Notes from 2nd November session

Notes

• Viewed Matt's space animatic. Great use of highly atmospheric sounds (including the 'sound of Jupiter' to underlay the visuals).
• Covered further technical topics for production:
  - Introduction of cutout technique and tweening in Flash with Allison and use of Photoshop layers.
  - Rotoscoping and masking in AfterEffects with Dan, linking these techniques to the moving photography work of Jamie Beck and Kevin Burg.
  - Aspect ratio choice and overlapping cycled layers using boils with Matt.
• Briefly covered website layout using tables within dreamweaver and html with Katie.
