I have received have now received my feedback and have met with my tutor to discuss where to take my project and the criticisms of it.
I have chosen to use rotoscoping as the style and method used to create my animation because I believe it enhances the narrative and theme within the project. The use of animation with real photography helps to blend the digital with the real, thus emphasising the virtual and real world blurring which occurs within the narrative.
The feedback that I have received on this aspect of my project is that the rotoscope tests I handed in where seen to be very affective but it has been pointed out that this is a time consuming process which means my storyboard may have to be altered.
- I am now going to portray a majority of the story through close up shots of her using her phone or laptop at different times with focus being the screen. The screens will be animated to depict the social network and the ongoing bullying. There will still be a few shots with her animated and the pivotal scene where she changes to an animated character will remain. This should help speed the narrative up along with making my project time scale more realistic and achievable.
- I have also taken the feedback on board and for now I am not focusing on the suicide dream scene as this is not necessarily needed if I run out of time. If I am doing okay for time I will place it in as I do think it is a good part of the narrative considering many would consider this option. Bullying makes people think that life is not worth living.
