APD Week 8 - Play and Sound

Theme

Play and sound

Context

Play with sound, my inspiration is from class other students work. Record sounds from your life, then listen to them and imagine what might happen. Sound plays a very important role in animation, and it is interesting to do some animation based on sound. I can play my imagination in this exercise.

Method

First, I recorded what I usually do almost every day, using the computer to do work and cooking in the kitchen. I edited the recording and added some more atmospheric sounds. According to my editing voice, I drew two animation scenes.

Response

On the basis of the recording, I added some other sounds to support the whole environment, such as the sound of cooking in the kitchen and the sound of fire. Based on the edited voice, I imagined what would happen to the character in such an environment. When drawing the animation, I exaggerated the character design and the character reaction, which was used to match the exaggeration of the sound.

Reflection

We are expose to all kinds of voices in our lives. A song, a sound made by an object, or a conversation between people. Sound can also be used as a transition in animation. For example, in my work, the sound of opening a door, we do not see a door, but we could know someone is coming in or out, and the scene may change.

Play with sound by imagining what would happen if you have a sound.
