Digital Animation
Kieran Brennan
Agartha
The purpose behind my project was to give myself an opportunity to experiment with replicating a number of different animations and artistic styles, try out a range of animation, music production and FX production software and experiment with different media in conjunction with animation such as live action film, composited VFX and video synthesis.
From these experiments, I would then apply what I found to be most visually interesting or unique to a short story format, with the intention of creating an animated short film from this. I would use these experiments as a way to develop my already existing skills in animation and develop new skills, learning how to adapt to different styles that I am unfamiliar with and applying them to the short film format and experimenting with replicating different styles of music, and experimenting with different features in music like mixing analog recording with digital, using odd time signatures, implementing microtones and working with a range of effects, with the intention of creating a musical piece.
