LO3:
The documentation linked to the production will be full and detailed and there will be
evidence that the production management and scheduling of the project has been effective
and carried out in a professional manner. The techniques used in the production of the work
are likely to be related to an understanding of current trends in the industry.
Planning
Brainstorm / mind map (add extra pages if necessary)
Risk assessment: Are there any health and safety issues you may encounter?
Paper/card cut
Low Risk
Low Risk
Discuss any legal issues you may face. Eg; sound, plagiarism, age restrictions
The issues I may encounter is the music copyright system that links with YouTube so the
avoid this I would use the YouTube feature that allows me to know what music I can use
that has no legal copyright meaning that it is free for use without any specific permission
from the creator and YouTube and also I would use for free non-copyrighted music from
the website Royalty Free Music.
What are the limitations of using this format? (i.e what problems/ obstacles might you
have?)
During production I may encounter some limitations that could prevent me from fully
completing it to full potential is that the printed images might not be printed in the same
quality as the ink used may be different each time. Another problem that I may encounter is
that the people that I use for the pictures might not be able or come in time for the production
process and also the weather is un-predictable as if I plan do a shoot on a specific day and I
would need to be prepared for the weather as it might decide to rain heavily.
What imaginative or inventive animations have you seen which use this format?
Add in links and screen shots of three examples of animations using this format.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9Et7UQh1tg The PEN story
Im using this stop-motion concept of using
pictures to show one-character walking
through pictures as they grow up. Ive used
this animation as my inspiration for my own
stop motion animation as it uses the
technique of time lapse photography through
the uses of printed photos.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmkLlVzUBn4 The Wolf and Pig stop motion
This is another example that uses the concept
of using printed pictures as my stop motion
animation section in my advert. In this example
it uses this technique to portray a chase scene
between the wolf and the pig. In this example
they place the printed images around the
apartment and carefully placed how the photos
would be positioned for example the stairs
section each photo positioning is well thought
out as they are placed in a specific place to
keep the continuity of the animation smoother.
Subject
What will the subject of your animation be?
The overall subject of my animation is that it is an advert advertising a photo album. It will
follow one character going through time/ growing up through different stages of their life like
from childhood to old person.
Storyline
Describe the storyline of your animation. What events will happen to your characters?
In my production it will consist of one person in the photos are dancing and walking in
different walks of their life conveying the timeline that the person is going through in each
generation almost like they are dancing through life. The animation starts with a little kid in a
playground then exists the playground, a teen takes over from the same spot walking along
the path back home, and when they enter the house an adult takes over walks past photo
frames on the wall of the previous characters and goes to sit down they now become an old
person picking up a photo album. After the animation has got to the old person sitting down
looking at the photo album the final picture will come to life from the last picture in the
animation. As the camera slowly zooms out the old person will fade from the sofa leaving the
photo album on the chair. The animation will be in the form of a TV advert advertising a
photo album or camera, with the message of memories are meant to last forever and be
framed in albums.
Characters
What characters will be in your animation?
In my animation they will be one character who is the main subject in the advert but they will
be different people portraying the same character as it is the different stages of their lives
aka child, teenager, adult and old person.

N/A
Add in images and drawings/ sketches of what they will look like.
These pictures are ideas of what each generation / reincarnation will be doing when the
printed pictures changes to another age period like from child to teen to adult to old person.
Movement of characters
How are you going to make your characters move?
As Im using real people in my animation, I will ask them to get into specific positions in a
way that allows me to animate them through the printed photos in my final thing. I think it
would be easier to put the people into positions that I want them to be in as using real people
as they can hold the positions stronger than using clay and plasticine as using them could go
wrong if the model gets wrecked during the production process.
Mood board
Create a mood board showing what look your animation will have. Add images
showing ideas of mise-en-scene, characters, costumes and colours that will be
present in the different shots.
Sets / backgrounds
Will your set be;
A blue/green screen
An existing location
Draw sketches of how your sets/backgrounds will look. Add in labels to your
diagrams and details of locations / lighting etc.
The set of my production is not a three wall set as it is set mainly on a rectangle table where
the printed animated pictures will be shown on. During the printed picture animation
sequence there is three different locations shown throughout the flow of the animation. The
three different locations are playground, a house and along a street. On the last photo of the
animation the camera zooms into the picture making it come to life where the old person is
sitting on a chair with a photo album on their lap as the camera zooms out the person fades
out of the chair leaving the photo album on the chair. For the section where the animation
comes to life the set is a living room.

Audience
Define the following characteristics of your audience;
Gender
My animated TV advert which is advertising a photo album is aimed at any gender as the
concept of growing up is relatable as they will be also growing up through the different
generations.
Interests
My target audience will more likely to be interested in scrapbooking, photo albums,
photography and creating memorable moments that are captured through pictures.
How will you ensure that your animation will suit your chosen audience?
In order to ensure that my animation will suit my target audience is that I will make sure that
there is no offensive language and fit the style of a TV advert that is aimed at the older
generation.
How will they physically watch your animation? (i.e in an exhibition format, on screen,
projection, online?)
I think that the target audience of my advert will be showcased on TV between programs and
also as adverts that show before YouTube videos plays as these forms of exhibition of the
advert will be shown on will apply to the different generations as the younger generation will
more likely come across it on media platforms like YouTube because that is where that age
group of the audiences tend to be on the platform. For the older generation it would be
shown on TV between programs as it is highly likely that they wont use social media
platforms compared to the younger generations.
Storyboard
Complete a storyboard for your animation.
Frame Rates
What is the duration of your animation in minutes? (minimum 30 seconds)
The duration of my animated TV advert is 0 minutes 45 seconds.
In seconds?
The animation sequence through time lapse printed photographs will take 35 seconds of the
overall 45 second animation
There are 60 seconds in a minute. How many frames (ie. Individual photos) will you
need to take?
If my production was a minute long with 16 frames per second for the animation I would
need to take 960 photos in total to make up 16 frames per second for a minute.
Lighting Design
Where will you be photographing your animation?
In the printed photographs I will be taking the images in a playground, along a street and at
my house. For the actual animation sequence, I will be photographing the animation on a
table in the studio on the Rotherfield Campus at Henley College
Where will you place your light source(s) to create interesting effects?
In my production I will be placing a dim light source in the section where the animation
comes to life and the section where you see the old person sitting on a sofa with a photo
album on their lap and in that section the camera zooms out of the old person in the chair
where the old person fades leaving the photo album on the chair. For the section where the
Frame numbers
You will need to label your images as frames
The first 24 frames will be written as;
0_1
0_2 etc etc
Dope sheets
A dope sheet is an animation tool which helps a animator organise the animation shot-byshot.
This gives the camera operator instructions on each shot type and how many frames this will
be used for.
A dope sheet is usually split into 5 different sections.
For example;
Because you will be working with video, you will be using 30fps. You will need to complete a
dope sheet for EVERY SECOND of your animation.
i.e, if you make a 30 second animation, you will need to complete 30 dope sheets.
This will be a time-consuming task, but it will help you understand what will need to
happen in each of the shots you take. The higher marks will come from a detailed and
careful collection of dope sheets. For example, if your characters speaks, you will need to
show the mouth forming every shape in order to look effective.
