Week 16 - Flipbook Introduction to Animation Project

  



Please complete Mr. Webb's Daily Check-In >>>HERE

OBJECTIVE

- Produce a physical portfolio artifact in the form of a 100+ frame flipbook animation, with dynamic action, color, and generally appealing imagery.

* Although you will be completing the tasks below with one scratch pad, you will earn credit for each production task as though it is a separate assignment.

FOR CREDIT YOU WILL HAND IN YOUR COMPLETED FLIP BOOK SCRATCHPAD, AND DIGITAL SCANNED VERSION BY FRIDAY, MAY 12, 2023


TASK 1.  ANIMATION PLANNING

On a plain sheet of 8.5-inch x 11-inch paper, show evidence of brainstorming imagery, actions, transitions, and story with sketches and notes.  Your note sheet should have your name clearly printed on the front and back of each side, and visually communicate all of the relevant information to appear in your actual flipbook animation.


TASK 2. FLIPBOOK ROUGH DRAFT

Rough sketches of animation frames approximate the shapes, movement, and story on pages of the scratchpad, as they are flipped in sequence.  The story that is taking shape should be clearly identifiable at this stage, with at least one main character having a series of experiences.  

This portion can be drawn in pencil or pen.


TASK 3. FLIPBOOK CLEAN-UP

Drawings are essentially "tied down" with clear contours, and staged compositions across frames.  The movement is well-defined, although some drawings in the animation can be rough and unfinished.

Outlines should be darkened with pen, or marker to create firm outlines and high contrast.


TASK 4. POLISHED COLOR FRAMES

Flipbook pages are fully rendered and colored.  Animations are generally complete and legible throughout.

*Take photo scans or videos of the final animation for playback on a computer.
