Sue has set an assignment which I had to complete within a group, I worked with Alessandra and Raymond It was very fun and interesting. We had to make a short film by using cut out animation. Cut out animation is the oldest form of animation around. It is the technique for producing animation using flat characters, props and backgrounds cut from materials such as paper, card, stiff fabric or even photographs.
Here are the positive things why people use cut - out animation for example its easy to use, easy to animate, easy to move about, it also easy when you have lots of characters and you want them to talk because all you do it cut a slit by their mouth so it can move up and down everyone you take a picture and you play your footage you can see that its a moving footage and looks like they are talking then all you have to do is put sound effects into the footage.
The negative aspects of why people don't like using cut - out animation are; your only limited to magazines, new papers for example if you think of a story line but you can't find any images to fit in with your animation you have to find a different story line. There is a lot of cutting out and it wastes a lot of time when you could be already starting your video, also once you have done that you have to sit on the computer and press the button every time you move your image a little bit. As I was saying before you can't start making your story boards or story line until you have picked out all of your images. Last thing cut - out animation took me and my group along time to complete because we had to go through the magazine and start cutting out images, putting a story line together and making a story board. But once we finished the main part, we got straight onto the editing, it took us about 20 minutes to edit, add voice overs and sound effects. As you can see our animation is about 30 seconds but it took us 7hours to complete just the first part.
There are lots of animators which have used cut - out animation. For example Terry Gilliam, he started his career as a animator strip cartoonist for children series called Do Not Adjust Your Set. Also Maya Weksler is another animator that devolved cut - out animation for children it's called Miss Polly Had A Dolly, its a nursery rhyme. Here are some more examples of films, music videos, programmes ' Fonejacker, Bruno Mars (Lighters), RiRi (Japanese film) etc.
I feel that me and my group's cut - out animation was successful and worked very well because there were no arguments, we got on straight away, we started to cut out pictures from magazines and started to think of a story line which we could of used. We had problems when it come down to the editing because we didn't know whether to use voice overs, speak bubbles or music. So then we just decided to put all three of them into our cut - out animation video. It was really fun working with Alessandra and Raymond and I would love to work with them again, I think we make a good team and I think that they would say the same.
that was reaaally funny, your animation is perfect. well done :D
