Creative Exchange Week - Music Video

The focus of todays session was to create a colaborative music video for a client. We all got an allocated time slot for the music video to create a graphic animation. There were no limitations to the style of animation so any type of animation was acceptable. People used a variety of methods such as motion graphics, live footage and rotascoping. The only restrictions people were given was a colour scheme to stick to and stay within their allocated time slot.

The band itself is an indie alternative group called Champion of Youth. Their alternative art really compliments the experimental style of the class/workshop.

Due to the ammount of space available the piece that I made was a closure to the animation. Something short and simple to finish off the end of the video. The animation had to be no more than 2 seconds so I had to create something with impact.

To give mine a more messy 'indie' feeling I chose to make a hand drawn animation. I drew out the individual frames in a small flipbook and scanned them to create a digital variation. I took the scans into illustrator in order to vectorise and organise them to be taken into After Effects to animate.

 

 This is my end result before being added into the full animation:

This was a fun brief to work on, the outcome being for a real client was really fun knowing we had free range on how to tackle the task we got given.
