Telling Tales - Week 6

How far I have gotten with animating scenes for my animation:
1st scene where my mouse character emerges from the grass

4th scene is where the Sparrowhawk spots the mouse and calls out when the mouse starts to run away. I made sure not to make it look to static by moving him up slightly when his wings beat down to show that he is lifting himself through the air.

5th scene is a low shot of the mouse running away to give audience an idea of what he looks like when he runs from different angles.

6th scene is a back shot of the sparrowhawk giving chase. At first I wanted him to flap his wings while he gives chase but after speaking to one of my tutors we I decided it will be less time consuming if I just animated him gliding towards the mouse which gives me tell animating to do.

Telling Tales - Week 5

This week I redesigned my mouse and started animating for the first scene of my animation. I redesigned the tail of my mouse character to be thinner and longer as well as try a colour scheme. However I doubt the time I have to colour in all the frames considering how much I tend to put details into my scenes.

Sin City
I'm considering doing the sort of black and white style with only the colour red for the blood which can prove to add more of a shock to when the mouse reveals his true intentions.

Keyframes I created before in-betweens of my first scene:


Telling Tales - Week 4

After a group critic I was informed of ways to improve the story and appearance of my mouse character. In response I created extra/redesigned scenes to present my mouse character more innocent and vulnerable in order to make it more shocking when he turns out to be the deadliest one. I need to make my mouse character look more mouse like as well as have more camera angles for the chase scene.

I also completed a turn around however I need to redesign the tail as I have been told it looks more like a rat tail. I don't think this to be my best turn around and it looks a bit jumpy but I only wanted this so that I know what he looks like from every angle.
