Metamorphosis Animation

   


     Our most recent project in my G.T. class was a metamorphosis animation. In my group, was Gabby and Claudia. Basically, we had to create a story that showed change throughout it. Either emotional change or an actual physical change. In this project we had to use at least three different types of animation. We used a flip book, a whiteboard, digital, and stop-motion animation. Our Focus statement was Prom Strengthens Friendship.
     Our story was about girl who is really excited for prom. She gets her makeup, hair, and dress on and then goes to wait outside. She waits for an hour, and soon realizes that she got stood up. Right when she's about to go inside, her friend comes riding up on her bike. Her friend then packs her on the bike and they ride off to prom together.
     When our class critiqued our video we got 87 percent of the class to give us an above and beyond for characters, sets, and props. For creativity we got a 100 percent above and beyond. I thought we did really well. For our overall video, we got second place. I am very proud at what our team accomplished in just a few weeks. It was hard, but the end product looked awesome. It is amazing what you can make happen with stop-motion animation.
