This document discusses the process of creating a motion graphic project. It outlines the methods used which included research, planning, collecting assets, design and debugging. Key inspirations were the "Toccata for Toy Trains" and Pierre Michel's fire flower for attention to detail and dynamic camera shots/color. Dubstep music was chosen to help zone out and make the journey more surreal. After Effects CS4 was used along with paper/pencil assets. The final design abstractly represented the creator's journey to college through time and motion.
The map and the territory
- 1. By Ash Hazim THE MAP AND THE TERRITORY
- 2. Method Research Planning Collecting assets Design Debug/reflect
- 3. Inspiration There wasn’t much out there that really impacted the final output The Eames “Toccata for Toy Trains” was a relevant inspiration because- attention to detail, play with focus between fore and background and attention to off focus detail Pierre Michel’s fire flower was my main inspiration, variety of colour and hue, dynamic and abstract camera shots and music collaboration.
- 4. Music choice? And why Dubstep helps me “zone out” Makes journey more of a surreal/ daydream event Surroundings become irrelevant, memories become more dominant . Why not other music? Didn’t have the same effect.
- 5. Assets After effects CS4 Paper, pencil, pen etc. Computer , internet Common sense?
- 6. Final design
- 7. Explained Abstract motion graphic representation of my experience of the map of my journey to college. Expressed through time, to be at a location at a specific time, time defines were you will be hence can be a representation of a “map”. I see the journey as a process which must be done. Journey must have a purpose- A to B. Orange stimulates creativity. Surroundings irrelevant in a journey.
