Aquatic Andy Animation
This animation was part of my methodology project at university, I produced a pilot film for my idea however the main focus was on the pre production elements in animation and so you will be able to see an in depth process from start to finish, including character and background designs etc.

This is my final animation, it is only a pilot test so the real animation would be around 15-25 minutes long.

Final Touches
This project has been great to work on and now is unfortunately coming to an end, however it means that you get to see the final animation which I hope you are all looking forward to!
Before putting all of my animations together to give me my finished 15 sec test/pilot film I had to draw my foreground images in flash, this included , palm trees, bushes etc, I also had to add some scenery animation to give the animation my intended real to life cartoon effect. Below are some images of the foreground drawings, done in flash and some videos of the scenery animation.
Enjoy

everything additionally drawn in this video was completed using flash.
Post 6 - Animation Timing Sheet
Timing sheet
this is the timing sheet used for my final animation, It allowed me to time my animation and allowed me to understand how everything needed to be drawn to give the animation my desired effect.
If you watch the movie and then come back and look at this sheet it will be clear what happens and when, you will also be able to see what frame a particular piece of animation starts and ends on.

These videos show the development of my Lightbox tests, the first image was a basic movement of the character, as you can see it is a very quick unpolished animation, this allowed me to then identify any problems and re draw them.
As you can see each animation has a slight alteration particularly on the arms and fins as it was very important to get a sense of weight and life to the animation.

Final Animatic for opening sequence
This animatic is of the first scene that will be shown at the beginning of each tv show, as you can see my research has helped with the development of the idea to allow me to produce a final guideline before final animation takes place.
The pictures below are story boards of the first tv show, The Sound Of The Sea, these will be used to produce my final animation.
shots 1-4
shots 5-13
shots 13-15
Cut away scene shots 16-21

Final Character Drawing Of Aquatic Andy
Now that I have finalised Andy the Storyboarding and animation process can begin!
Below is an image of Andy's house/beach shack where most of the TV shows will begin, I travelled to the Caribbean a few years ago and loved the way they coloured their buildings and shacks. I think that this has had an influence on my building designs.
One of the backgrounds that I have made for my final animation was heavily influence by james bond rock which I visited on a trip to thailand. The rock is in Ko Samui and also has a twin rock in Pi Pi island (Pi Pi Island rock is the actual one shot in the james bond movie) below you can see a comparison between my own photograph and my final Background design.
I tend to incorporate my personal experiences with my own work as I can allow others to view sights that I have seen and give them the ability to experience my own personal interests which I think gives the show a personal touch.
