticated shapes, or hunmans, or robots in them, just simple shapes like a square, or a rectangle.

So the keys things whihc are think neccessary:

1. Quick & fast pace

2. Simple feel

3. Eye catching

something like :D

i Fonts !

Looking at the other animations I noticed that they have very little words, and when they do it just tells you what the program is called, as seen below.

I saw that there fonts that they have chosen are quite bold and don’t have any little flicks (like this font)on the letters which makes it a sans serif, and having the white I guess gives it that calm feel to it.

So now with these in mind i started to become more aware about selecting a font. For instance you what do you want the font to be about, do i want it to be easily read by having the right colours and not a sophisticatied font, also do i want the font to go with the words.

The things of which im certain of, is that the font im going to be using will be "Bold" and "Sans serif"

Today top 10

Hehehehe ^^ i finally managed to dinf the video to "Today top 10" animation from the "lumiere" company,

The buzz chart

I finally fount an animation for the buzz chart animation :D here it is

Another object for my robot/humanoid projector idea.

With this image i like the idea of the mickey mouse dissappearing slowly into the air, like a fade away, which i can apply to a random object ^^

The idea of having loads of tiny televisions on the animation was a click to me, something which i got from this image, which seem to be quite cartoony :p

I like how random this image is with 2 different worlds in one. one being cartoony and the other being ours. I can use this idea to create a enviorment on 3-d max with the animation of so and so on adobe after effects :p

Another image i fount which resembles the black lines idea, but this time i taken the image becuase this time they make faces instead of objects

On idea 8 when i mentioned i wanted an object to be squeezed, the image below is something of some resemblance of i wanted to be squeezed but have it more like a exclamation mark and with no face.

Instead of having a full human head i did think of having the idea of a wierd robotic humanoid head, something like the image below but not as scary, and with headphones.

The lines in here reminded me of those line on a hospital device which measures your heart rate, due to it being all zig zaggy, it is also bright and colour full on a dark background, again similar to some of the music animations. Another idea whihch i may use to come up with an idea :p

The objects in this image stand out to me because its like a contrast between that and the dark background which is seen in some of the animations that they have for the muscial programs, e.g. the buzz chart, UK top 20. The spiral shape remind me of sound waves, hmmmmmmmmm

This image resembled on the my idea of having a black ink go round on a white piece of paper and draw random images, also i like that random little blue bird that it is there :D

This also resembled the idea with the black lines drawing random objects whike traveling around the screen, but the thing i like about this image as well is that it contains 3-d objects which the lines have used to come out from :D

I took this image becuase it captured by eye on how bright the colours were and, how the toop part of the cup is blurred out

This reminded me of the Tmf animation, which contains many small rectangle boxes, but in this case snmall circles which are connected, by a blakc line. With something like this i was thinking of having a big cylinder in the middle with small televisions hanging off the black lines instead of the circles.

I like the idea of the 3-d objects being transparent and its simplistic feel that it has by just having cubes with a simple background.
