What I did on my Holidays
My final project is based on the experience I feel while working. When we finally get good weather in Manchester I don’t get the opportunity to enjoy it as I'm always working. I gaze out of my window at work watching everybody enjoying themselves and it ticks me off.
For this project I opted to do an animation. This gave me an opportunity to use After effects and my other skills in Photoshop, Illustrator and editing software.

For research I looked at graphic styles and colours we associate with summer. My inspiration for the animation came from the Diet Coke Plus advert. I’ve always wanted to make a video animation using compositing software. I first used illustrator to draw different scenes
for the animation. This was a long winded process that requires a lot of problem solving of how graphic images would animate on screen. Storyboarding can only give a rough guide so I had to rely on a lot of improvisation to make the animation as fun and interesting as possible. I then had to transfer all my vector images in to after effects and teach myself how to use the software finally adding a complementary music track.
I really enjoyed doing this project I was given free range on content. This was an opportunity for me to develop new skills with software I’ve never used before and I personally think it was a good animation for a first attempt with after effects.
