Today is a relatively short day, with the first half occupied by a talk session with video maker Victric Thng.
After a gruelling session with him, we proceeded to Amanda's class. We were explained more in detail about our assignment. We were explained to in detail about animatics, which is a way that we could go about doing our final project. We were first shown a clip from Youtube, which was a music video by the band Gorillaz. It is a virtual band that adopts an alternative rock, pop and trip hop kind of music. All of their music videos are 2 dimensional. We were shown their music video called 'DARE'. It is a frame by frame animatic and gives us a rough idea of how we can do our animatic if we chose to do one.
After watching this clip and someonelse's animatic project, we all finally got the idea of how an animatic can be done. After that, we got into our groups and started to brainstorm on our own individual ideas. We thought of subjects that we wanted to showcase in our few minutes in the final. I have thought of creative story telling and drawing essentials haha. Besides thinking of subjects that we would like to showcase, we also had to think of ways to present these ideas. We had ideas of talk sessions, interviews, one person narrations, using of captions such as subtitles and many others to present our work. We have also learned all that we present should not be fully negative i.e saying anything bad about our course or being entirely unhappy with our course. But at the same time we must not show that MOI is a slack and 'bursting with fun' kind of course.
Keeping in mind our target audience, who are potential MOI students and parents, we can proceed to do more research and brainstorming to find out what is the best possible way to present our work in such a way it would strike deep at the hearts and minds of our audience and leave a long lasting impression.
This would be all for today's post. A good night's rest and chiong day tmr!

The animatics for "DARE" by Gorillaz is a good example to be shared with us I guess; it really gives us the whole idea about what exactly animatics was, especially the real animation which is accompanied by music was played after the animatics; as it reveals the similarities and contraries of both an animatic and animation.
