My goal for this semester is to make an high quality DVD to advertise my abilities with after effects as well as my abilities in painting.
In this DVD there will be a motion graphic movie in the background of the menu instead of a common Photoshop still. There will be animated sequences in between the transitions of the menu and sub-menus. There will be a slide show of my paintings. I will have three painting movies: one will be of my mural piece, the second will be of my Delta show piece, and third will be of my BFA piece. I will also have a movie documenting my BFA as well. The documentation film will show the steps creating the piece, the materials and the process of the BFA. There will be commentary and a small interview of myself talking about my work in the documentation film.
I want the film to have a build up like a legitimate theater production and also have a satirical joking feel. Therefore I will create a false studio logo intro and a false rating in the beginning, and a rolling credits at the end. During my own commentary and a section of the film where I talk to other painters in the painting department about their work I will have animated characters talk over during the movie and make rude remarks. I got the idea from mystery science theater 3000.
I not sure which effects I will use, but I will use the first two weeks to learn the ones I never learned in the first class: the 3D elements.
