Animating Scene 5


For this scene I found it quite worrying to get done. There was something wrong with my Flash software due to the fact it wouldn't let me save, so I had to hope for the best that nothing crashed and keep going till it was finished. 



Because of not being able to save all of the changed in the scene, I have only been able to document the importing and presentation of the backgrounds.

Like the backgrounds in the other scenes, I created them by hand, using watercolour paints and then scanned them in. In this scene I had to create a similar sunset like composition with rectangle shapes of buildings in the foregrounds. 

I came across a tutorial by my favourite artist/illustrator, Emmy Cicierega, which showed how to make a brush in photoshop that looked like rain drops. From this I was able to save images of my background where I added in the drops bit by bit. 

The scene of the girls coming together under the umbrella and giving and accepting help from each to shelter from the rain is meant to show the positive and kind attitude which girls should try and have for each other to fight against the negative influences which most girls get taken over by.


With animating the last scene, I had to exaggerate the character's expressions when communicating with each other as well as to the audience. It is one of my favourite parts about animating, as I enjoy putting across the feelings of the characters in to the story.
