Week 1

Week 1, at first we weren’t sure if we wanted to do 3D or 2D animation. We even considered doing a 2.5D animation. But in the end, we decided to go with a 2D animation as none of us really has any experience with 2.5D animation, and for 3D animation would take up a lot of time with the modeling and rigging of characters, which many of us don’t really know how to do. So after deciding which genre we wanted to do, we went on to brainstorm for ideas for our animation.Though some ideas were just plain silly haha… because we were all like randomly shooting out any idea that pops into our minds… But in the end, everyone contributed to one idea, and we had about 10 ideas, which everyone thought was feasible.
With so many ideas in hand, we couldn’t decide which idea to work on!! So we decided to ask Mr Agus for advice. We presented our ideas to him and he gave us his opinions on some of them, on how we could make it better, what we were lacking, and what we could add to our story to make it better. Thanks to Mr Agus’s advice, we decided to go with the scissor, paper stone story. We didn’t think at first that it could make a good story, but Mr Agus highlighted to us that we could always use the simplest of things to bring about a good story, or animation.
So anyway, we decided on the scissor, paper stone story, and we got to working on the story. We had our pitching the next week, and we were all pretty nervous about it. Because we were worried that we would not be able to get it, and if we didn’t get it, we had to do another genre, or come up with another story.
