Starting illustration images

Having the starting made with one geek and one nerd.

When making my illustration, I had them all under one layer which each parts are in the sublayer. when I imported it into after effects, the image was at a whole where there was no layers formed to able to move ect.

After knowing and looking that I need to make them all individual layer layers so that it will be layered when imported.

  separated and thought of what parts needs  to be together and what parts needs its own layer so I can do movement when i do my mini animated movements.

I have made them into parts and sections with names on them so that when I import it in, it will help me do things more easily than just layer 1 layer 2 ect.. 

Animatic 2 - cut down

Idea working for my animated motion

With this work, I am planning to do a text and image based work.

Having the starting to be mainly text based, and than it gradually grows with some images/illustrations to go along with the text.

I want to make it playful and kinda serious and make the viewer think about it as well.

Storyboard animatic number one.

From the story board that I had done, i had put it in and see how long it would take for it to run and see if it would be in the 1min mark.

When doing this, i noticed that it is much longer than it is meant to be.

Cut down to what I might look at.

My Idea and thinking when I saw this brief was about the children's overseas that are not like us.

Having many troubles and obstacles that they will need to go though each day.

With the organisation UNICEF non-profit group they do heaps to help and want to take a mini part with this assessment. 

At first, I was having trouble finding the right information I can use and might have to write my own for the Animated Infographic, but after long time searching and looking at many sites, found some useful information sheets that I can use and or combined them with relevant connection and information.

 

Researching methods and Idea

 Type face being playful and moves around. Into the next set of text or names in this case.

Having a cut out where you can move from one style to another.

The nice nature peaceful green used for traveling and the link from the colour of the money.
Over layes, simple green red and tone of trays are used.

 
The movement of paper going down with the scruffy sounds when been ripped if effective.

   Having movement move up, visual effects to get the mind with the images movement. Effective if only I have something similar like : 
something piling up
going to an angle 
fulling up with what objects or water or liquids.

 
A type of movement from one transition to another.
having one main point to another by using a map or lines that connects.

The simple and illustrated design can show the important point and messages without needing to have to much. The 2-D style with a little perspective shows different depth which makes it interesting.

 

Idea of destination from one point to another.
having images popping up while on a journey.

 

Having a nice one point transition. having the main image/object ect in the main middle where the eyes doesn't need to move much when looking.
