Individual Flipbook - Green Lantern

For our individual flip book I had the idea of doing it around one of my favourite superhero characters, Green Lantern. My idea was pretty basic. The concept was of a person walking down the street. The road littered with rubble, smashed cars and fires, the city is destroyed and burning down. The person continues to walk closer and closer to the city. Until he suddenly turns around and the audience sees that he is holding a Lantern and wearing a ring.

The camera work for this is a mixture of close-ups, long shots and medium shots. The first shot is  close-up of the person’s feet as he walking down the street. The camera is tracking him. As the person turns around the camera panels up him revealing him to be holding a Lantern in his left hand. He slowly lifts up his right hand to the camera revealing that he is wearing a ring. The camera panels in slowly closer in to the ring where it finishes.

However changes where made, one of them being the background. Due to time constrains I chose to get rid of the background it became a plain white background. This was a big change in my animation and one I did not what to make but had to if I wanted to complete it. Also my character would be a generic person with know really facial features and no hair.

The Parkour Flipbook Animation was a big influence, going in to this task. It was  new, creative and original.
