DIGA3035 M6CP1 Animation

 I'm a bit behind and am finalizing the bits that need to be put into Animate. Below are the backgrounds and character silhouettes that I am still debating on using. I also have to finalize the narration for the piece and pick out a font and decide where to put the lines in the actual animation. I am also thinking about background sounds and possibly some music. 

Shot one: Lines 1, 2, 3. Zooms in to books.


Shot two: lines 4, 5, 6. I may add the following silhouettes whose arms will move, I have created layers so that the silhouettes can be below the table and on top of the benches. Possible sounds of cup/glass being set onto table. Smoke from cigarettes and coffee.


Shot 3: lines 7-11. Smoke for both coffee and cigarette. Page will flip per line (maybe with sound).


Shot 4: Lines 12, 13, 14. Smoke again for coffee and cigarette. Pages on tablet will flip.


Shot 5: Line 15, silhouettes will be separated and move towards each other, possibly arms around each other. These silhouettes are just place savers for now, I will find/create something better. Still debating on background which will be used for the next shot.


Shot 5A: Line 16. Again, these are just place holders. The man and woman will be together and the baby bundle will appear in the woman's arms. I still have to decide on a background--I'm thinking a simple background of just a color or pattern.


Shot 6: Line 17. Unsure of animation for this. Maybe just zooming in or the Charity book dancing/shaking/shimmying...


Shot 6A: Lines 18 and 19. Final shot. Again, steam for the coffee.


Below are the storyboards and poem from the last post.

 You're Still My Favorite Book, poem animation So, I have to say I am so not a fan of Adobe Animate. I struggled and fought with this program nearly every step of the way. I would do one thing and repeat it exactly the same but it wouldn't work the second time. I'm glad that I went with something so simple because I think I would have lost my mind trying to making anything more difficult. I can't tell you how many things I Googled and how many addition videos I watched in addition to the tutorial. Exporting was a real pain too. Before I had considered iMovie the most wretched program, but now that coveted spot belongs to Animate. As I said, I went with simple animation: the moving of the text and silhouettes along with the smoke/steam effect. I went with the silhouettes from Dzmitry that I found on Adobe Stock because the silhouettes I created looks horrifying. I also used royalty free music by Bensound. I did consider narrating the poem, but I chickened out in the end.

I was able to simplify my idea for the video from the previous sketches, and I think that I will be able to create it based off of the storyboard below. I have also included a copy of the poem itself and marked off which lines will be combined for each part of the animation. Please excuse the order of shots and how poorly my scanner works. Shot 1 (top right): Will be emphasizing the books under the table leg. Lines: 1, 2, 3. Shot 2 (top left): The table showing one or two books along with an ashtray, a coffee cup, and a glass cup. Lines: 4, 5, 6. Shot 3: close up of my side of the table with my steaming coffee, smoking cigarette in ashtray, and book where the pages will flip after every other line read. I will include a second book and drink reversed at the top of the screen, a partial of them, this book's pages will flip on alternating lines from the first. Lines: 7 to 11. Shot 4: A new table, just one book (now a paperback), a different ashtray and coffee cup. Cigarette will
