Claudia Jara Animation Project

Tara Grey Animation Project

My animation project titled "What's Here?" uses the technique of moving paper cut outs. The theme of impossible reality is represented by a little vehicle on a quest to explore multiple terrains, and can transform its body to accommodate for each one.

Monster animation by Kelsey Meyer

For my video I made a little chase between a paper monster and a lego guy. I had to cut out multiple monsters in different poses to give him life. I shot the beginning scene with a video camera, same with my cat Dre, and the rest was with my still camera. I used my bed and bed sheets so simulate water and built the set on my desk in my room. The end title sequence was probably the most fun part and I wish I had more time to expand on it.

My video starts out with the little indian figure on my bookshelf coming to life and climbing down to listen to my ipod. However, the story takes a new twist when one of the songs brings the rest of the room to life and it starts to clean itself.

So my camera died while I was trying to do this project, so I started over and did everything entirely in Photoshop and Illustrator. And this one is a much better idea if I do say so myself.

Kristin's Animation Project

This animation was inspired by the arcade Snake game. It starts off being the game, and then the snake comes to life. While it explores, a new game began with a female snake. The original snake falls in love, and they disappear under a rock. I used sticky notes and construction paper cutouts.

Morgan Sweazy animation project

I was listening to my iPod for inspiration and this song, Snake Rag by Louis Armstrong, made me imagine this story. I was also inspired by the old Disney cartoons in which the music doubles as the sound effects. This was animated using a whiteboard.
