How to use this booklet

You will need to complete every page of this booklet, and all sections / questions
required.
Assessment criteria for Distinction grade;
LO2
Plans will show a full consideration of movement and continuity, perspective, point of view,
transitions and special effects.
Precise and workable planning of timing and synchronisation to a soundtrack will be
produced. It will be clear at this stage, from the documentation, what the finished piece will
look and sound like.
Learners will follow industry conventions and terminology used in storyboard production
correctly.
Plans for the construction of models, sets and props will be realistic and clear.
Drawings, script and storyboard will all show a creative interpretation of the idea.
LO3:
The documentation linked to the production will be full and detailed and there will be
evidence that the production management and scheduling of the project has been effective
and carried out in a professional manner. The techniques used in the production of the work
are likely to be related to an understanding of current trends in the industry.
Both LO2 and LO3

In all practical activity learners will be capable of working autonomously and effectively. They
will work on their own initiative, will not need constant support or supervision, will give the
work their full commitment, work positively and cooperatively with others, and meet
deadlines. In other words, they will have the kind of self-management skills that would be
expected of them in a professional context. Note also that this criterion should not be taken
to mean that learners do not seek advice or that they work without discussing things with
their tutor, but rather that they are not dependent upon the support of others and that when
they take advice they weigh it carefully for themselves.
Planning
Brainstorm / mind map (add extra pages if necessary)
Attach a 400 word treatment of your idea
My idea for a TV Ident would be to represent three different sections that Vibe Productions
specify in. these three would be chat shows, music videos and documentaries. The reason
for this is that I believe these are the three most important things that Vibe Productions
offer and produce. The reason for choosing a TV Ident is to promote the company that is
Vibe Productions. I believe that my choices for promoting Vibe Productions will be justified
because of their content. The way Im laying out the ident will be in such a way that you are
able to understand what topic we are promoting, but also get a storyline on a couple of the
subjects that Im covering. The first 10 seconds will start with a documentary being shown.
This documentary will be of my two characters, V and P, looking through the plants
together. I will use different camera angles to make the plants look bigger than what they
actually are, and I will have to make the characters the right size so they arent to
overpowering. The middle section will be me showing a chat show. Again the same
characters will be used and they will be the main focus. V will be interviewing P and I shall
re-draw out the characters and have those wearing suits to create a professional feel about
the show. I may have voices in the background cutting in and out so that the audience have
a slight overview of what Vibe Productions produce. In the final section I shall create a music
video. My idea for this is to have a dark room and flashing lights going on and off. I wont
just have the characters of V and P in this, I will create other characters using the remaining
letters in Vibe Productions. I will use quick changing camera angles to create the feeling of
dancing and fast movement.
How will you meet the requirements of your brief?

I shall meet the requirements of my brief by following not only the guidelines set in place
already, but the guidelines that I have set myself. These requirements are; the ident must
be animated. I shall meet this requirement as I am making the characters myself. As
shown in my mind map, I will use the letters V and P to promote Vibe Productions. The
second requirement I shall meet is the three topics that I will cover. These are
documentaries, music videos and chat shows. Again, as I explained in my mind map, you
can there see the ideas I have for these 3 topics and how I plan to make them. The final
requirement I will meet is the frames per second ratio. I have chosen to have a minimum of
25 shots per second. This will allow the animation to flow more easily and have an overall
better outcome.
Risk assessment: Are there any health and safety issues you may encounter?
There are definitely a couple of safety issues that I have to bear in mind when
making my animation. One of these is when I'm filming outside for my documentary
section. This safety issues will tend to be with the weather. If for some reason I have
to film in the rain or during a storm, then I run the risk of hyperthermia or being
struck by lightning. The weather could also be effective if I shoot my animation on a
warm day. I could potentially suffer from dehydration or heat stroke if I stay in the
sun for too long.

Discuss any legal issues you may face. Eg; sound, plagiarism, age restrictions
The only legal issues I may face are to do with the music. During my third section on
the TV Ident I am promoting a music video for vibe productions. During this, I shall
have light music over the background. To deal with my problem, I may have to right
an email to the producers of the song to have their confirmation/ permission for me
to use their song. There should be no problem with age restrictions ask am not
including offensive language or behavior in my TV Ident. I feel by not including
swearing I can advertise and promote my Ident to a much larger audience.
Use of possible formats

Circle which of the following formats your animation will take;
Stop-frame techniques
Time lapse photography
Plasticine animation
Claymation
Using found objects
Modelling
puppetry
Combined formats

