Animated Narratives Week 6

Nobody wants to experience such a thing, there is something wrong with him! Catch him!
This week, we continued to work on the subject of character. However, in this week's topic, we proceeded through dialogue and sound. Dialogue is an important thing that supports the character and adds new information to it. A video without both sound or dialogue will certainly not be able to convey the necessary emotion or information to us. The Lion King video we watched in class was a good example of this. Dialogue between them gives us a much better understanding of Scar's feelings and thoughts.

Based on what I learned in this lesson, I used the premiese(story) that I came up with, "The ant was carrying the piece of pea towards the nest.  He stopped for a moment and said, "Enough, I'm going to travel the world" while throwing the pea aside.". In this story, the ant wants to get out of its nest where it has been working for a long time. Tired of staying in the same place and doing the same things every day. He no longer wants to be a worker ant. What he wants is to see the world and leave his old life behind. There are many different and beautiful things in the world, and it seems absurd to him to spend his time in one place and work only.

The Lion King scene was quite impressive. Because it showed well how a character can give their own personality through their speech. moreover, Scar chooses a more allusive narrative instead of conveying his aims as they are. In this way, two different audiences watching the animation can make different meanings out of the speech. Children will not understand the meaning of Scar's words, but adults will realize the true meaning of his words.

There were a few important things I learned from this lesson and animation. The biggest one was that people of different ages could understand different things while watching a scene. This is where the strength of the story and writing comes into play. Dialogues and sounds can definitely take a scene to another dimension. They can help us understand an important part of the character or story.
