"Let's Get the Ball Rolling" Final Idea

After a lot of collaborative work, we decided on the aspect of having a theme that linked our clips to each other, despite the technique of animation varying in each clip. The title of the film will first off involve the idiom that we will use for such a title:

"Let's Get the Ball Rolling"

We found this idiom was the perfect saying for the collaborative piece, as it allowed the metaphorical description of growth and development of further ideas to progress in the planning of the project.
After a lot of thought into each sequence and the client's requirements and how these can be further explored, I as the role of scribe in the group produced an abundance of written plans into what we had come up with during the meetings about the project (See sketchbook) Additionally it was decided that we were each going to attempt some work towards our sequences over the Easter holidays in order to use our time more effectively and efficiently.

Here's the final plan for each section of the piece.

Rachel's piece- Opening scene. Stop Motion. (A short video of her tests so far of the Stop Motion)

• Begins as a blank background, then appears human hands arranging scrunched up pieces of paper into the letters that produce the idiom: 'Let's Get the Ball Rolling' 

My piece- Second scene. Drawn Animation with After Effects edits.

• Begins a group of sleeping creatures built up on top of each other, sleeping, anticipation of the ball going towards the creatures.
