Final storyboards and brainstorm

Final video

http://youtu.be/rk-o9N2GXd8

This is my final video. I changed my sound. (It is still rainforest noises, but I chose a louder track because the previous one was way too quite even when i chnaged the audio settings while exporting a mov. file) I made my snail get out of the shell after the stick disappeared, so the video has a proper ending. I also put my name and reference to the sound sourse.

Now much more is going on in my video. I added a stick that touches the snail and then it hides in the shell. I think it worked very well and added more personality to my cute little character.

 This is my new development of the video. Now the track apears nicely and I think it looks quite natural. I made tiny letters appear one by one (not by groups like before). And they appear not after the snail, bt we can see it underneeth as well. I also added sound (noises of the rainforest), which I think was chosen well and works successfully. Sounds of rainforest make the right impression and my little snail looks natural.

My first experimentation with the snail track. I think it's a good start, bt it looks bloapy. So it needs to be developed.

Scetches and brainstorm development

On the scetches above I was working on the shape of my coke bottle and on the way how it is going to be visually presented. The top picture is a development of the storyboard.

I tryed to arrange my frames gorizontally on my stoaryboard, but it didn't work to well because the frames sould be squares (as we are restricted by 500*500 size for the actual flash video) and there is now way to organize them horizontally in such a way that i would have enough space for comments.

First ideas for the snail.

This is another draft. While drawing it I felt

 like I really need to invert the colors, so it would feel more like a discoclub.

This Is my first draft for the "disco" storyboard.

This are my very first scetches and ideas. Some of them were successful, but some of them were not so I replaced them with new ideas.

Excercise 1

Kerning excercise helped me to get a better undestanding of aestetics of typography. I found it quite interesting that by simply hatching the space between letters you can not only see, but also feel how letters and space between them work and interact with each other, and what effects that interaction makes.
