Here is my final game trailer for unit 53. I created a game trailer for an Iron man game using Flash. I created an animation for an iron man game because originally, I created the character for some After effects demonstrations. I decided to continue the development of this character all the way through the unit.
Evaluation
During this unit, I feel that I have developed my skills to enable me to create a 2D animation. To begin with, I collected research on game trailers, I feel I did this effectively which helped me create a professional 2D animation with professionalism.
during this unit I learnt a lot on after effects and in Flash. I learnt how to animate in adobe after effects text, shapes and sounds. I also learnt about the puppet pin tool, this is where you can an animation seem more realistic. I learnt how to create a frame by frame and a rotoscope. Having learnt all these, I was able to take more skills into my final development and in future animations.
I gathered sounds for my final animation because this would bring the animation alive. I took the audio files, which were free to download and took them into Audition so they would fit well with my animation. I am happy with the sounds in my animation, but I think that I would have liked a soundtrack to go on throughout the game trailer.
I created many graphics for my final animation which took up time I could have spent creating a more solid animation. Although the graphic creation took time, I feel this is what made the animation good, the graphics were the real strong point of this animation and I am happy with how them came out.
Overall, I feel I created a solid 2D game trailer with good graphics and sounds. I feel that my animation was not as good as I would have liked is because of my Flash skills, I was not able to animate certain things very well which did make some things look bad, but I create my animation independently and effectively.
Presentation
Here are screen shots of my presentation I gave. In this I explained what I had completed during my time on this unit. I received positive feedback about my presentation, I was told that it was a good, clear animation, which was completed with good use of audio.
