My Animation Evaluation


My Animation Evaluation                                                                     
Jaz Edward-Bain



The Animation technique we used was camera stop motion we used this technique because it would best suit our characters as they were made from play doo so they lacked maneuverability, by using stop motion we were able to create fluid movements.


Strength

 What went good in the animation was the fluid movement the animation is fun the characters were well made the soundtrack fit the scenes we used the mortal kombat music to build tension during the fight scene we added the screams to empathies the fear of the characters.

Weakness

The weaknesses in the animation is that we did not plan any story so it was made up as we filmed so it doesn’t really make any sense at all so it lacks depth some scenes where rushed could have turned out better with more time.

But overall it was fluid and was fun short animation if I could do it all over again I would plan a story that we would follow instead of making last minute scene changes also the animation would have voices to make the characters more interesting overall just take more time to polish.
