the animation brief

"You are asked to develop ideas from your illustration project to make a short, digital 2D animation piece lasting between 15 seconds and 1 minute. Your animation must be set to a soundtrack and be carefully planned with drawings, designs, a storyboard, a script and a production schedule.

The animation must be digitally produced, it may be a stop-frame animation, time-lapse photography, sequential photographs, collage, cut-out animation or an animatic. Your choice of style of images and animation should reflect the story that you are animating (based on your mixed media illustration project) and the audience that you are choosing to target. Your choice of style should also be informed by critical research of past and contemporary animation styles."

  2. Hi Diana, how are you doing? You're sorely missed at college. Why don't you pitch both ideas at your story pitch on Monday afternoon and get some feedback from the group as to where to go with it. There's nothing to say you can't make two films it would just be a question of time. The other possibility is that you could make a second film for your final major project in the summer term, lots of last year's second years did that.
    Have a good time away, work hard!
