This week we presented what we had done for our animation over the Easter break. This was our presentation! Â Presentation (canva.com) We got some feedback in class; unfortunately I wasn’t able to make it in but Ellie kindly wrote all the points that was made in our discord and we began to discuss what […]
Easter Break
Over Easter, our goal was the get all our characters/ props modelled for going back to uni so we could really just focus on animating. Ellie made a milanote where we could put all our concepts and research in with our own categories so I put all mine in: During the first week I […]
Week 7 + Week 8
This week, we tried to nail down our final idea before going off for easter. We messaged a couple of times in discord, but it was hard trying to work out when everyone was free to call; we all felt like we haven’t been communicating as much and that we are a little behind so […]
Week 6 // Presentation and Choosing Final Designs
This week, my group presented. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to be there in person but they kept me up to date on discord! This was our presentation: This is our 3D Previs with everyone’s put together! I was told that the feedback we got about our story from Alec was that we needed to […]
Week 4 + 5 // Previs
This week, we learnt about previs for our 3D animation! At first in class, we got tasked with using the file Alec provided us and animating the previs. I found this really fun to do and I loved being able to control the cameras and cuts. This is what mine looked like: For […]
Week 2 + 3 // Animation Project

World of Animation // Assignment 1 Reflective Analysis
When I found out that we were analysing animated short films, I was excited – analysing text and media was something I loved doing in A-Levels and GCSE. I was super nervous about the presentation as I was worried I was going to mess up or forget to say something while I was standing at […]
Week 1 // 3D Animation
This week we learnt from home! We spoke about what to expect for this module and the assignments that we were going to have. Henry spoke about ‘Hero’s Journey’ and used a couple of examples to help us understand it; I thought about the Hunger Games for each part of the cycle where Katniss goes […]
500 word reflection animation
This module taught me A LOT. At the start, I was worried because I didn’t feel like I was creative enough and wouldn’t do as well as others in the class. The more we did in class, the more I started loving it (Aodhan and Sarah are definitely one of the reasons for this). The […]
Week 12 // Final Animation
This week we presented online. Seeing everyone’s animations so far was super cool and I was excited to see what everyone had came up with. When it came to my groups turn, we got feedback at the end; the feedback for me was to add a secondary action to the walk cycle for the girl […]
