Week 7-Monday 22/02/2016

Today we were planning out our interactive product to make our animation. we did a PowerPoint to split my story into different scenes. the scenes were when they are walking through a town, walking through the forest. They bumped into their friends and they all stared into the distance. they found the house. they walked into the house and closed the door.

here is my final story

On a warm, dark beautiful evening, a young girl called Bella, who has long curly blonde hair and blue eyes was walking along a small town in South Africa called Cape Town with her brother David, who has black hair and brown eyes. They were walking towards the big forest with lots of green trees with lots of grass and a tiny path to walk along. As soon as they got to the centre of the forest, they suddenly bumped into their best friends Emily, who has short black curly hair and hazel brown eyes and Jack, who has blonde hair and blue eyes. Suddenly, they stopped and stared into the distance. But what were they looking at? All of a sudden, they saw bright orange flashing lights. Where were the lights coming from? So they all decided to follow the lights, which led them to their old, wooden, damp house, where they used to live before their mum died two years ago. All of them decided to open the creaking door to see what was inside the house and to see if it is still the same. They closed the door behind them and carried on exploring the house. But they hear an eerie ghost sound that is echoing through the house. Every time, they turned on the lights and they see different shadows of their mum. They are still trying to figure out where the sound is coming from. All of a sudden they decided to walk into the front room, where they see a shadow of a ghost through the mirror, which looked like their mum. All of them stood there for a while to see where the reflection was coming. While they were trying to figure out the reflection, Bang! The door slammed open but who opened the door. Suddenly, they realise the reflection of the ghost was coming from outside and it was showing on the mirror because the light was shining on the shadow to make the reflection. In a split second, they hear a voice saying that they only have five minutes to escape, so all of them decide to run out of the house and back into the forest where the boys end up getting lost in the forest away from the girls. All of a sudden, the girls panic because they can’t find the boys anywhere. So Bella and Emily are searching all of the forest to see if they can find the boys. But the girls find the boys lying in the centre of the forest with blood coming from their heads and not breathing then they realise that the boys have died when someone shot them in the head. The girls starts crying because they have to call their dad to tell them that the boys have died. So the girls slowly walks home while reporting the incident to the police so they can find the murderer who killed their brothers. When they get home, they find a surprise in the kitchen that their step mum brought them. The surprise was that they find a lantern on the table with messages on that they can send up to heaven to their brothers.

Colour theory

 

Tutorials with Kate, my targets were to check my punctuation and grammar when doing my blogs and my work.

The films used different colors to create different impacts of the film genre. Also it can relate to the characters and shows the progression of the character, for example if a character is a normal person then it changes into spider man, it changes for normal clothes to a red and black costume. It also shows emotions, directs the eye and provides subtext. Colour was first applied in movies in 1895. There was a 2-colour Technicolor in 1915 which was introduced by Herbert Kalmus who wanted to create a motion picture. search-1.jpgsearch.jpgScreenShot2015-01-28at2.15.11PM.png
