animatic

This animatic was our first chance to experiment and learn how to use the programs Adobe Premier Pro and Adobe Sound Booth. At first I found it difficult to understand the technical side to the production of the piece, but with the help of my group we where able to produce the final outcome, even if it took a few attempts. We where able to use a motion tool to create a panning effect, allowing the audience to familiarize with the characters, we also used directional arrows for the drawings to be more clear of how the shot would be filmed.We were also able to edit the shots to create tension. We did this by lengthening and shortening the shots allowing the tension on the audience to build to the climax of the introduction to the vampire. We also created our sound through Adobe sound booth. We used a pre recorded backing track, which fitted in perfectly for the setting as the music is fast passed and builds up in texture, helping build up the tension. We also used pre-recorded footsteps that worked effectively.However we recorded the rest of the sounds by ourselves, for example the screaming and heavy breathing. I think overall the piece is good as it was our first attempt of using the programs and understanding how you produce film work. However next time we should be more organized and try and produce the work faster, but I feel this will happen as we’ll naturally become used to using the programs.
