Project Treatment

You will spend 30 minutes browsing various websites and looking at examples of cityscape, architecture, and still life photos. During this time you should be brainstorming what you would like to shoot and when.

What will you shoot for your still life picture? When will you shoot this?
What will you shoot for your architecture picture? When will you shoot these shots?
Where will you shoot your cityscape pictures?

Digital Photo 2: Still Life, Architecture, and City Scape

Still Life Photography
Your next assignment is very large in scope and includes a variety of picture styles.
I am including still life, architecture, and city scapes as one assignment because many of you will be in a variety of places for spring break. You will shoot contact sheets for all three categories. However, in what order you choose to do shoot them is up to you.

Please get in your groups and start planning your production.

1. Please use TEXT EDIT and turn in the following information in the STAFF server:
  • Group Member names
  • A four to five sentence description of your animation project. 
  • Please tell me what special "tricks" you will create to make your animation look interesting. What will your characters do that they can't do in real life?
  • Also, let me know if you are using props or if the characters are wearing costumes. Who will wear what outfits?
  • Most importantly please tell me the story from beginning to end.
  • What type of music will you use? Why?

2. Create a shot sheet. Write down the different shots you will take and the order you will take them. List the locations as well.
