1.26 Reflection on my final outcome

This is my final outcome. It tells the story of animals kept in cages all their lives. These animals often never see sunlight or even can’t walk. Then they will be died as the experiment or dinner.

It sounds harsh, but that’s the way it is. For the sake of fame and wealth, some scientists usually do some impossible experiments with animals. They may think that after doing these experiments, they will become famous and even make some contribution and influence to human society. But in the process, there are thousands of sets and tens of thousands of animals die. I think animals have no duty or responsibility from birth to death and contribute their own lives to human society. Of course, these animals have been forced into this situation. For this matter, the only thing I can do now is to draw some animations about the prohibition of cruelty to animals to make some publicity, hoping that people will pay more and more attention to this matter.

This is the first time I’ve done frame by frame animation. It may not look very smooth, but I think this animation does a good job of expressing what I want to express. In this animation, I particularly like the plot that at the 6th second, the transition is made with the blood of the mouse. I think this process is very rendering. Although in the animation, there is only one mouse died, but after a long time of accumulated experiments, the blood of these mice is more and more, and finally overflow the whole picture.

However, I think this animation is not detailed enough, so I think I need to add some more details to this animation, such as the texture of the cages and the softness of the ball when it lands. At the 15th second, I should add a few more frames of the dog running and jumping as well.

I also made some adjustments to this animation. In the one-to-one tutorial with the teacher, we discussed together that the color of the text of the animation was not too prominent, so I changed my color to black and white according to the teacher’s advice. Here is the comparison.
