Applied Animation - Week 8

I suggested to both Jay and Tess that it could be cool to have mono printed backgrounds to create texture to our animation. We originally set out to create an animation that consistent of various mediums and that combined hand-drawn animation with digitally drawn animation. However, due to time restraints and budget, we decided to just have the backgrounds in a practical medium. I showed Tess a small Monoprint that I created to show the group what the backgrounds could be. Me and Tess then set out to create monoprints.
Here I created a mono print of the park scene. I decided to leave out a lot of the buildings in the distance as well as the cars so we could animate over the top. However, I decided to create another one because I thought the bench could be white with a green outline because later we would merge certain parts of the original images with the mono printed images.

This is my re-done park scene.




I decided to create a brick wall type mono print for my poster scene. 

Me and Tess decided that the bricks in the bottom right corner looked the best.


Whenever we created a mono-print, we would then rub a blank piece of paper over the top to create an inverted image. 







Overall, I'm really happy with how these mon-prints turned out. I scanned in all the mono-prints me and Tess created and then we started to play around with them in photoshop. I tried to merge the original images with the mono-printed versions, however, I couldn't quite hack it so I handed the job over to Tess which she was more than happy to do because her backgrounds were turning out to be amazing.
