Statement of intent
Task: Generate finished ideas for a 60 second stop motion animation, with original soundtrack. (You must consider your potential audience. You should submit: An appropriate treatment/script; a detailed and annotated storyboard with timings; All pre-production test material (visual and sound) and development work). | |
Candidate name: Joshua Moss | Theme: E stings |
Title of the Animation: Jelly | |
Story or plot of animation | |
The animation starts off with a jelly on a plate and bits of it disappear, when all the jelly disappears, the camera zooms into the plate doing a close up on the E4 logo. At the last second a spoon with a burp noise appears. | |
Reasons for selection of theme (including inspiration from the work of others) | |
I chose this theme for my esting because it will be a simple and quick animation. The inspiration for my esting were the stop motion videos of making stuff disappear without explanation, such as, coke cans, food and people. | |
Target Audience | |
The target audience for my stop motion would be anyone that watches the E4 channel and people who like to eat jelly. | |
Equipment needed | |
· Camera · Jelly · Plate · Cling Film · An E4 logo · Tripod · Spoon | |
Techniques that will be used and how they will help convey the visual message | |
The techniques that will be used in the stop motion will be camera angles, a high angle shot of the jelly disappearing and a close up of the jelly to define the E4 logo | |
Ideas for sound track | |
The soundtrack I will be using for my stop motion would be ‘Eat It – Weird Al Yankovic’ as it it goes well with jelly being “Eaten”. | |
Risk and health and safety considerations | |
Risks that could happen in the stop motion would be; · That the cameraman would drop the camera in the jelly · Could choke on the jelly · Table could break and fall on someone’s foot · Tripod could snap and break the camera | |
