poster
Chiaroscuro: the use of light and dark to create the illusion of
three-dimensional volume on a flat surface.
To create an artistic lightning:
-
increase dramatic tension
-
create sensational effect
-
pull your attention to a subject in an intense way

create a tasteful composition(negative vs positive
space)

Figure 2.4: Movie scene sources from Google
I decided to draw the movie called 'The Greatest Showman'
because it is one of my favourite movie. I am choosing the
scene when the girl (Zendaya) and the boy (Zac Efron) has
forced to break up because of their different social class.
I think this scene is so touching and I like the song
(rewrite the stars)so much.
2. Sketches
I sketch it using ipad and I think the original scene is a
bit too simple so I change it to the girl sitting on the
ring and the guy is pulling it down.

Then , based on my sketches, I traced it in Adobe Illustrator.

After done doing the poster, I can start proceed to make the
animating part, first, we have to copy layer by layer from
Adobe Illustrator to Adobe Photoshop and then name it properly
so that we can recognize it.

The concept I tried to make is the girl who sitting on the
ring will moving down slowly and the man will be pulling the
ropes. Then, I also tried to make the stage light getting
brighter and brighter slowly in this gif. And the title and
will also appear slowly.

To make the effects, I tried to make what Ms Jennifer taught
in the class, I added some keyframes on the layer 'light' and
slightly change the opacity from 0 to 100 so that the light
appear from dark to bright.

Then, I want to make the girl moving down slowly and what I
did to make this effects is I duplicate the layers and
change the position slowly so that at the end it will be
like the girl moving down. I would say that this progress is
the hardest part because I need to make sure that the
position wasn't changing too much or else it will be
weird.

FEEDBACK
Week 6: Ms Anis said that my heading is too big. Overall is
good but just need to figure out how do make it animate. Ms
Anis also reminds me to put the log line of the movie.
REFLECTIONS
I think that this task is my favorite project so far. We are able to design a poster on the movie that we like. I also learnt that minimalist poster should simplified all the component but It should also brings out the most important element that people will understand what movie it is after seeing the poster. Although my animated gif seems to be simple but it also took me some times to complete it. But I was quite satisfied with the result and I believed that sometimes less is more.
