Filming and Animating.

Ive never created anything like live action animation but it always interested me. Im disappointed how the final film turned out due to my inexperience and mistakes.
One of the biggest mistakes was not creating the animation at the exact same frame rate as the filming, which means the final animation is jumpy and off sync, leaving massive gaps between the character and the furniture. Some of the scenes Dexys perspective looks off leading to a hoovering appearance.

I had problems with the camera shaking, even on a tri pod, leaving an uneven finish.
Due to this project being filmed in spring time the weather was continually bleak and cloudy, not matching the themes and desired emotional roll over effect.
This i will try and fix with colour corrections, masks and filters but the final animation still wont be what was intended.
I noticed most kids tv and documentaries are all from the childs angles and views so i kept most of the shots at the childs height so that the world looked bigger and less boxed in, appealing more to children.
