Year 8 Gifted & Talented Media Arts Motion Comic Assignment Year 8 Gifted & Talented Media Arts Motion Comic Assignment A motion comic (or animated comic) is a form of animation combining elements of print comic books and animation. Individual panels are expanded into a full shot while sound effects, voice acting, and animation are added to the original artwork. Text boxes and sound effect bubbles are typically removed to feature more of the original artwork being animated. Motion comics are often released as short serials covering a story arc of a long running series or animating a single release of a graphic novel. Single release issues of a story arc are converted into ten- to twenty- minute-long episodes depending on content. Your Task: In groups of 3-4 create a small (2-3min) motion comic using the Adobe Suite, predominately, After Effects. You will need to plan & storyboard before creating the animation. You will divide the animation into equal parts to be working on and then bring them together at the end, using Premiere to create the animation. This task will make you have to watch different tutorials on After Effects to create the desired special effects you want to achieve in your animation. The teachers will upload relevant tutorials to the class blog. You HAVE to use COPYRIGHT FREE images – so that’s why the Digital Comic Museum, is useful. It’s a resource which has comics available to download that are copyright free and in the public domain.

  • Designing Motion Comic About Information of Indonesian's
    Designing Motion Comic About Information of Indonesian’s Traditional Medicine (Case Study: Djammoe) Y Satrio1* and A Zulkarnain2 1,2Visual Communication Design Department, Faculty of Design, Universitas Pelita Harapan, Jl.MH. Thamrin Boulevard Lippo Village 1100, Tangerang 15810, Indonesia *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Jamu is an Indonesian traditional health beverage, but among young people, it is deemed out-of-date and a drink for old people. These images take form because young people only get minimal exposure to jamu and because there are modern beverages that they prefer. In this project, the theme of information about jamu will be presented in the form of a digital comic, because the interest in reading textbooks among young people has been gradually diminishing and they prefer reading entertainment books, such as comic books. This project uses a literature study. The literature study is conducted to get information about the theme and the design theories that are going to help with the process of designing the project. The final product of this project is a motion comic. Visual research study and keywords are adjusted to the target audience of this project. The result of the research is used as a guide in the whole process of making the digital comic, from the pre-production to the post-production process. This paper focuses on discussing the application of several design theories in the motion comic project. Keywords. Health, Traditional, Jamu, Young People, Digital Comic 1. Introduction Jamu according to the National Agency of Drug and Food Control of Indonesia is categorized as traditional medicine.

  • BREATHING LIFE INTO WEBCOMICS Pay Attention
    v H Ma l ap d e sk a a nr ik BREATHING LIFE INTO WEBCOMICS Pay Attention Bachelor Degree Project in Media Arts, Aesthetics and Narration 30 ECTS Spring term 2018 Pernilla Larsson Supervisor: Lissa Holloway-Attaway Examiner: Lars Vipsjö Abstract This work explored the potential issues concerning attention when adding animation to a webcomic. The aim of the research has been to quantify reader reactions to a comic with animated elements to investigate potential gain or loss from the new format. The research question is formulated with regards to the specific issues of attention and distraction that movement poses on a reader’s ability to focus on the narrative content. A prototype comic tested the guidelines discovered in the background with regards to how animation should work in comics. The results shows that with the guidelines participation reaction becomes more predictable. The prototype was tested on a small group of participants, and the results show that while animations do distract they do not necessarily negatively impact reader experience. The conclusion is that animation within comics has the potential to further the media expression and that is worthy of further study. Key Words: Animation, Webcomics, Attention ​ Table of Contents 1.

