Another Semester, Another Film

Wow, here we are again. Crazy right?

Anyway, for this year's film, I was thinking of doing a film with little vignettes/animations that all have to do with a theme. My theme is going to be sticky. I have a huge list of stuff that I could consider sticky, and I'll keep building on it to see what I think is the most solid.

Here's a picture of the growing list of things that could be considered sticky:


I also thought I'd set up a mood board here for look/style/etc.

Look:


I'd love to achieve the smoothness of Tako Faito, or at least the coloring style. I would really like to focus more on the animation since I'm doing more something like vignettes than anything else.

The transitions would be metamorphosis definitely, but the question is what kind of metamorphosis. There's the Black or White music video metamorphosis (skip to 5:26):
 

Where stuff recedes and adds as necessary, but the base is still there. Or the metamorphosis where the transition is something coming out of the previous object/thing:

Or it goes from identifiable shape to identifiable shape with splotches/other shapes in between:

I think I'm just going to have to assess what type I'll do based on production time and the look I'm going for. As for coloring, I also kinda wanna go with the styles seen above, the "lineless shapes unless they overlap" style.

Speaking of production time, I need to make a schedule/work log. So here it is for now, I'll be sure to change the page link for the log soon. Anyway, that's all for now. More to come soon.
