We received our first project on Monday-"You have seven days, create seven pieces, go!".
I've decided to create short storyboards/animations that involved everyday inanimate objects, and bringing them to life. Some inspiration for this direction is the "Bent Objects" series by Terry Border. You can check out some of his stuff here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgDynGCzpjg
OR...
However, I am more focused on sound and what the objects might say; what their onomatopoeia would be if they could make sound and how to create a narrative around that. I started off by creating three story boards with the goal of animating these three story boards in the next three days; Then for the seventh project I will compile the projects into a website and/or flash project of sorts-what that will look like I am still unsure...but for now:
I'm already starting off to a strong start [I hope]-this year will be crazy- got to appreciate every moment of this because when we get out into the real world, the space, community, time, won't be the same.
Three days until the assignment is due and four projects left-GO! Until Monday...
