Today, we'll start working on the plan for our final animation project:
10-second stories!
What we will do is get into groups of 5 people and decide on one 10-second story to tell.Here are some examples of animations that are just about 10 seconds long:

Because there will be 5 people in each group, each person will need to draw 2 seconds, or about 20 frames. That means each person needs to make about 20 small drawings.
Person 1 Person 2 Person 3 Person 4 Person 5
Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5
20 Drawings 20 Drawings 20 Drawings 20 Drawings 20 Drawings
2 Seconds 2 Seconds 2 Seconds 2 Seconds 2 Seconds
Here are some good and bad examples:
Good:
- All the drawings are in slow motion. The drawings only change a little bit from one to the next.
- The pages link together at the beginning and the end. They all fit together like parts of a story.
- All the pages are worked on at the same time. Because you planned your story, you know what will be happening on each page of your plan.
Bad:
- The drawings happen to quickly. Things change too much from one drawing to the next. Things suddenly appear without coming into the drawing slowly.
- The pages do not fit together. The end of one page does not match with the beginning of the next.
- Only the first 2 pages are worked on. You have not used your story plan to know what will be happening at the beginning and end of each page of your plan.
So, what you need to do is:
- Get into groups
- Decide on a story
- Tell me the story in 5 parts
- Begin your drawing!!!
You may begin.
