Evaluation




Overall in this module I feel I have learnt a lot, from demonstrating and understanding the animation process all the way to the basics. I am very pleased with my final outcome. I think it relates to my audio track well and runs nice and smoothly. Im glad I picked cell animation as my media to complete the animation, I feel it gives the right effect for its enviroment of being old fashioned/ classical.
I’ve picked up skills using different software’s  eg. Aftereffects/ istopmotion and a couple of others. I’d like to think I’l be able to carry on this type of graphics in my own time as I’ve very much enjoyed Print to Pixel.

Rendering


After the song was set to the right time and place i needed to render it so i clicked onto make movie and let it go into the render que.





I set the name as 'DJ Goldberg'. The settings were all right and i selected the audio out put to make sure my track played when id finished rendering. After it was saved to a quicktime i uploaded it to Youtube ready to come across to my blog!

Goldberg Variations


After i'd sorted out the imagery i brought in my music track. Im just playing it from the start because the length of my animation fits perfectly with the first verse which i'm very pleased with!

Into After-effects



I changed the timing to 26 seconds so it matched the frame rate and ran smoothely.

Into After-effects


After they were imported i whipped them down into the compo box and let them render through to play back. At first the timing frames weren't set to 12 it was on 30 so the animation only lasted about 12 seconds, so i changed it down.



Into After-effects

I saved all of my sketches after scanning them in to an animation folder and imported them into after effects.


I selected all of the images that i had put into a sequence and clicked the option 'sequence layers' and chose composition mode.
