DSDN 101 - - THE CLIP - - Final submission

*Drum roll please*
This is my submission for DSDN 101 Project 2.
The following diagram is a computer remake of a hand drawn mind-map with a bit extra that I have included while making it on the computer.


A quick story. For my original idea (original storyboard) I had wanted to use a piece of music by a trailer music company. I emailed them before the break and asked for their permission to use their music but they still haven't replied to me so I took their non-reply to mean no and changed my idea. I decided to use Grieg's 'In the hall of the Mountain King' because it is a well known piece to many. This would mean that from the outset, viewers would feel a sense of familiarity with the clip and be more receptive to the message it would portray. I think the viewers can also enjoy the clip more because they sort of 'feel' what is coming next but at the same time they have no idea. I heavily edited the piece down to 29 and a half seconds and then listened to it over and over and over. Then from what the piece sounded like to me, I planned out the animation. And then shot it.

So after my mind mapping and planning I went on to create the storyboard and take the RAW shots for my movie.
Here is the Storyboard:

Here is a direct link to a high resolution storyboard image so you can read the words on it: http://i1212.photobucket.com/albums/cc457/SnoozerGuy/storyboard-1.jpg

And finally, after a very long time editing and 'sound matching', here is the finished product. My DSDN 101 project 2. THE CLIP, uploaded to YouTube.

(in my opinion, following the link is better because you can see it bigger than the embedded one, but still...)
