4/4 Scene


What the style I like to follow?

There are plenty of it like the following:
BackGround design but in 2D style with simple color.
The reason I love this is because the method they let the player 
different the background and character are a great work.
The Character shadows layer admire me to do or following this style.

The way they merge the character is awesome and definably the way I want to do if there are more time.



What do I prepare so far?
The color rule and-and basic story plot are decided like below:



Production Phrase

Phase 1
Phase 1 is basically drawing or sketching the idea out from sketch book or from mind into simple black and white before adding the color. A tool that I using is Adobe Illustrator basic shape, gradient, brush and pencil skill. My artwork component or I should mention as my asset are from in this group: Tree, Root, Background, Element, Bird, Logo, Squirrel A and B.





Phase 2
Phase 2 is the step that I was starting to add in the basic color for my asset with Adobe Illustrator too. The skill that I using was path stroke and-and live paint function to add the color for my asset.
Like you can see now all the basic asset was finish set up in primary color and waiting to be more detail by adding in light and shadow layer for them.



 Phase 3

Phase 3 was like I mention early is the stage that adding in different kind of lightning and shadow layer to make my asset more attracting. It could say was the final touch in my asset creation in this stage because all the asset was finish illustrates in Adobe Illustrator and ready to move on the next phrase that mean finding on background music and first testing in Adobe After Effect.




 Phase 4
Phase 4 was the part where I start collecting all the background music and sound effect that I need in my creation in CFE. Although the competition prepares the main background music for all the competitor but there is possible for all of us to obtain our own sound effect or background music as long we give the credit or cite for it in order to prevent plagiarism or disobey the competition rules. The Sound Effect that I select for the competition are listed below:

No.1 - Beachfront Celebration
No.2 - Banana Slip Compilation [Sound Effects]
No.3 - Birdwing [Sound Effects]
No.4 - Cartoon Running [Sound Effects]
No.5 - Ding [Sound Effects]
No.6 - Flashback [Sound Effects]
No.7 - FREE! Keyboard Typing [Sound Effects]
No.8 - Hungry Stomach Growl [Sound Effects]
No.9 - Crash Rock Drop On Wood Debris 01 [Sound Effects]
No.10 - Tree falling down [Sound Effects]
No.11 - Truck idling [Sound Effects]
No.12 - Whoosh [Sound Effects]
Phrase 5
Here come the tricky part, the hardest part in this project, Video Editing, and Audio Matching aren't easy like I think when the first time I use After Effect in the past. I use to create character and scene in the different frame and merge it in another frame for certain benefits and it works well for me as well. The tricky part is, the music editing isn't really lovely because the music set by the competition was huge different from my story type and I need to work a lot to fix it. Below is some screen shot of my editing work in After Effect.
  





 Phrase 6
I manage to complete all my work in the require time include sketching, drawing, editing and framing. I must admit that this work should be better in graphic but due to my weak control and self behaviour in time management. I'm more towards a person who could work in mood more then work environment or time. I must admit that if I have done thing according to my schedule that set in my report and SOI. This is just around my work in like 10 ~ 15 hour. But so far, I quite stratified that  I could do this cartoon until this level of detail and I believe that once again, I don't let myself down on assignment or work task.
