Rough Cut and Feedback | Wonder

Animation so far, I have included the music in the background but have completed the animation with the time I had left. I think it could maybe use some more detail from spending more time with it but so far I am happy with the overall result. 
I would have liked to have added some additional audio possibly to do with the voices, voiceovers would have made it much better so if I had have more time then I would have tried to do that instead of writing the words out.

Edit and Evaluation | Wonder

Adobe Photoshop Editing Screenshot

This was the first initial stages of the animation in which we had decided to use Photoshop to rotoscope the animation prior to using ToonBoom to edit the final animation. This was the first stages of rotoscoping, we used the frames that we drew in this photoshop document in the final edit combined with the frames rotoscoped using the ToonBoom software. 

The first stage was to import the video clips into photoshop in which photoshop then converts them into individual frames that can be drawn over individually.

From there on we drew over each frame ensuring that the layer and timeline matched at the bottom and right hand side of the screen.

Once the frames were draw round and the correct frame rates were set we could then export the final animation into a moving image product breaking it up by different scenes and compiling it in premiere.

The Audio | Wonder

Why I chose it
I chose to include a soundtrack in the background of our animation that would set the scene and narrative moreover I wanted to tell the story of the animation through the music more than what will been seen on the screen by the viewer.
The soundtrack is a slow tempo music piece that tells a story very well for example there is a change of beat and tempo throughout for each scene that tells the narrative very well.
I chose to include this music because I feel that it best described the scenes that were happening and best outlaid the narrative for the whole piece moreover the movements of the music and the too and from the 

What Music I chose
We chose to find a royalty free piece of music through a popular royalty free composers website which was http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/.
I chose to use music from this website because it is already a trusted source for royalty free music moreover the majority of amateur short films and student projects use the site.

Risk Assessment | Wonder

Activity	Risk (high/med/low)	Measures to reduce risk +impact	Risk after measures taken
The use of a DSLR camera	Med	When filming the camera could be dropped which would cause it to break. To make sure that the camera is not damaged in any way we will use the strap around our necks when filming to make sure that if it is dropped then it wouldn’t fall to the ground. We will also make sure that when the camera is not in use we will put the lens cap on to make sure that the lens doesn’t get damaged.	Low
The use of a tripod	Med	When using a tripod there are many risks that need to be taken into consideration. Due to the fact that we are filming in college its going to busy when we are filming so leaving a tripod out could be a liability as people may not see it and trip over it. We are going to make sure that the tripod is only up when its being used and when its not being used we will put it down and put it back in the bag and carry the bag which means that people will not fall over it and it will be not laying around the floor whilst we are filming.	Low
Weather conditions	Med	Parts of the filming are done outside which means we need to take the weather into consideration. If it starts to rain whilst we are filming this could cause a lot od damage to the equipment that we are using. We are planning ahead and have checked the weather, which is supposed to be nice and sunny on the 15th May.	Low
Consent form others around the college if they are in the background footage	Med	Due to the fact that we are filming in college means that there are a lot of people walking around the college. We need to make sure that anyone who is shown in the footage has given their consent to appear in the animation. To show people that we are filming and to make sure that they don’t just walk in front of the camera in the middle of the shoot we will be wearing high visablity jackets whilst filming. We will also use a filming in progress sign, which will be up around the area to show that we are filming at that moment in time.	Low
The use of a laptop	Med	Using a laptop could give us many risks that we need to take into consideration. We will be using a laptop to log the footage and to also rotoscope the footage after it has been filmed and logged. To make sure that no damage to caused to us or the laptops we will make sure that food or drink is not consumed in the area and also that when carrying the laptops to and from the fridge we will use both hands and not carry lots of things are once.	Low
Tripping over wires	Med	To make sure that no one trips over any wires we will make sure that they aren’t just dragging all over the floor when we are editing the footage. If a wire does have to sit along the floor we will put a sign up next to it to make sure everyone is aware of this and is carful when in the room.	Low

Equipment and Process Write up | Wonder

Animation Process Writeup

To create the final animation we went through a number of steps involving the use of multiple pieces of software including Toon Boom for the actual animation and premier pro from Adobe for the final edit.

1 Pre Filming Work - From the shot list and storyboards choose which scenes that we are going to shoot in Long Road Grounds.

2 Filming Day - On the filming day follow the plan on what we had originally planned to shoot and get all the shots that we had wanted

3 Filming Day Assessment - Assess the filming day and choose which shots we wish to use.

4 Animation Process - Import the clips into the ToonBoom software and start to create each layer and frame layout. From which start to draw over each of the frames from the video.

5 Editing and Exporting - From the animation software export the final raw clips and import them into Premier Pro editing software to compile them correctly in the correct order with sufficient credits and audio track added.
