Critique by Henry Hsu:
- Hard to tell it's a countdown or to see the numbers
- Kind of dark: since it took longer to film than you originally thought, try artificial light source instead
- The pencil crayons constantly moving are drawing attention away from the circle itself, it might not be that necessary in this movie since the counting leader is the thing of focus here
- The number only shows for about a millisecond so it's easy to miss, maybe hold it on the number for a moment
- 3 and 2 don't seem to be consistent with the speed of the other numbers... might need to pace it
CREATIVE BRIEF:
Potential Title: Spotty Colours
Overview: I'd like to aim for the effect of colouring in a colour blind circle, where the number gradually becomes evident as the circle becomes shaded in. I'm planning to use pencil crayons as my medium, with the usage of different colour combinations. I may choose to do analygous or complementary colours.
Audience/Context: It must be easy for a general audience to differentiate the colours and see the number being filled in. There isn't a specific age group in mind.
Key Message: I would like the audience to pay attention to the colours of the numbers in comparison to the background, and also the gradual construction of the number.
Content Planning: This project will be generated with the usage of a camcorder. I will record myself colouring in the colour blind circles, and then fast forward it in Final Cut Pro. Another option is to take still images every second and compose a stop motion project.
