After speaking to my tutor Jaime Pardo today I have a few other areas to look into:
- Should the message also incorporate all the waste humans dispose of or solely about this idea?
- Could the animation be from the robins point of view or should the contradictions run parallel?
- Should the story be more streamlined and simply be about a magpie keep adding to his nest and becoming trapped by his own possessions?
- Should the animation be stylised or photo-realistic?
In addition to the above concerns i also have an issue thinking of a research question to suite this project, possibilities:
- Which style is better for a serious subject; realistic or stylised?
- How important is a narrative when producing a short animation?
- Is the increased render time of final gather & global illumination when computing realistic shadows worth the overall effect?
- Can Maya's custom software create scenes aesthetically as good as Mental Ray?
And finally in addition to the above here is a short list of things that need to be researched
- Create a mood board of colours, styles and textures to be used in the animation
- Research how birds move and act
- Read "Ideas for the animated short" to help with narrative Refine and complete the story / narrative
