Animal!

// Spring '19 

SKILLS  Adobe Photoshop; Adobe Animate; Premiere Pro


What tensions exist between the man-made world and the natural one? Who has ownership over our environments, and what responsibility have we taken as a result?

Scenes take place in the Boston MBTA, and feature local endangered species and species affected by urbanisation.


The initial storyboard and shot brainstorming.


TECHNICAL DETAILS

Initial video sequences were edited together for pacing, then exported and redrawn to stylise the surroundings and add animal heads.

Separate components of each shot were illustrated separately, then stitched and masked together in Adobe Animate. For example, the first shot of the train passing through the station is constructed with the train, the background and the text as three individual parts that were later masked appropriately.

Original audio from the live recordings were then added to the animated sequence with Premiere Pro.


The whole process took 2 weeks total, in personal time.
