My first initial idea was to put the lyrics across the screen via a piece of paper for them all to stay on. After having major dificulty of keeping the lyrics onto the piece of paper and in the same place, my computer crashed and I unfortunetely lost everything. So I had to come up with an idea as fast as possible so I was still managed to complete my animation on time, I thought by holding up the lyrics this was the fastest way I could complete it in time, and also as the lyrics were so small i would be able to hold them up to the camera closer so they were easier to read.
This is what i came out with:
I think that it turned out a lot better than i expected, but was very time consuming.
I think that if i were to do it again i would make sure that the writing was still so wasn't a little blurry, i would also change the song so that it wasn't so fast so that the video didn't have to have so many lyrics in. I would also change the font as i think if i had more time i would be able to find easier to read font.
Over all i am pleased with my final animation and think this it is in sync with the lyrics and thought it worked really well.
I took 387 pictures which i then had to duplicate so that they were in sync with the voice on the song, which was fairly hard as the song was quite fast, I had to get help with the photos and the music as I chose a fast song and found it really difficult.
To start my animation I used iStop motion to take all the pictures with the lyrics on,
This is a print screen from the internet of iStop motion
I used this software as it is the easiest software to create a cut out animation on.
I then used Sony Vegas to first of all sync all the lyrics up,
This is a print screen i fount on the internet of Sony Vegas:
The words are well timed, but its abit hard to read them sometimes although it couldnt be helped, the effects and range of speeds works well however.
ReplyDeleteI like how the words match at the same speed of the song. To make it look better you could of chose a slower song so you had more time to read the words on the screen.
ReplyDeleteI think its really well arranged, and timed well, I can imagine it was time consuming for you! its pretty ambitious choosing a song with lyrics at that pace to so good effort Sally!
ReplyDeletei really do like this animation i like the fact that the music and the words get placed on the screen at the perfect time the timing is insane how well you have done this i think it is a great animation and a brilliant choice of song.
ReplyDeleteI really like how the lyrics match up perfectly with the song words and how well it is edited. It is a very ambitious song for a first attempt but you done a good job well done.
