A crime-based art film animation featuring a mysterious
illuminating figure. The film is proposed on the concept of visualisation. It
will be set in a black and white environment with the mysterious figure lurking
into a dark clock store. The dark scenery suddenly changes after an accident
that occurs in the store.
Treatment
The film will be created in a graphical vector-based style
using semi-figurative visualizations for the animation process. In terms of
lighting, the scenery would be solely black and white to fit the intended mysterious
noir theme. The camera angle stays mostly on the side view of the character to
take the audience through the journey of the character.
This independent film will be short, therefore the timeline will
go at a rather fast past. The idea of the film is to show art in a form of
animation, which instates an animation film between figurative and
non-figurative. Multiple sound effects have been used in the process with the
animation visually generating shape correspondence to the background audio. Examples
of sound effects being used include car screeching, glass breaking, doors
opening, footsteps and ticking. These sounds would be generally mixed in a
rhythm and in line with the animation flow.
The inspiration for this animation is with thoughts that a conceptual
appearance of a mysterious anonymous figure changing colour, which is
conflicting to its background would deem as high visualisation presenting in
animation. It would also make the
figurative character extremely clear. The meaning of the film will be the separation
between dark and light, with the idea of switching moods. The story was
originally planned to be literal to the soundtrack but the idea was later
changed to make the animation a bit more intriguing.
