Title sequences

Today we learned about Title sequences we tried to find ones that used animation and we could take different ideas from:

The title sequence I looked at was the title sequence for Casino Royale I found this interesting because of the style that has been used which is a pack of cards because of the film name casino Royale also the colors are quite bright which would attract the audience.

pixar

Today in  Dees Class we watched a film on Pixar. I learned that Pixar is in Emeryville San Fransisco i also learned that pixar only accept Ideas from there own employees and that the ideas are normally unusual. i also learned that storyboards and scripts can take up to 2 and a half years and also that in Toystory Woody used to be selfish. The man thing I learned is that Randy Newman is the man. I also learned that the room number A113 is in every Pixar Movie and that most of the animators went to the california institute Of the Arts.

Dees Class

Today in Dees Class we reviewed all the animations we made yesterday. The First one we viewed was our one called the Fight which was pretty good but we could have made it a bit slower. The second one we Viewed was the Devils Cola Which i gave 7/10 because it was pretty good but it was a little mixed up. The  last  one we viewed was felt fun which i gave 5/10 because it was good but could have been better if it was slower and last a bit longer.

Big johns Class

Today in big johns class we learned about different video artists what they have made and why they have made it. The first video artist we learned about was Douglas Gordon who is a scottish artist who made the film Zidane which consists of 17 cameras following zidane in one football match. In the film The scottish Band Mogwais Music was used.
The second video we learned about was the Video by Sony Bravia which consists of 250,000 bouncy balls of different colors being thrown down one street. This was made by Nicolai Fuglsig This was done because Bravia's slogan is Color like No Other   so multi Colored balls were used.
The Third artist we learned about was Jonathan Glazer who created the next advert for Sony Bravia which consists of a condemned tower block in Scotland which was covered in 70,000 litres of environmentally friendly paint with the help of over 1400 separate explosions featured as imitation fireworks, concluding with a simulated "reverse demolition" of the building. This was filmed with a crew of 200 people over a 10 day period. The music in the commercial was done by Gioachino Rossini.
