Unit 64 Evaluation – Motion Graphics
HA 1 –
The first task of this unit was to research and define some key motion graphics terms such as pixel,
resolution and screen ratios. I found this task easy and completed it quickly. After researching key
terms we had to explore the internet to find and give examples of the different types of motion
graphics, these included Interactive DVD menus, Web banners and Idents/Stings. After evidencing 6
different types of motion graphics on my blog the final task of HA1 was to choose 3 recent examples
of one type of motion graphic andanalyse the characteristics and technical considerations of each
and compare and contrast the examples. I choose to analyse the title and credit sequences for 3
different horror films as I had an idea already about the codes and conventions that horror movies
follow. I struggled a bit with this task as I didn’t know all the technical terms that I know now after
completing this assignment.
HA 2 –
Task 1 was introducing us to Adobe Illustrator. On this task I had to create/trace some images in
Illustrator. This was to familiarise ourselves with the softwareas we would need it later in the course.
I struggled with this task at first as I had never used anything like Adobe Illustrator before. However I
managed to complete the task to the best of my ability. Following this we were then tasked with
creating a basic logo using illustrator.
Next was Task 2 which was the Ideas Generation stage. We had to sketch out 20 abstract colour
symbols that could be possible ideas for our logo. This task did not take long as I am artistic and
quickly completed it.
Task 3 was the client briefing. The college sports company visited our lesson and pitched an idea to
us for a new Salford City Sports Academy logo. We had to make notes on what type of logo they
required and we had to pay attention to specific details they implemented such as; the logo had to
appeal to ALL sports categories and not just one specific sport, also it had to include the text ‘sports
Academy’.
After the client
briefing was Task 4.
This was a relatively
simple task and
required us to
research other sports
logos and evidence
them on our blog in
hope to inspire our
final logo outcome.
Task 5 was to use Adobe Illustrator to experiment
with different symbols and fonts in order to select
one for suitable for the creation of a new SCC
Academy logo.
For Task 6 we had to finalise our logo design this was
simple and didn’t take long and is evidenced on my
blog.
Task 7 was the most complex task of Unit64. We
had tocomplete Adobe After Effects exercises
designed to give you an understanding of how to
create vector artwork. These consisted of The Devil
Rides Out Tutorial which was a step by step guide of
the application’s interface and tools.Next we had to
combine live video footage and still imagerywith
this Gnome exercise.
Task 8 was relatively straight forward and it
was to produce a story board using Adobe
Illustrator for my 30 second treatment with the
supplied logos and template.
Based on our story board and treatment we had to complete Task 9 which
was to prepare the logo artwork and build the sequence using Adobe
After Effects. I struggled with this task and needed my tutor to go through
it again with me as my first composition failed. I made adjustments and
edited my storyboard in order to create a new treatment. This was the
first time I had used Adobe After Effects and i found it difficult to use at
first but I finally got the hang of it and managed to create a working
motion graphic.We then had to produce a second version that is
composited with the supplied video footage.
