Production Blog- LoopDeLoop: 'Lucky' - Evaluation

Evaluation


Overall, I like the look of the animation but do feel it could have been more polished, incorporating more movement on the character and more detail in foreground elements in order to give the set a bit more life, as the setting seems almost sterile, though maybe that works for the subject matter. It was something I hastily threw together not long before the deadline in order to fulfill the brief and so I do wish I could have spent more time on it as the idea, I feel, does have some legs. Perhaps the core concept is something I can develop and build upon in the future, incorporating secondary characters perhaps who react to the situation etc... As it stands I feel I could find a way of incorporating parts of the work into my showreel as aesthetically I feel it stands on its own due to it's pleasant primary colour scheme.

Strengths
  • The aesthetic fits the mood and tone of the scene quite nicely.
  • Simple primary colour scheme is aesthetically pleasing.
  • Theme is communicated fairly clearly.
  • Sound mixing is decent.
Weaknesses
  • Little pre-production/preparation leaves the piece feeling a bit thrown together at the last min.
  • Animation only Loops 3 times. Would have benefitted from some sort of workaround/seamless integration.
  • Minimal animation in the scene leaves it feeling a little lifeless. (Though that is the point.)
