Unit 1 Part A



What i think my strengths and weaknesses are:

Strengths in Media, i think my main strength is media is digital Imaging, i do a lot of digital imaging at home and i do that the most. I think that Digital imaging is the most enjoyable thing to do and the easiest.                                                                                                             












I think my main weakness is Animation because i dont enjoy doing it, i think some parts of it is a bit complicated like doing the storyboards, especially when you work in groups.

Challenging:
I want to challenge myself to create a complicated background, by making the layout, colour's, shapes and a lot more. I want to use tools that i havent used before and get a better knowledge of digital imaging.

Proposal

Idea 1

My first idea is having the first scene with Mario and the characters on a background with a title saying Super Mario.


Working Title
Cut out Mario

Outline
Mario is walking down the path and jumping on mushrooms and carry's on walking jumping up at the boxes and making the stars pop out and then carry's on walking/umping

Genre
Adventure

Materials
Lego
Background
HueHD

Target Audience
The target audience for this animation would be recommended for the ages of 4+, there is no violence in this animation, there is no sign of racist and sexist imaging or sound in any way.

Mario 8-bit Standing

This is the image i will be cutting out for Mario when he is standing, and after he's stopped jumping.

Animation Research



I enjoyed watching this paper animation, and the way that the paper is used to tell a story. The sound fits in perfectly in each scene and it must of took a long time to do this animation.


This animation is plain and simple, its exactly how im going to do my animation by moving my cutout characters and moving them step by step.

This is very similar to the idea that i have for my animation, jumping on the mushrooms and collecting the stars.
