Evaluation

Overall, I feel that this project went well even with the slight problematic start. Creating animated sequences with the iPad app Brushes was a new experience for me and I feel it worked well with the look I wanted to make, even thought it took a long time to get a working style for my idents. Once I had access to the iPads, I got a lot of work done, and I feel that my drawing I did for the City Of openings was my best one as I had more experience with the program at that point.

As I has having problems getting the right software, scheduling was a problem on this project. As there was a 2 week break in April, I had no access to college iPads and had to improvise by making makeshift idents using different software. Once I got back to college, however, I worked extra hours to get everything doe on time, especially when working with Brushes. There were also a few issues with exporting the finished drawings, as that could only be done at college as well. The limitations did make it more difficult to keep up with the deadlines, but eventually I got everything to work in the end.

Editing-wise, I feel that I did not use as many After Effects techniques as I could have, but as my idents are mainly focused around my own drawings, I did not need to use After Effects as much as other people on this project. Most of the After Effects techniques I used were masks, time stretches, and camera movement.

I feel that my finished work went over quite well with the client and that they liked the finished packages I created, and I hope they will be used in the future.
