ANIMATION

One notion which we would like to include in our piece is ANIMATION

I personally think that this would work very well in our video as it fits the fun, innocent and youthful feel to our video. Furthermore, it is something different, thus keeping the viewers entertained and excited throughout.

A very influential music video which also includes animation is 'Nowhere Near My Heart' by Kori Pop...

Although this video has some dark meanings to it, the general concept of having paper characters and moving objects (e.g. houses) really intrigues me.

The reappearing motif of a bear tapping his foot is very inspiring. The song 'Lollipop' has a very strong and significant bass line, as does the song shown above. In order to highlight this leitmotif i would like to create something animated which moves in time with the bass line also.

The paper people are a very interesting element of this video which i would love to use in my piece. It adds authenticity and excitement. In this video, i perceive the synchronised movement of the paper people as a latent representation of the lack of control we mere mortals have over our constructed relationships and the roles we must play within them. However, if i was to use this idea in my piece, i would arrange it in a way that is representative of teamwork, child play and harmony.

I'm not sure of what the animation is going to look like just yet however here are some ideas

that i have come up with...
