Print To Pixel

Last week, we were given out newest and final project for Graphic Design this term, the project is called print to pixel and for it we have to create a twenty - thirty second animation. Our animation has to be inspired from a piece of music that each individual group has been given, and from this music, we have to come up with three words that are inspiration towards our animation, we can use a range of animation mediums, such as photographic, hand drawn, stop motion etc. I am quite looking forward to it I suppose, it will definitely be a challenge as I have never really created an animation before. We're going to be given inductions and workshops in areas that will be useful to this project. Our first one was for the photography dark room, and how to use the equipment and th basic do's and don'ts. I quite enjoyed it, as I did AS photography, and it was nice to be back in the darkroom, as I do enjoy the process of developing photographs. the tutor taught us how to create rayograms which are when you use an actual object rather than a negative to create a photo, and you place the object on the paper rather than through the negative slotter, you can create great effects. For the next workshop we have been told to bring in items to use for the rayogram, which is tomorrow.
