An issuu document put together with the interval frames that I took from the opening sequence to the film 'catch me if you can'.

Revised Sequences.
My first sequence looking at framing in which the word starts as solid type and turns into dots that disperse within the frame. From this gif there is no sense of pace however I think they do show the progression of imagery. The changing of the type from letter forms to dots would probably take place over a fairly short period of time to imply explosive energy...
A gif for one of my drop ideas, shaping the letters of the word drop to give them the appearance of a bomb, which then falls away from the frame and will eventually vanish. Need to clean up the images however I think the idea for this one is quite good.
This sequence for disperse is based around the cursor being something that makes the pixels of the word disperse so as not to be close too it, as if it is surrounded by a force field or something... However I have recently discovered that I probably can't use the cursor as a visual, so I have thought about making one of the letters of the word do the same thing, or possibly the dot from the 'i'.
A sequence for my word, drop in which the 'R' in a 3-dimensional view of the word falls over. Very simple however I think it could work quite nicely. Again the pace is not evident from this gif but it I will have to spend some time getting the pace of this falling right, starting slowly, then building momentum and stopping dead.
Another sequence for drop, the idea for which was the word falling past from a birds-eye view. However this may be fairly unclear because of the orientation and I need to think of a way to give it the appearance that it is dropping and not travelling forward. One possibility would be to turn the word right, onto it's side, so it would be read normally, but appear to be falling away...

Revised sequences
A seminar with Lorraine looking at framing our ideas for sequences with final resolutions in mind. This is based round, title & action safe zones which occur when viewing video on TV. This means that our sequences have to be designed with these guides in mind or some of the key features could be cut from the animation... just like bleed in print, but digital.

Further experimentation visualising sequences.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Following the sequential thinking seminar we were asked to do the same task, this time using the whole word instead of a single letter from it. Taking 5 ideas, thinking of 5 ways to go about visualising each idea, with 5 frames for each.
1. disperse > word splitting into atoms/particles > dispersing.
2. drop > word falling past or frame dropping past the word.
3. drop > word falling towards the frame, making use of perspective.
4. Disperse > word seperating or breaking > dispersing across the frame.
5. Drop > word morphing into droplet shape.
Again I think this was a useful task and I have got an idea of which ideas I think will work best and how to visualise them before using after effects.

Sequential thinking seminar
Photos of my annotated sheets from the sequential thinking seminar with had with Fred. These were very basic visualisations of animations within five frames, using only a single letter from the words we had previously been given, and researched. During this session we were restricted for each of these worksheets in a certain way. For example for the first the letter had to remain in the same position but it's form and appearance could change. For the second sheet, the letter couldn't change form in any way, and could only move up & down, or rotate. For the final sheet, no lateral or vertical movement was allowed, so the shape could change in dimensions, size and rotation. I found it useful to work with restrictions like this as it allowed me to work out limitations when animating and also which movements give the best visualisation of my words.
