UNIT-6-COMMISSION--EUKARYOTIC CELLS

UNIT-6-COMMISSION_MAKING OF: THE VIDEO EUKARYOTIC CELLS

My first resource to making my final video is the idea derived from this diagram which shows the birth of eukaryotes.
As i further developed my idea of showing the bacteria in my first sequence.
(bacteria)
(eukaryote)
And later on show the eukaryotic cells which is formed from a bacteria...
(bacteria as shown in video)
(evolution)
(eukaryotes as shown in video)
The bacteria in the first sequence is more of a common unicellular cell that is found in muddy water.
As the second sequence i try to show the sudden rise and fall of unicellular cells.
This video is more like an advertisement bringing/showing the interest and wonders of cells relating to the first diagram.
(simple sketch of eukaryotic cell a multicellular organism)
(cd_cover(back))
(cd_cover(front))
(storyboard)
During the final sequence i tried to show a more defined character of the eukaryotic cell just to show it as a life form with a unique behaviour as it dances its way to the rest of the cells and works as an unicellular organism.

Continue Reading...

storyboard_sketches_cells

PLOT= the concept is to show the origin of eukaryotes showing from the prehistoric cells prokaryote (also known as bacteria) which is unicellular and as eukaryotes are cells which have a original nucleas.. as it has learn to obtain life energy in a faster way (oxygen).. as the prehistoric cells were precent since the earth was filled with toxic gasses but since the release of oxigen in air formed a new compound which started to affect the prokaryotic cells.. but some prokaryotic cells learnt to adobt in which it had found a faster way to obtain energy through oxigen as were the nucleas is formed..
This video is more about the creation of eukaryotic cells.

UNIT_6_COMMISION

so in this project the brief has asked to create a video in maximum of two minutes in duration. And also make a presentation which should last no longer then 10 minutes.

and after the briefing i decided to do something related to the first diagram origin of eukaryotes...
i decided on dividing these cells and explaining them in a way of giving it a character and more of a model... As i have got these ideas which are a bit similar to the cartoons and some movies i have scene related to human body for example magic school bus, dragonball z kid buu saga, etc i also decided to finish the review and story board as i could further research and develope an idea to make my character more active... I also tried to get some more details regarding this image on how i could elabrote and what way i could make it more fluent  as i would be adding its changes as u see in the diagram with the detail of how the cell developes in time and to recearch more on its characteristics..

final_Animation of maniacal television.

I am planing to redo this as i really love the story and the idea of the robot chasing the television as the television itself starts showing its maniacal characteristics and behaviour through electric, buffer and shake more like its going to explode. i really love the story as the character seem to fit in so well as the idea of having a robot and television seemed to be a good option.

maniacal tv_StoryBoard 02 and character sketches

I rethought the whole story as i coudnt bring enough maniacal in my previous story board.
I kinda started to like the character of the television set which has a toonish tone and a maniacal behaviour to it and the robot which tries to get ahold of that set but in the end it gets more like electrocuted by the television.
some plain character sketches just to have an idea of how the tv looks but i made the look a bit more simple and the antenna a bit weirder as i could reason them for a purpose in my video. i coudnt understand why the image is upside down i coudnt rotate it in blogger.

Essay research on Hayao Miyazaki


Hayao Miyazaki the second of four brothers, was born on 5th of January 1941 in the town of Akebono-cho,  part of Tokyo who was later known to the world as a prominent animation filmmaker from Japan.  I decided to write an essay about his works as i deeply admire his animation works such as Totoro and Spirited away.His movies are usually cloudy to differentiate between good and bad right till the end, which makes the play very interesting.

UNIT_5_ Storyboard_char sketches and ideas.

these are my sketches based on my story line of maniacal televition.. the plot of the story is to show the maniacal char of the televition with a funny concept behind it focusing on a one min animatic video... iam focusing more one the televition as my 2 words for my unit -5 animation is based on the maniacal and televition.
iam adding a ball like char which is more like a evil creature that posseses the televition.. and a hand operating the remote trying to get what it wanted but since the televition is posseses it has its own character and dsnt let the viewer to watch what he wanted.. and i am also planing to add many funny video mixings and crazy flips of frams which is almost maniacal in the scene.. and in the end of the story line i show as the entire places is blacked out due to the continues flip and change of the televition..

UNIT-5 Disney Fantasia



Fantasia (1940), a Disney animated feature-length "concert" film milestone, is an experimental film integrating eight magnificent classical musical compositions with enchanting, exhilarating, and imaginative, artistically-choreographed animation. I remember seeing this while i was a kid it has wonderful animatic and musical performance. As the design and highlights with the use of colors gave a whole new look towards animation. The dance of flower and use of textures had a very good expression of life even in a broomstick which made the character feel more real and alive.

UNIT-5 Animation - ideas

words, I got:
The maniacal television
so we are asked to produce a 1 minute, 3 act story 2d animation, featuring our object.
Storyboard, Concept Art and Character Design
and all the reviews for this unit's films



i thought of creating a concept something more funnier as the t.v has its own life..
the story is more like a man who falls asleep while watching the television as when he falls asleep he gets consumed by the tv as he wakes up and finds weird things happening around him as the time goes on he finds its all a dream.. but when he lives the room the t.v starts acting by itself all over again ...

Psycho 1960 Dir. Alfred Hitchcock

Most psychological movies i seen starts with a crime scene and lets the viewer with suspense. The movie gave me quiet a surprise in getting Janet Leigh killed as i felt like she would be the one living through the entire movie in the start. Secondly i really believed Anthony Perkins mother to be still alive. The psychological influences of the characters in the movie showed the darker and tragic sides of the character. There are many similar kind of movie adaptations. 
For example the movie vacancy(2007) shows the same style of a motel which is deserted and having a very sinister approach.

A young married couple becomes stranded at an isolated motel and finds hidden video cameras in their room. They realize that unless they escape, they'll be the next victims. But what i felt missing in this movie was that there was mot much psychological pressure but just plain nightmare similar to House of wax(2005).
The movie Halloween(1978) and Scream(1996) gives a good example of psychological impact on the story play as well as nightmare.
