Experimental Animation #8

 So for Last week's class, March 12, I got a new group since my last group and I submitted all of our work and got our final feedback. or the new group D, we needed to experiment by recording our voices as well as create 10 seconds of animation each. It was daunting but it was the most fun I had in the class. I could probably be a voice actress after this experience. We were having a lot of fun and I feel that learning how to add sound has definitely motivated all of us to use sound in our animation that we can make with our own vocal chords.

For this week's experimental animation that i really enjoyed was done by animator Jim LeFevre and other various artists. I enjoyed this experimental animation due to the fact one art peice that has already been completed, was animation as if it were a reel. super creative and its simple but can be tricky to pull off.

Experimental Animation #7


                 

                      Today was the day that Group D and I finally got a chance got present all of our hard work! Super happy that I had a cooroperative group that communicated efficiently and was willing to contribute to the project as well as listen to the ideas of their peers. I was really comfortable with my group and I loved the dedication that was being showcased. This is our final product for our entity assignment. The part that was the highlight for me was working with my group mate named Sandy. We used acrylic paint, glitter, water, and paint remover to give the glitter a wave formation as well s giving the paint a nice water flow effect. It was a MESSY process but completely worth it. I'm glad that a lot of my classmates/ audience got positivity from the scene with he paint. I really wanted to showcase that although an entity is mysterious, it can be positive. So I hope everyone enjoys it as much as we enjoyed making it.




So this week's experimental animation that seems to be promising to me is 
from Calarts by Josh Schaffner. I like this animation due to the fact it reminds me of the days when I first started doing stop motion. I love the vibrant colors and I like this patterns. Simple and experimental.
