Background-Park
(Ellis: the same problem - too complicated, disorderly and confused. try to draw the easy graphic picture or shape and set the right color scheme. Also decrease the grayscale of background. PS. the public cannot see your swf file)
(小漩: Thank you for your reply. I try to draw the pictures in a more simple way, but I would like to keep the color scheme as it could show the sunshine of daytime.)
(Ellis: Please don't mind, but i think the color scheme has problem. For example, the color of tree's highlight is not suitable, it would not appear. you can keep the concept of sunshine mood, but please do more layer and adjust the grayscale and choose the suitable color.)
Dear groupmates,
I have created the Park backgroud, please take a look and give me feedback or comment.
(if you cannot watch the SWF, Please CLICK the movie!)

Please see it and capture what you feel it is amazing.
We will discuss it at 9th meeting at next monday (28June).

PS. And I have found many video for our character movement and style. Have a nice weekend XD.
"That is a very interesting reference and I think it serves as a good
reference. From the reference, I would suggest that you can animate most of
the arm actions by classic tweening the arm symbol, while it has more
complicated distortions, you can do it by drawing frame by frame. Try to
work out with the director and animation director, and see which scene in
the story would be most suitable to apply such movement. Should you have
more questions, please let me know."

Animation design reference
We have studied in today's meeting(24/6) for the motion and gusture's reference.
creativity/animation event
Our group joined a creativity/animation talk in Disneyland Hotel on last Friday.
The speaker is Mr. Patrick Lin, Director of Photography – Camera, Pixar Animation Studios.
Patrick shared views on his creativity process and personal career development path.
After the talk, we know that the story is the soul of the animation rather than technical.
Also, we know more skills of making animation process. It is useful for our future.
Mr. Patrick Lin!
our group!
take photo with Patrick!

It can also add the video sources on it.

Presentation
After the presentation, we can improve our presentation skill on next time.
-more eyes contact
-use short sentence
-don’t speak the script directly
Beside this, we know that we may waste time because we are not developing the story together.(But we chosen the concept1 and develop it already.)
-avoid the character turn around
-use more 34fp of the character >> more comfortable
-use outline to hide the joints e.g. more tapering or use different border
-can use brush to outline
Concept 4 - Amazing venture
Guys,
After the presentation, please upload the sketch and design to blog.
