Animation and Documentaries | Blog Post #45

Going back to edutainment (i still don't like that word), we discussed creating a visual appeal to the documentary to engage audiences to have them learn and additionally entertain them. Here we have exhibit A where animation comes into play.

It is an effective educational tool that can simplify complex content for better understanding for viewers of all ages. It further allows for a higher accessibility rate for audiences who may not understand English so well so that they can follow along in the content. Animation can also help maintain viewer interest, especially in documentaries that deal with data-heavy or technical content. The dynamic and visually engaging nature of animation can captivate audiences and keep them engaged throughout the documentary.


The other day i mentioned that my documentary may be experimental as its going to be a hybrid of presentational infographics and video. So i will be implementing animation for that portion of infographics so i can better engage the audience. I will see you all in the next update post!

The Calm Before the Coming Storm Part 1 | Blog Post #9

 SO IT SEEMS ALL IS WELL RIGHT?!  You would be correct... for now. At the moment we have our idea of our protagonist in isolation fighting against manipulated bullying. However, that is about all we have. So as this post is so cleverly named, we must prepare for the coming of the storm. The storm being production period.  So one of the most important parts of production is a location. Now i have a couple of thoughts running through my head. And it comes back to one place. You guessed it, the previous filming location as for the previous film. Now you may be wondering as to why? Well in my story board (release coming soon), it depicts the use of  the character walking through areas near rubble or not very well cleaned. It just so happens that there is a gas station with road construction next to it near the location we previously used. I also would like the use of a dingy run down building for filming inside of to be the home of the protagonist. Well my family owns on...
