The context
‘Mediatech.org’ is an online site that displays creative work by young people that relates to the role of new media technologies in Australian culture. The owners of the site have called for submissions of new work.
Key concepts: technologies, audiences and institutions
| | The task
You have viewed in class, a range of new media products from different institutions. You are to individually create a brief animation that comments on new media technologies and the institutions that produce or use them.
Steps:
1. Plan the animation by deciding what your visual comments will be and whether they will be positive, negative or neutral. These comments are the critique aspect of the task involving analysis and evaluation.
2. Create a three-column script and storyboard (design) that shows how your comments will be presented visually in the animation. You will need to decide:
what types of images you will use in your animation
in what order the audience see the images
whether the soundtrack is to include voiceover, music and sound effects
how the images and sound help to convey your comments.
3. Use a digital still camera to capture the sequence of images and the software package you have been using in class to animate the sequence and complete post- production (production).
Conditions
Time: 4–6 weeks. You will be given eight lessons in class time to help you develop the design and produce the animation. Teacher feedback will be provided on your design before the production is commenced. You may need to complete the work in your own time. You will submit:
three-column script for 30–45 seconds
storyboard: 12–16 shots
animation: 30–45 seconds.
