Post-Production

Posted on 13:35 by Unknown
This term we've had a choice of 2 different projects to focus on: pre-production and post-production. I've decided to settle on post-production as I've reached the conclusion that I will learn more. Also the videos that George showed us were pretty mind-blowing. I will never watch a film in the same way again! Here is an example of VFX work.



Here are some notes taken from Georges lecture:



So for this project Ryan, Insa and I will be working together. Today we met up and 'mind-mapped' some ideas out between us. The aim is to produce a 20-45 second vfx shot that involves combining Live Action with Animation/effects. It can be 2D or 3D. Other then that the brief is limitless - as long as you do something fairly simple and achievable. Before we met up I uploaded the following photos to show them as I have always thought that these bins look like characters. They could possibly fly into the sky?







I showed them the photos above, which was a good starting point for discussing over possible ideas. Here is our mind-map from earlier today:





Some of the key ideas we got from the mind-mapping are the following:

-Having a real life toy/object come to life (ie. a wooden elephant)This could be built on with some nice arty 2d visuals.

-Drawing a door/lift/window on a wall, then opening/entering or looking through it.
This could also lead to teleporting and coming out of another door.

-A child builds a sand castle, then little real life - but reduced in size - people come and inhabit it. Expanding on this idea we could have a battle between two sandcastles using 3D cannons etc.

-Animation interacting with live-action surroundings.

-Moving through photos in a 3d environment or photos coming to life.

We're going to mull over some of the ideas we came up with and meet up on Monday to discuss our thoughts and hopefully confirm what we are going to do.

Update:

Here are some further ideas I came up with the help of my girlfriend - Nina when we went on a walk on Saturday morning around the docks and castle. We came up with quite a few...
