I really enjoyed creating this animation, as it made you scavenge for things to use, whilst also still making you use your own initiative and creativity to create something from usually mundane things.
I'm actually quite happy with how my animation turned out, using four frames per second on a short enough scale that made the story quick, straight to the point and effective. However, to make it better, I could have included more frames to give everything a smoother and better looking effect, as I feel that everything looks quite jumpy as there weren't enough 'in between' frames.
I would have liked to try this out using the style of PEZ, but taking out frames after making the video to see how that would have effected the final outcome, as PEZ was an inspiration for this piece, using mundane objects in a fantastical way.
Making this animation was quite finicky, and I had to do the animation a few times before I got it right, as often I wouldn't have moved the props in the right way, or the text would be misplaced, or occasionally, I wouldn't have moved my hand out of frame fully,as it was hard to judge the placement of things when looking through the small screen of my ipod. Despite this, I finally got the final outcome I was looking for, and for a first attempt as using inanimate objects for an animation, I think it turned out pretty well.
