My Final Animation

This is my final animation. I have created it using different media. I hand drew all the backgrounds. This was because I wanted a textured look to my animation. I also feel that it looks unique and adds to the overall effect of the animation. I drew my main character (Jerry the Giraffe) in photoshop using solid colours.  I also created the skate board in photoshop. The reason behind this was I wanted to add to the humorous aspect of the animation.

Main Character

This is the main character of my story. His name is jerry and he is a giraffe. I used photoshop to create the solid colours and neaten it up.

Scenes

Below are some scenes that I have hand drawn for my final animation design. I wanted to hand draw the scenes because I wanted to use different techniques rather than sticking to once. I feel that it adds a better effect than just solid blocked colours. It gives the images a texture look. 

The Wonderful World Of After Effects

Above is a skateboard that  I have created on After Effect. I used a tool called parenting which connects the giraffe to the skateboard so it moves together.

I used the camera tool on After Effects to zoom into the house.  

I created Speech bubbles in photoshop and brought them into after effects 

When doing my research I was keen to see the characters reaction and also emotion. This is why I drew the giraffes face in and when over it in photoshop then brought it into after effects
