Feedback Response

In regards to the feedback given in class, I really do agree with the class as a whole about the issue of the blue background. I do like how the green and pink pop when traded back and forth. I chose the blue because the characters stood out well against the background, but I do see how it is not jarring at all. Possibly, maybe I need an additional color, maybe an orange, to play against the blue so it is a jarring jump or maybe the blue should be done away with all together.

I think as far as the compilation of the small lines of figures is concerned, I believe I will form them into a shape. The brown cupcake stands out well against the background, so I will try to outline the form of a cupcake and then fill it with the other figures and the outside will be filled with additional characters to create a "created space" and to actually give the sense of a choreographed set-up.

The background on that part will take more thought on my part since I am unsure what to replace it with. I don't want that harsh black background so I will consider other colors and patterns and try them out to see what I get.

So, for next week, I plan to have the individual animations revised and the timing fixed and the lines will be choreographed. I am considering maybe changing my order of flow as well and possibly doing a different choreographed section of the lines in between each individual animation. I will experiment with that and see how that goes.
