PROJECT

Final Group Project: Sex Education Motion Graphic Animation 

Week1: Individual Task
3 YouTube Video Links Week 1 - 6/1/22
We were required to share THREE YouTube video as reference for our group project to our group members.


I like how the information are presented in this video, the cute and simple looks. It illustrate the complex organ functioning in a very simple and understandable way.


The transitions in this video is super smooth and creative, the old film filter also made the video more texture. I like the part that illustrate the Menstrual Cycle in a flower looks, it's related to female characteristics.


This is a video produce by a menstrual hygiene products company. The description about uterus was clear, the way they present the progress is easy to understand.

Week1: Group Task
Mood board & 3 Challenging Scene and Sensitive Topic Week 1 - 6/1/22

After completing our simple animatics, the works were distributed to each member of the group. We have THREE illustrators and THREE animators, and I'm one of the animators in the group. 
To ensure the consistency of the video, the works of the illustrators were assigned in a different way. Rebecca worked on all human-related illustrations, while Yeanne Tung and Lianne worked on all the objects illustrations.
For the animators, we just distribute the works by the topics [set(s) of frames].

FEEDBACKS

Week 3 - Script Breakdown
Mr.Martin: Very detailed script breakdown but could be broken-down into sentence by sentence for a better insight.

Week 7 - Progression of Animation
Mr.Martin: We are definitely looking at a good work, constantly produce good work not so much to worry, just want to suggest submission date.


REFELCTIONS

In order to accomplish this project, my group mates and I really worked hard and solved all the problems together. As soon as one person is dissatisfied with the outcome, we make changes until everyone is satisfied. Before this module, I never know that hoe to complete a design work with a team. We communicate and solve all the problem and came across all the problem that we faced. I'm satisfied with the final outcome and I love to work with all of my group mates.
