Step 1 - Introduction

For my animation i am doing a mixture of different styled animations involving rotoscoping and stop-motion. I am doing this because it seems a little bit challenging to me, i like the idea of having to animate and draw the faces of the ones i care most about, then making a montage about them. I was influenced by the 2 linked TV shows "16 and pregnant" and "Teen Mom"to do this styled animation.  But what really pushed me to do this was when i watched the human skateboard movie clip where many multiple photos aer taken with milliseconds of each other and are put together to make the illusion that those photos look like they are moving like a film, the music video of the sketches, very detailed sketches which move along like a cartoon, so watching those two movies pushed me to think about the picture taking and sketching combined, so now thats what i have in mind. So pretty much, my animation will begin as a sketch, fade into a realistic photo, a few photos will appear as the illusion that it is moving, fade back into sketch on the last picture, have  a little fun with the sketch animation, and will continue on with the next range of photos. animation because i wanted to make this a little tribute to all the people i love and all they've done for me, so this is dedicated to them. I didn't want to do any other animation because i don't have a can take a thousand photos in a matter of minutes, i didn't want sticky notes because it was ore time consuming and i didn't want to waste paper plus, if i was to make one tiny mistake, it could ruin my entire animation, so i stuck with what i like, wanting to draw and detail faces of those i care about as a sketch animation with some photos of them to show the good times we share.
