I did research today and I found a lot of useful pictures and information, I then started looking at my idea’s generation.
Date:13/11/13
I finished my idea’s generation early in the lesson as I had done a lot it last week. This meant I could get a head start on my planning. Doing the planning was one
of the hardest bits as I didn’t want to plan something I would do or that was way too simple to get me a decent grade.

Continuing on my planning I came up with the idea of an asteroid coming down to earth and crashing, leaving the E4 symbol in the creator. So I decided to start
making all the pieces I would need. This took me into the making.

Drawing the images I was going to use on adobe software illustrator. I began drawing out the meteor and then started the flame trail behind it. When I finished
the flame trail. I started making the scene for the first setting, using a black back ground and the star tool I created space. I then traced out a picture of the earth
and placed that in my space picture I remembered to put them all on different layers so that they didn’t get stuck and also when it came down to the producing I
could use more effects. I then started creating my second setting. This would contain a blue background with clouds and 3 or 4 significant building that the
asteroid would fly past.

Finishing my second setting I began creating my 3rd
and final. This was a setting on a park, it was where the asteroid was going crash and leave the crater. Within
this I added many bushes and people with paths and roads too. Making sure they were on separate layers. I copied and pasted this scene and added a massive
creator in the middle of the park, using loads of different coloured browns i made it look like it was full of mud, I then added the E4 Logo in the middle of the
creator.

It was now time I started editing all my layers and turn them into a proper moving picture. By doing this I uploaded all my layers onto adobe after effects. This
will make the editing a lot easyer and a lot better. I start off by finding my first layer and add them from there, making sure I edit them as I go along. By using a

With all the slides onto aftereffects, I carried on editing. Making sure everything was accounted for and they were all in there correct place and had the correc
edit, I rendered it up loaded it onto YouTube and added it to my blog.
