Today I had a interim critique on my flash animation. So far I have created my opening titles and one of my accident scenes. The feedback I received was positive about the style and character design. I was told to continue and to look ways of creating my button. This really helped me carry on and gave me some new ideas.

Also I have sent my CV off to design companies looking for a work placement.

I have started to create my storyboard for my DIY animation. I have decided to start with an opening scene with a play button so it is interactive with the viewer. This is going to be in the collage style I have created my images in.

I decided to show clips of my hand-drawn people in the statisticly most common accidents that I have found during the research I have gathered. This will be the main focus of my animation.

 

Character design - I have started to create some designs and textures for my flash animation on DIY accidents. I wanted to create a hand-rendered, hand-drawn, collage style for my animation as I feel this really suits the topic. I am going to create a collage style but layering different textures and drawings. Here are some of the images I am going to use.
