The scope of this animation project was to create a short, 30 to 45 second animation using Keynote and iMovie. In pre-production, I came up with the idea to create a sequel to my beloved classic, and I created a storyboard as well as a couple of sketches to finalize my idea into something producible. As for production, I drew out each frame in Keynote, to make it as I planned in my storyboard, and I made sure that each frame made sense and that the animation was as good as it could get. When I was done with the basic story animation, I added in some other minor details such as a bird and a flower, and I also added in an intro title as well as end credits. Then I imported each frame from Keynote into iMovie and added in some sound effects and music.
What I learned from this project was how to navigate and use Keynote correctly in order to achieve the illusion of motion. I also learned how to work towards my deadlines, as well as my own personal guidelines. Next time, I would probably put more detail in my animations and tweak them more so that the main animation is as best as it could be. Something I would do the same is find ways to use the program to my advantage to achieve certain effects, such as the slow-mo fall. What I would draw from this experience is to try to be as efficient as I was in this project, as I was pretty efficient with getting my work done.
