my pointview and commons on a reference book

The Complete Digital Animation Course

--- Andy Wyatt    

pubilshed in 2010 by Thams & Hudson Ltd. in U.K.

As recently reading about my research, and also basic on PGDip requestment, this book give me a good guide and make me to clarify those idea on my own, my research is how to make an animation goes to funny, i want through this research to sum up and common the process of  an animation whatever you use which kind of  animation techniques,the process of animation making is the same.


as follows, i will metion some aspects which i consider the basic elements to make an animation.

and i will give my opinion on how to make an fascinating animation, basic on those classifies.

• pre-production basics
• ideas and concepts
• story research
• reference

above 4 aspects is most original things when you make animation, when you finish this 4 things that means you have strong background to creat an animation.

• scriptwriting
• the storyboard
• film language
• concept design
• environment design
• character design

above 6 aspects is pre-setting generally, to make an animation, it depends on quality of work, because some work just make by one person, some work  product by animation studio,or company, so that is why the process has little bit different,  according to the method which you will choose, also arising the distinctions.but much of a muchness.

• Mini Bible
• Organization

For this two classifies, you need to make a Mini Bible and Organization , that was Andy Wyatt metion at this book, mini bible at this book is described that "If you are hoping to get funding for or interest in your idea, you will need an exciting presentation of the project: the '' mini bible''. ''  (AndyWyatt ,2010) . About Organization " Even the shortest of animation projects involves a small army of artists, thechnicians and performers. The person who plan, motivates and makes it all happen is the producer." (Andy Wyatt, 2010). I believe that mini bible just a one of the way to get funding, but if you just want make an animation by yourself and you have money support your work, mini bible is a good way to clear up and review a work so that remind you at all the time.

•  Animation techniques

those classifies most come from this book,as my pointview i changed some words, but the basic theory is much of a muchness.

my research based on this book, i will extend each part of classify and intergrate with other book ,because this book just a frame of process of an animation,if you want make a hight quality and attractive animation, you need research each part of element, so reading extensively and intergrate the information is necessary. If possible, when i finish the research i will publish it , i think it maybe could provide some useful information for animatior who wants product an animation individual behavior. why i want to make this kind of book? First, because when i was a beginner at this area, i try to found lots information, but i never got a orderliness thought, maybe because without such good book to read.  Second, accroding those years study, process of animation is still discovered by me,except doing drawing and some of multimedia work. So I will wrote it as soon as possible.
