Finally THE idea (I've been trying to get across)


lucy found this for me and thought it would be good as inspiration for my FMP.
I really like it and I feel it is very related to what I WANT to do for my FMP and also HOW I want it to portray to people.
This is the kinda thing I want... WOOP!!!! XD FANKOOOO LUCY (& also the creators - Animated by Julia Pott. Music & sound design by Christopher Frost.)
But I'm doing my own experience and what I am NOT saying is that THIS IS love or THIS IS fear, I am just merely explaining what's happened through little drawings of my own, graphic designs, music related and my own animations.






This video just makes me laugh but its cute... lol watch it!! & decide for yourself

The beginning of my Animation - Doodles

These are jusy some basic ideas ive had for my animation - all these different shapes and objects running wild on the screen expressing all different kinds of emotions mainly focusing on love + fear.
I thought I would use dominos too because they can be associated with chance, numbers - numbers are a game of chance thats what I think - you watched these programs like the real hustle, also the hustle, poker programmes, gambling games on the internet e.t.c its all a game of chance until you know how to feature it out before you get caught for featuring it out. Do you do it for the risk or just for fun or for how many numbers you can get??
I know numbers havent really got a true meaning into my FMP but I would like to link it in someway or another because I find numbology fasinating how something can connect and add to something else and then follow back to the first thing you looked at. The film Number 13 (bit of a mind f**k lol) but it gets you thinking "mmm is that true?" "Should i try it?" you dont dare try it because you dont want to be like the person in the film?

Anyway.....

Create the dominos in 3D using box model, then boolean the dots or hearts into it...Just some simple and basic shapes to begin with as I am not very good 3D.
Heart ideas and shapes i got the influence of the heart shape off the packets of playing cards. Simple with a bit of style...

These shapes and objects are getting a bit more detailed as I thgouth of what shapes I could use within the animation. The ice cream is a favourite of mine =] the balloon and the stereo are good ways to show characteristics of emotions especially for love and fear.

Well take one of Banksy's art work with the little girl & her balloon and she loses it and watches it fly higher and higher into the air - lost her love/losing her love/ never know what you got till its gone that kind of thing. It happens quite a lot in real life I guess Banksy made it into an art of what we can lose when it slips out of your hands if you dont hold tight.


The stereo is connected to music because I know when Im sad or happy well I listen to music whenever really but my point is you tend to listen to music and certain music depending on your emotions or mood because it reflects what your thinking or feeling, so to speak. And this is what I want to present in my animation not by different musics but by different emotions by using different noises/sound effects that could possibly go with the shapes that represent love + fear.

Motion Graphics _Film Title_Designs so far

CD CoverThis is just a follow on theme from the DVD Cover.

Just some photography - Bus Stop Shelter
I just wanted to experiement with what was already around me i did see a clip at one of my university interviews a guy did some filming and filed himself within a box set frame. The tutor mentioned that in London that most of the bus shelters and bill boards are moving graphics now so i took that advise and turned it into my own for the film title motion graphic project. I havent got the finally piece yet but will up load as soon as. I used 30 seconds to mars - beautiful lie as the background music.

DVD Cover
I wanted to keep it dark and mysterious with that sense of engima around the whole film title itself as you the audience dont know what is going to happen. It links well with having an adventure because sometimes you dont know where you are going at times, do you? Thats what i wanted to portray in this poject we were given and with using very little colour is rare for me!!!! lol

Search & Destroy



I think im just having a 30seconds to mars moment lol naaahh i do like their music its the indie pop rock sorta all combined into 1 shall i say lol
This song has meaning - sometimes you are searching for something and you dont even realise it and then would you do and all you know for searching, it's destroyed by what you've found it is not what you thought it would be your belief and thoughts are just destroyed and stoled from you without realising.
Like as you grow older you found out certain things you can only learn by growing such as friends and the things they do, boyfriends, girlfriends etc to learn as you grow older if only i knew what i know now when i was younger but then you wouldnt have done them to begin with to have mistakes to have learned from. You only learn from your mistakes and also others mistakes and it is only you that can change the outcome of the mistake and what you learn from it.
I think this can link and tie in with my FMP because you love and learn from your past lovers and know you'll never go for someone similar to your ex..? Fear you learn what you are afraid of and avoid every possible aspect of coming in contact with it. A learning process.

LYRICS

Grab your gun
Time to go to hell
I’m no hero
Guilty as charged
Search and destroy

Found my faith
Living in sin,I’m no Jesus
neither are you, my friend (ohohoho)

I’m a whore
A boy for broken dreams
The simple answer is never what it seems (ohohoh)

A million little pieces
We’ve broken in two
A million little pieces
I stole it from you

Search and destroy
Search and destory
Search and destroy
Search and destroy (Yeah!)

So, I fall
From heaven into hell
Sick as my secrets
I'm never gonna tell

Love to blame
Bottom of my dreams
Cause our faith is blessed, I believe
I believe, I believe
I believe
Oh, I believe (a million little pieces)
I believe

Search and destroy
Search and destroy (waohoh)

Search and destroy
Search and destroy
SEARCH AND DESTROY

Let go
Let go
Let me go
Let me go

Let go
Let go
LET ME GO

(search and destroy)
A million little pieces (x7)
STOLEN FROM YOU


Search and destroy
Search and destroy

Search and destroy
Search and destroy

A million little pieces
A million little pieces to start

30 seconds to mars



I am just really liking their music atm their new album...
The music the back beat just the flow of the music in general im just really connected to it and its very inspiring for me and it relaxing. It makes you think "Would you kill to say save your like Would you kill to prove your right..?" Something you are so passionate about, your work for example would you im just speaking from the song a little bit now as im listening to it... ^.^

LYRICS
No matter how many times that you told me you wanted to leave
No matter how many breaths that you took you still couldn't breathe
No matter how many nights that you lied wide awake to the sound of the poison rain

Where did you go? where did you go? where did you go?

Heart beat, a heart beat, I need a... heart beat, a heart beat...

Tell me would you kill to save for a life?
Tell me would you kill to prove you're right?
Crash, crash, burn let it all burn
This hurricane's chasing us so long to cry

No matter how many deaths that I die, I will never forget
No matter how many lives I live, I will never regret
There's a fire inside this heart and a riot about to explode into flames
Where is your God? Where is your God? Where is your God? ...

Do you really want?
Do you really want me?
Do you really want me dead?
Or alive to torture for my sins?

Do you really want?
[heart beat, a heart beat]
Do you really want me?
[I need a.. heart beat, a heart beat]
Do you really want me dead?
[you know I gotta leave, I can't stay,
I know I gotta go, I can't stay]
Or alive to live a lie?

Tell me would you kill to save for a life?
Tell me would you kill to prove you're right?
Crash, crash, burn let it all burn
This hurricane's chasing us so long to cry

You say you wrong, you wrong, I'm right, I'm right, you're wrong, we fight
Ok, I'm running from the light, running from the day to night
Oh, the quiet silence defines our misery
The riot inside keeps trying to visit me
No matter how we try, it's too much history
Too many bad notes playing in our symphony
So let it breathe, let it fly, let it go
Let it fall, let it crash, burn slow
And then you call upon God
Oh you call upon God

Tell me would you kill to save for a life?
Tell me would you kill to prove you're right?
Crash, crash, burn let it all burn
This hurricane's chasing us all underground

This hurricane...

Do you really want?
Do you really want me?
Do you really want me dead?
Or alive to torture for my sins?

Do you really want?
Do you really want me?
Do you really want me dead?
Or alive to live a lie

Running away from the night, running away from the light
Running away to save you're life
