Poster and Gif Production

This is a sketchbook page of mine which documents some group brainstorming of what we should do for our gif and our poster design. 

 

Here were some further group plans that we took out with us, and used to help us prepare what we would need for our 'photoshoot'.

Inspiration:

This is a gif from gifparanoia.org, which is full of realy great examples of gifs.

This approach of creating effects, such as blood is one that our group regards as effective, and would like to adopt.

Also another idea brought up by a group member was to have a go at using the first person approach, to keep our work interesting, and non specific to a type of person, which was inspired by this video here:

Its called 'Smack my Bitch up' and its a music video for Prodigy.

Our Gif:

Aggy and I started selecting the good photos from the hundreds that we took. Aggy started laying it all out on Photoshop for the gif, and in the process taught me more about how to actually make one. Later Emanuel worked on it some more and with the help of Kane this is what they made:

After some further group editing, including playing with the images themselves on photoshop, adding blurs and altering the colours this was what was produced next:

This new revised gif has more texture, and feel to it, its more engaging and fun to watch!

Unfortunately though it just wasn't really possible to fit the peeing images into it, as it made it too long and didn't really work aesthetically. 

Poster:

For a while this was the type of image that we imagined that we would use for our poster, but the flyers aren't clear so it struggles to really communicate our message.
