Metamorphosis Animation

This project was (I think) one of the hardest we did.  We had to Make up a story that shows metamorphosis using different types of animation including stop-motion, and claymation.  Thats exactly what my team did, but because we used a program called "styx" which uses stick figures to make online stop motion, we took longer than expected.  The end result wasn't as good as we expected it to be, because we didn't add voiceovers (which it needed) and a good enough soundtrack.  This time my teammates were Brandi, and Mikela.

Our focus statement was "Rose Changes Reality."  The story is about a magician who accidentally transports two girls/volunteers into a stick world.  In the stick world the go into a cave and find a mysterious cloaked figure that tells them that they need to find four different things from four different places around the world.

For our first scene we had Brandi as Rose and Mikela and I, was the audience. Brandi asked for two volunteers and then she put her green cape over them and made us disappear. In our second scene we were transported into animation. We appeared outside of a cave and then it starts to rain so we go into the cave. When we are in the cave we see a cloaked figure and he tells us that if we want to return back to the normal world we need to find four things. Those things were a golden teacup from England, a golden chili pepper from Mexico, golden maple syrup from Canada, and then golden bamboo from China. We found three magic brooms on the side of the road and we use those to fly around the world. Once we got all of those things we opened a portal to the normal world. Then we get distracted by a butterfly and then go through the portal.  Then end up back to normal but then when we get back we come in and hit the wall of a studio.

When we finished the animation we had a animation critique in class. My team didn't finish our soundtrack in Garageband but we had to turn it in anyway. For the results of the critique we met the requirements.
