Project 5: Hollywood

Guidelines

In this project you have two options. You can either animate your own version of a movie scene (or combine several movies), use some of its audio, and noticeably alter its meaning or the way it works. (ex: You could take clips from several movies and edit them as though the different characters are interacting, or animate Scarface as played by kittens.)

Or, you can use AE to change the meaning of and add effects to an existing piece of footage. This footage can come from the web, your own video, a movie, etc. But, you should find a creative way to re-edit it and flip the script. Video Co-pilot has some good tutorials if you're looking to polish your special effects wizardy for this asignment.

In both cases, I'm wanting you to be able to work with found material, change the meaning/intent of the original, and add your own sense of humor and aesthetics. Make something you'd want to see on youtube.

Requirements:

Your animation must include ALL of the following:

1. 320x240 pixels in size and no longer than 2.5 minutes in length.

2. Animation and Audio

3. Name your movie, YourLastName_5.mov

4. Follow the steps for preparing your files and uploading animations to the web.
