I have had a look at many different videos on YouTube as ideas and this was my favourite
I liked this because of how realistic it looked to the real thing, I would like my own animation to be something like this as it looks really creative and entertaining. I like when the things splatter as it looks really good when they vanish, i also like how when Mario hits the yellow block the penny comes out like the actual game.
Another idea is to make a music video using cut out animation.
This is an example off YouTube:
I like this idea because it looks fun and is attracting to the audience. I would like my animation to turn out like this with me in it using paper and drawings to create a 30 second music video to a song. I like how bright the video looked also.
This is another example of a model based music video which i found on YouTube:
I like this because it looks very creative but the only problem, it looks very time consuming.
My Final Idea
My final idea is to make a music video using cut out animation. I am going use my self as a model and take a series of photos to create a 30 second clip using words and drawings to create lyrics to match the song.
I changed my idea from the clay animation to the lyric cut out video because I thought that even though they clay looked alot more entertaining and creative, it also looked alot more time consuming having to make everything out of clay, although I could have drawn the background my self I'm not the best drawer so it wouldn't have looked as proffessional as I would like it to.
I am going to use 'Kanye West - Homecoming' for my song. This is the original music video for The song:
I picked this song because it's lively and has two different paces in the song so a section of it is fast then slow paced so will be fairly easy to do and to show different types of pictures and lyrics.
i will use up to 30 seconds of this song.
This is where i will take my series of photos:
=
I will start from '0:25' in the video as that is where the singing starts.
These are the full lyrics of the song, the highlighted part is what I will use for my animation:
I met this girl when I was three years old
And what I loved most, she had so much soul
She said, "Excuse me, little homie, I know you don't know me
But my name is Wendy and I like to blow trees"
And from that point I never blow her off
Niggas come from outta town, I like to show her off
They like to act tough, she like to tow 'em off
And make 'em straighten up their act 'cause she know they soft
And when I grew up, she showed me how to go downtown
And at nighttime my face lit up, so astoundin'
And I told her in my heart is where she always be
She never mess with entertainers 'cause they always leave
She said it felt like they walked and drove on me
Knew I was gang affiliated, got on TV and told on me
I guess it's why last winter she got so cold on me
She said, "YeKeep makin' that, keep makin' that platinum and gold for me"
(I'm comin' home again)
Do you think about me now and then?
Do you think about me now and then?'
Cause I'm comin' home again, 'min' home againDo you think about me now and then?
Do you think about me now and then?
Oh, now I'm comin' home again
Maybe we could start again
But if you really cared for her
Then you wouldn't've never hit the airpor
tTo follow your dream, sometimes I still talk to her
But when I talk to her, it always seems like she talkin' about me
She said, "You left your kids and they just like you
They wanna rap and make soul beats just like you
But they just not you and I just got through
Talkin' 'bout what niggas tryin' to do just not new"
Now everybody got the game figured out all wrong
I guess you never know what you got 'til it's gone
I guess this is why I'm here and I can't come back home
And guess when I heard that when I was back home
Every interview I'm representin' you, makin' you proud
Reach for the stars so if you fall you land on a cloud
Jump in the crowd, spark your lighters, wave 'em around
And if you don't know by now, I'm talkin' about Chi Town
(I'm comin' home again)
Do you think about me now and then?
Do you think about me now and then?'
Cause I'm comin' home again, 'min' home again
Baby, do you remember when fireworks at Lake Michigan?
Oh, now I'm comin' home again, 'min' home again
Baby, do you remember when fireworks at Lake Michigan?
Oh, now I'm comin' home again, maybe we could start again
Loyee, oyee, oh, loyee, oyee, oh
Comin' home again
Loyee, oyee, oh, loyee, oyee, oh
Comin' home again
Maybe we could start again
