looking at final animation compared to my moving pictures project proposal

"To make sure the image sequences are understood and theme appreciated, the objects will change one by one." - after creating each image sequence in dragon frame and taking them into after effects, showing the transformation of the object changing into to something, though this was showed and focused on the technique thoroughly, it became rather boring to watch, especially when the image sequence was quite long - e.g the little girl growing rabbit ears. therefore i decided to overlap image sequences to maintain interest. 

• redo-ing book sequence

old sequence: pages flickered too much and was too complicated to watch. the imagination process of the rabbits jumping out the book is too long and i found you lost interest. 

new sequence: used actual and to open the book so the process of opening the book was smoother and looked more realistic. used less frames to show the transition of the rabbits jumping out and changing position.
 like i did on the first sequence, i wanted the rabbits on the book to disappear to give the impression that the rabbit is moving, however in this sequence, the rabbits still exist on the page as i didn't turn the page to a blank one to start the next rabbit. eventhough this wasn't what i initially wanted to show, i think the concept is actually stronger this way, showing how the words have left the page and turned into the imagination (rabbit) . 

using ideas/ sketches i had done in my visual journal of lewis Carroll in my animation:

• choosing key motifs to describe aspects of he's life

• layering of image sequences 

one of my main issues with after effects and my animation was trying to blend in the separate image sequences to the black ground. e.g the key at the top right has a glow around it due to the light changing when the key was moved during dragon frame,i played around with creating mask paths to cut of the majority of the image background, though it is very light it is still very noticeable which is really annoying. 

slight change in colour around the book and book itself due to separate image sequences being overlapped. though i used the same lighting, background paper, and did not move the camera i still managed to get a slightly different light when using dragon frame, which causes a flickering effect when placed next to each other on after effects so does not run as one smooth motion like i would want.
