ALL TRANSITIONS ARE IN RED!
1.
I have an idea for my film to start off as a book on a old
fashioned desk, with old fashioned utensils and various bits and bobs on it. I
will animate the book opening and then the screen will zoom in onto the first
page of the book.
TRANSITION = Zooming in on
the book.
2.
Once the screen has zoomed in onto the book page, "Georgia
O'Keeffe" will appear with a image of her and O'Keeffe's date of birth
and date of death. I think one at a time the items will fade out. I think i will
do this by changing the Opacity of the writing and image from 100% down to 0%.
TRANSITION = The screen will zoom in on the image of O’Keeffe where I wll make the
image double over to create a over
3.
The page that i explained above will fade out and leave a
similar colour solid background on scene three. On this scene i have decided to
make a abstract New Mexican flag. I will have to Photoshop an actual flag so i
can get the actual design of the flag from it. I think i will make the flag
symbol (red) so small you cannot actually see it, and ill make it zoom in on to
the onto the screen where it will turn from red to black. The back circle of
the Mexican flag symbol will line up with the next scene. The writing i will
include will be something like "New Mexico had a strong influence on
Georgia O'Keeffe's work."
TRANSITION = flicks straight onto the next sceen
4.
The next scene will be a close up camera - the circle of the
lens on the camera will line up with the back circle of the New Mexican flag.
The camera will cover the whole scene. The flash on the camera will flash - i
will key frame a bright rectangle in top of the flash to make it look as if the
camera is flashing at the audience.
TRANSITION = the flash covers the whole screen in white which is the
background colour for the next scene.
5.
I want to mention Stieglitz in the film quickly, in the design i
mentioned that i want something romantic, so i think i will use flowers.. i
think probably falling flowers thats curve and sway in a light wind. I will
have a white background, nice and clean looking and i will probably make the
flowers 3D to make it look good. I have actually been looking online and found
some helpful tutorials to assist me when tackling the moving flowers. I will
have a low opacity image of Stieglitz appear and dissolve again on screen and
have writing like "O'Keeffe married an American Photographer, Alfred
Stieglitz." Then everything will dissolve and i will be left with a black
white screen.
TRANSITION = The 3D flowers fade out and reveal the white background
and the next scene starts on a 0%
opacity and after 2 seconds reaches 100% opacity.
6.
The 3D flowers will link up with this scene - i will introduce
some of O'Keeffe's floral painting work. The plan is to insert a Jpeg and have
some basic written information around like like "O'Keeffe loved bright
colourful flowers, which is what she is widely known for."
TRANSITION = The scene will zoom in on the centre of the floral
painting which happens to be black. The screen turns back and then fades out to
reveal the scene underneath.
7.
I will then have almost a mini mood board of O'Keeffe's floral
paintings and put them in a order where i think it is appropriate. I am
thinking i will make some of the paintings one by one enlarge so the audience
can get a better look at the detail of the images. The images will then retract
to their original size and the next image will do the same.
TRANSITION = The last enlarged (pink) flower enlarges enough to
cover the whole scene, I will lower the opacity to reveal a pink solid background,
and then lower the opacity of the pink to reveal a black background. The black
background then lowers its opacity to reveal the next scene. Or I will make it
flick like a page of a book.
8.
From listening to a film where O'Keeffe was being interviewed she
said that "When flowers were scares i would look for bones and
skulls, id paint them." So i will make the screen go black and make a
3D skull which i will animate on screen. It would be different process and
technique to the book and the flower though. I'm not too sure whether i would
actually be able to make it in time, so i could just be a Jpeg of a image i
make. People associate skulls and bones with death, so the blackness around the
skull with represent the norm. However in a film clip O'Keeffe says "The bones
do not symbolise death to me. They are lively, they please me. And i enjoy them
very much in relation to the sky." Therefore, i will turn the
black screen with the skull on it into a bright white screen. It should
transform the way that people look at the skull just by changing the background
colour.
TRANSITION = The skull scene will fade out by and leave a white page
underneath. Directly underneath the skull I will put the start ‘O’Keeffe’s
paintings.
9.
To link on from the skull i will then have three images of some
skull paintings O'Keeffe made. These will appear back to back, they will fade
in and out to have a smooth movement and will have white space to the sides of
each image. I will probably use the quote i mentioned above onto these three
slides - i will split the quite into three parts. "The bones do not
symbolise death to me," - "They are very lively,
they please me" - "and i enjoy them very much in relation to the sky"
TRANSITION = I will zoom into the last skull painting on the scene,
I will zoom in onto the sky and fade the image out, so it leaves the 3D
landscape behind. Which will be zoomed in onto the sky
10.
'SKY..." This will then link onto her landscape work. I
will maybe make a 3D landscape from one of her painting she made which will be
zoomed in looking at the sky. It will zoom out and reveal the 3D landscape
below. Once zoomed out to so the 3D painting fits the screen i will lower the
opacity to 0% and have a solid white background behind.
TRANSITION = I will use a page turn to make it look like the page
has turned. Would be a clean easy to do transition.
11.
This scene will start off with a white background, like the
skull paintings i will have three images of O'Keeffe's landscape paintings
which will do the same as the skull paintings, they will fade in and out and
the next image will follow. "When i got to New Mexico that was mine.
As soon as i saw it, that was my Country."
TRANSITION = Another page turn
12.
The page will turn, and the original paper which i used for the
opening book will be the background and i will insert a pre composition of
O'Keeffe talking about her work with her voice over. The clip i have is 1
minute 30 seconds long, but i really want to include it, its really fun and
sweet.
TRANSITION =Lower opacity to leave the background image (book
paper).
13.
I will fade the film clip out when it has finished and on the
same page i will write something like "One of the most important American
artists of the Twenty-first Century. Georgia O'Keeffe." I will probably
have a image of O'Keeffe, by making it look like it is seeping into the paper.
I will probably use the one of O'Keeffe where she is older - i have is on my
mood board.
TRANSITION = Just a normal zoom as explained below.
14.
The page will zoom out and the audience will see that they were
basically reading a digital book the whole time. It will end on the original
starting design with the red book on top of the old fashioned desk.
TRANSITION = Page turn
15.
I will then make the layer flick up like it is from a book, - i
think there is a page turn affect in after effects with i could use. I will use
the same page design that i used for the other book.. i will have some hand
written type saying something like "And there is so much more, Georgia
O'Keeffe, a true inspiration."
TRANSITION = Zoom out.
16.
I will then let the page fall down and have other pieces of
paper fold down on top to make it look like a thick book or booklet of work,
and i think i will use a scanned image of my student planner and write my name
on that. - I will let the book zoom out and let it fall onto a photography of
my desk.
