As we discussed in last Tuesday's mini meeting, each of us would take 3 of the ideas (being as there is five of us) to animate. As mine are not a sequence, I will be the only one designing mine. We've ran into a few problems working with the animators just because they want to do the drawing/designing too and the initial idea was for the graphic designers/illustrators to illustrate and for them to animate. However after a debate we decided that we would each design our own ideas and any that hadn't been done would just be taken on by those who finished fastest.
We also discussed more about the colour palette, this was something I was really insisting on for our group, they initially didn't want one but I argued that having one made us instantly more recognisable and it made our work all link in together as obviously it would now not be illustrated by just me it needs something to link it in.
To start with we settled on this colour green with red and white as accent colours. However in a test run projection we soon realised that the pine green was lost on the brick work.
This lead to us changing to a brighter green, I still wanted it to feel festive.
I have illustrated the bare bones of the images to be turned into gifs. There is some talk of us using adobe after affects to make things move but I'm not sure whether it wouldn't just be easier for me to do it in photoshop. This is something we'll talk about in our next meeting.
I still feel that these two pieces need a lot of work, they have been made to show a very basic idea of the two concepts (pushing the button and then the seasons greetings flashing up). I decided to do the red in the background for seasons greetings because it contrasts the other 3.
