Dynamic Image: THE FINAL ANIMATION

Dynamic Image: Using Sound

Experimented with different sounds.
I used sounds from garage band. I really liked the idea of using drum beats to emphasize parts of the animation; particularly bongo drums because, I think, they are closely or often associated with wildlife.
I also combined sound effects as to make the sound more layered and interesting, using 'jungle', 'chimpanzee' and 'crickets'
Here are some of the compositions I made with the final animation.

Playing with sound - bongos and the music 'Jaracanda' from Garage Band - Chose it because of the 'safari' feel theme the music has. Starts quite late on for some reason! I think it is too much with all the sounds and music together.



Then I looked at removing the bongos, to see what 'Jaracanda' would sound like:-

Doritos Advert - shows how just one instrument can be used as the sound for an advert.

Dynamic Image: Lighting

I had another look at adding lighting to the animation, just to emphasize and highlight areas of the PSA. Rather than have the same intensity etc for the whole animation, which at times was too bright, I adapted the lighting to each section; so the light intensity for the tiger is 150% whereas the monkey has an intensity of 120% etc. It works slightly better than the previous one. I also experimented with the way the light would look on screen, for example adjusting the light cone angle, position and feathering, which I recorded in photos. I made the cone angle quite large because in the end I think the animation looks better when the entire screen is lit up.

Dynamic Image: The Whole Thing, with Beginning and Ending!!

Dynamic Image: Now the beginning has cut off completely!

ARGH!
Longer ending thou:-
Works a lot better, more time for the message to impact viewer etc...

Dynamic Image: The One with Lighting

The start is REALLY weird, not sure what happened there, colours aren't right. I'm saying its a technical fault...