Why are you using that particular format?
I am using this particular format as I felt these suited the strongest idea that I had. The stop
frame technique will be used as I am taking photographs. This is where you move your
object very slightly every time and take a photograph after every movement. The plasticine
will come into place on my individual characters. I will most likely make their arms and legs
out of plasticine. Next I will be using found objects. This could be from using Lego, to
everyday household objects. I will definitely be using plants as part of my documentary
piece, and in the chat show I will most probably make a chair and table for them to use.
However, I am still not too sure what material I shall be using to make the table and chairs.
What are the different possibilities you could explore using this format?
The advantages I feel I have by choosing this type of format is the movement I can
create within the characters. If I was to use a still, hard object, then I could only do so
much movement with it. However, by choosing to create my characters, and using a
material which allows be to bend them to any shape I wish, I can therefore express
more emotion and expression within the characters.
What are the limitations of using this format? (i.e what problems/ obstacles might you
have?)
One of the problems that stands out during the process of my animation will be to do with my
first section. This section is on a documentary and will be set in the plants. The problem I will
face is to do with the plants themselves. It is more than likely that it will be a windy day when
I film outside, so the plants are going to sway from side to side. This will effect my animation
because every picture I take, the flowers will be in completely different positions. One way I
could try to fix this is to attach string to the bushes and plants to try and limit their movement.
What I don't want is lots of random movement from the plants so that my animation looks
disjointed and unorganized.

What imaginative or inventive animations have you seen which use this format?
Add in links and screen shots of three examples of animations using this format.

Subject
What will the subject of your animation be?
In my animation I will be covering 3 different subjects. These 3 subjects are documentaries,
chat shows and music videos. The reason for choosing these three is that I feel they are the
most important topics that Vibe Productions cover. I also chose these three because I felt I
had the strongest ideas in these departments. The other two options I could have chosen
were radio drama and TV advert. I felt it would be difficult to create and scene in the ten
second available for each slot, so therefore I left them out.

Storyline
Describe the storyline of your animation. What events will happen to your characters?
The first 10 seconds will start with a documentary being shown. This documentary will be of
my two characters, V and P, looking through the plants together. I will use different camera
angles to make the plants look bigger than what they actually are, and I will have to make
the characters the right size so they arent to overpowering.
The middle section will be me showing a chat show. Again the same characters will be used
and they will be the main focus. V will be interviewing P and I shall re-draw out the
characters and have those wearing suits to create a professional feel about the show. I may
have voices in the background cutting in and out so that the audience have a slight overview
of what Vibe Productions produce.
In the final section I shall create a music video. My idea for this is to have a dark room and
flashing lights going on and off. I wont just have the characters of V and P in this, I will
create other characters using the remaining letters in Vibe Productions. I will use quick
changing camera angles to create the feeling of dancing and fast movement.
Characters
What characters will be in your animation?
The two main characters that I will be making are in the shape of the letters V and P. The
reason for this is that I am promoting a company called Vibe Productions. The letters will be
used in every scene for my TV Ident as they play the most important roles.
The character of 'V' will be the main person in the documentary. He will be the one looking
around the plants and trying to investigate a little. In the chat show, I will also be using him
as the main presenter. He would be the one dressed in a suit and looking smart. Finally, in
the music video, both characters will be dancing around the other remaining letters from the
words 'Vibe Productions'.
Character 'P' will have more of a backseat role across the whole TV Ident. With the
documentary, 'P' will be 'Vs' assistant. He will follow him round, and hand him tools and
devices. In the chat show he will be the guest on the show. I will show him entering, and he
will be dressed in casual clothing to make him look like a celebrity. In the music video, both
V and P will be dancing, as explained above.

Add in images and drawings/ sketches of what they will look like.
What will they be made of?

Character V and P
Both of these will be made firstly of card. I will draw them out several times for each scene.
For instance, I will have to draw out a plain V and P for the documentary, but I will have to
draw them out again wearing clothes for the chat show.
After they have been drawn on the card, I will back them onto cardboard to give them more
stability. For their legs and arms, I will use lolly pop sticks for the legs as these can support
the weight required, and I will be using something of around the same material, I.e. Cocktail
sticks for their arms.
Movement of characters
How are you going to make your characters move?

To make my characters move I have backed them onto a cardboard backing. This allows me
to make them bend in any direction, but keep their shape at the same time. For the arms
and legs, I will be using soft wood. This would be lollypop sticks and cocktail sticks. These
aren't quite the best material, but they allow stability and strength to keep my characters
upright.
What is the purpose of an armature?

The purpose of an armature is to add stability to your animated characters. For instance,
when creating a character out of plasticine, people will use metal wires within their
characters to allow them to stand up right. These are usually within the arms and legs of the
character, as this is were they show the most emotion and most movement.
Will you use them for your characters?

I will be using armature for my characters. The reason is to add stability and structure to
them, so that they can stand up right. My characters bodies will be made of card and
cardboard, whilst their legs will be made of lollypop sticks. Once Ive connected the lollypop
sticks, I shall cover them in plasticine.
If so, how will you make it?

