PROJECT 1 - POSTER

Week 4 (26/01/2021)

Students were asked to choose a video on a youtube channel called Pasta Grannies and make a related infographic poster and a 60s animation for it. After watching most of the videos, I really like a granny named Santina to make the Pasta, called Lolli Nte Usa. Click here to view the video.

I started drawing the sketch and arrange the Information into poster after jotting down the steps. In addition, we must also find references as our style of painting and color scheme.

This week, I gradually completed several assets.

Fig 2 Granny-Santina

Fig 2.1 Ingredients

Fig 2.2 Materials

Fig 2.3 Pasta

Fig 2.4 Step 1

Fig 2.5 Step 2

Fig 2.6 Building in Sicily, where is granny live

After completing these assets, I started to put them into the poster and started to design the poster. The font I chose is OVERLOCK, because I think the rounded font fits the image and character of the granny in the video. The background designer of the poster is based on the background wall of granny’s home in the film. Below is the poster:

Fig 2.7 Draft 1

Fig 2.8 Draft 2, after add information

After watching the video repeatedly, I think the background color is not so in line with the video, so I changed to blue, which is more cheerful and relaxed.

Fig 2.9 Draft 3, after change color

Originally, when I decided that this would be my final outcome, I felt that something was missing in the upper right corner, so I decided to add a frame to the title.

PROJECT 2 - ANIMATION

Week 6 (09/02/2021)

After finishing the poster, I started to draw a draft for the animation storyboard.

Fig 3.1 Storyboard 2

Fig 3.2 Storyboard 3

After finishing the storyboard, I started to process the animation frame by frame in Photoshop. Although some frames are not calculated very well, it means that the movie is too fast. At this time, I will choose “TIme” in Adobe After Effect and adjust the time to slow down.