  • MA How to Make Comics the Successful Way WH.Pdf
    How to Make Comics the Successful Way An Investigation into the Strategies for Successful Comics Creators by William Hill Canterbury Christ Church University Thesis submitted for the Degree of MA by Research 2021 Abstract Success is chiefly viewed as a destination point, often containing no clear direction as to how to arrive, or assurances of when one’s arrival has taken place. House this delicate theme of success amongst the vast genre of comics books and several questions occur: “What is success?” “Who has previously been successful?” “How did they gain success?” “What are the proven routes to success?” This study explores the different methods to find success within the comics industry, these methods included classical approaches such as periodical comics and newspaper strips as well as the more contemporary avenues such as self-publishing & web-comics. To gain a solid understanding and context of the commercial aspect of the business, first the study reviews the history of the comics industry. This is followed by an analysis of the definition and essential components of the comic book, to achieve a better understanding of the structure and classification of comics and, therefore, their intrinsic value as a product. The rise of the digital revolution, recent developments in technologies and web2.0 have not only contributed to expanding areas of production, distribution and fandom recognition, but also to implement innovative ideas and projects. This has led to the expansion of both profitable potentials and perilous pitfalls. To analyse the implications of these new means of creation and distribution, themes such as Communities, Pitfalls of the Internet Age and Crowdfunding have been explored.

Comics in Video Games Armin Lippitz omics have attracted more and more attention in mainstream culture. As a C result, the estimated market size of the medium in North America has doubled since 1997. 1 One reason for this growing interest in the medium is, without a doubt, the success of cinematic adaptations of comic books. However, video games have experienced an even bigger boom in popularity in recent years. Indeed, global games revenues have been growing and have effectively caught up with the movie industry. A cause for, as much as a result of, the increased success of these two media is their integration into transmedia storyworlds. These networks of texts, which collectively tell a continuous story distributed over various media outlets, have become routine for most mainstream, blockbuster titles, regardless of the initial core text’s medium. Comics and video games seem to be particularly well suited for transmedia explorations because they have always tapped into the potentials of expanding their storyworlds and extending their experiences across media, as Hans-Joachim Backe has argued.

  • Using the Concept of Timeframing to Implement Animation in the Motion Comic Adaptation of Bumi
    Using the Concept of Timeframing to Implement Animation in the Motion Comic Adaptation of Bumi K R Pangaribuan1, A Zulkarnain2 1,2Visual Communication Design Department, Faculty of Design, Universitas Pelita Harapan, Jl. MH. Thamrin Boulevard Lippo Village 1100, Tangerang 15810, Indonesia *E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. Motion comics are known for their implementation of animation in static comics, but the goal of the animation itself is rarely thought about. Some use animation in comics just for the sake of creating a moving comic, without really thinking about the strengths animation can bring. Understanding the concept of timeframing and the seven characteristics of a motion comic will help improve the use of animation in a motion comic. Keywords. Timeframing, motion comic, digital comic, animation 1. Introduction With the advancement of technology, comics that were distributed through print, have now taken form digitally and can be read through phones, laptops, and tablets. Not only are these comics uploaded online, but a lot of creative techniques are being used in the comics that can only be done digitally. One of them would be the use of animation. Digital comics combined with animation are often called interactive or motion comics. There are a lot of different types of motion comics. Some may take the original static comic and add little animations in the panels, some have implemented voice-over and music, and some have even transformed the comic into full-length 2D animation. This has caused a lot of controversy on what a comic truly is, and what essence animation can bring on an already well-done static comic.

    Whitcher 1 The 'Spectacular' Spiderman, From Page to Cel: The Process of Motion Projection in the Adaptation of Spider-Man and Venom from Comic Book to Animation Ray Whitcher 295851 Master of Arts by Course Work in Digital Animation 15 February 2011 Supervisor: Hanli Geyser Whitcher 2 Abstract The intention of this research paper is to analyse the implicit and perpetuated motion present in Comic Books and Animation as media respectively and to break down the incumbent techniques in the adaptation from a seemingly static medium to one that is articulated. The Marvel Comics characters Spider-Man and his nemesis Venom will be used as the subjects of the analysis due to Spider-Man‟s deeply ingrained history in comics making him a readily identifiable character. The motion present in both media will be demonstrated by a close, in- depth analysis of the relationship between Venom‟s first appearance in Amazing Spider-Man #299 and Episode 13: Nature vs. Nurture of the “Spectacular Spider-Man” animated series, with summative conclusions to follow.