The reason is to add stability and structure to them, so that they can stand up right. My
characters bodies will be made of card and cardboard, whilst their legs will be made of
lollypop sticks. Once Ive connected the lollypop sticks, I shall cover them in plasticine.
Mood board
Create a mood board showing what lookyour animation will have. Add images showing
ideas of mise-en-scene, characters, costumes and colours that will be present in the
different shots.
Sets / backgrounds
Will your set be;
A three wall set
A blue/green screen
An existing location
A Combination of two or more of the above
Draw sketches of how your sets/backgrounds will look. Add in labels to your diagrams and
details of locations / lighting etc.

Add in photographs of your sets/backgrounds.
Audio and Soundtrack
What audio will you have for your animation?
Complete the sound list, detailing what sounds you will use, where you will source them,
what equipment you will need to record them and when you will use them in your animation.
You will need to design your own soundtrack. You cannot use copyrighted music, and it
must be more than simply adding a track.
What actions will need sound effects?
Think of the scenes in your animation. Each scene should have different sounds/music to
give information about the mood / emotions of the characters.

Vibe Productions as a whole
What forms of animation might they already watch?

Morning TV (normally children's television)
What images do you think they enjoy watching?

Animation, stop motion.
Also similar shows to mine
What might they consider distasteful or offensive?

Language and offensive behaviour
How will you ensure that your animation will suit your chosen audience?
I will try to make sure that my animation is suitable for my target audience by
producing something that they can relate to. Across the 30 seconds or so that I have
available, I will try and make a scene that they may recognise/ relate to from past
experiences. What I won't be doing is making something that no one has any idea
about so that they can't make out what I'm trying to represent.
How will they physically watch your animation? (i.e in an exhibition format, on screen,
projection, online?)
My animation will be available to watch on TV and online. The reason for choosing these two
are that I feel they have to biggest range of audiences and viewers, so that my TV Ident will
be viewed by a much larger number of the public.

Frame Rates
What is the duration of your animation in minutes? (minimum 30 seconds)
30 seconds
In seconds?
How many frames per second for video?

I will be using 25 frames per second. My TV Ident will be about 30 seconds long, so this will
be a total of around 750 photos across the animation.
There are 60 seconds in a minute. How many frames (ie. Individual photos) will you
need to take?
750
Lighting Design
Where will you be photographing your animation?

Some of my animation will be filmed outside during the daylight. This will allow a
natural light so that there aren't any reflections or unnatural light when filing my
documentary section. In the chat show, this may include some unnatural light. The
reason for this is that I want it to have the feeling of a real chat show, almost like a
love aired set up. Finally for my music video, none of this will be natural light. I will
have the effect of almost a disco type setting, with flashing lights.
Does it have natural daylight?

Only one of my sections will have natural daylight,a son that is the documentary
section. The reason behind this is that I want no reflectiveness or invisible parts of
my animation. I will be creating a documentary that is filmed around plants, so to get
the full effect of their colour and vibrancy, my filming will need to be done during the
day.
If so, you will need to block this out. Explain why.

You will need to block out natural light because of the shadow and brightness that it
produces. If for example you are filming over the course of a few days, the weather will vary.
The shadow will change on your characters and their surroundings, but the sun might be
hidden by clouds so then there is no shadow at all.
Do you have a constant light source(s) such as a lamp?

In two of the topics, chat show and music video, I will be using constant light
sources. These will be lamps and a disco ball. There is a reason behind this, and it is
that for the chat show, I want it to have a feeling like it's being aired live, so unnatural
I believe is key. It's the same with the music video, I want everything to be dark like
your in a night club. I will then have bright flashing lights to make this setting seem
realistic to the audience.
Where will you place your light source(s) to create interesting effects?
For the chat show I will have one constant light facing the stage. This won't be to
bright that nothing is visible, it will be just right so that there is almost a spotlight on
the presenter and the guest.
For the music video, I will have the flashing light at the top, but it won't be visible.
Only the light it's providing will be visible, and that will be on the floor and the walls.
(LO3)
Frame numbers
You will need to label your images as frames
The first 24 frames will be written as;
0_1
0_2 etcetc
the following 24 will be

1_1
1_2
1_3
Ensure your clips are labeled as such. Screen shot the folder your clips are in, and copy the
image underneath.
Dope sheets
A dope sheet is an animation tool which helps a animator organise the animation shot-byshot.
This gives the camera operator instructions on each shot type and how many frames this will
be used for.
A dope sheet is usually split into 5 different sections.
To indicate what action occurs on which frame number

To see what action is happening in this shot.
To see what dialogue used in this scene.
To show what level of animation is happening.
To give camera instructions (angle).
For example;
Because you will be working with video, you will be using 30fps. You will need to complete a
dope sheet for EVERY SECOND of your animation.
i.e, if you make a 30 second animation, you will need to complete 30 dope sheets.
This will be a time-consuming task, but it will help you understand what will need to
happen in each of the shots you take. The higher marks will come from a detailed and
careful collection of dope sheets. For example, if your characters speaks, you will need to
show the mouth forming every shape in order to look effective.
