BVA703 Update

I have not updated this much, as I was stuck for a Question

After a good session with my Reader-Writer, I managed to get a more refined question and arguments

This is what I had, just before the critique

How can I, with the usage or colour, show the deep thoughts/state of mind/depression of a character within a short 3D film, while still maintaining the happy, near-humorous, enjoyable experience for the viewer?

• Can colour be used in contrast against desaturated (black and white) to express positive feelings/thoughts?
• Does the style of how the desaturated (black and white) is animated display the different states of one’s feelings/thoughts (scribbles show a mess within the mind, thick clouds show the weight of the feelings/thoughts)?
• Does the style of how the colour is animated display the different states of one’s feelings/thoughts (sparks show a sudden surge of adrenaline or excitement, soft bubbles show a steady calm feelings/thoughts)?
• Can I display true friendship, where supporting and never giving up on each other is the key for a deeper and more meaningful friendship?
• Can I show that the negative thoughts within one’s mind can negatively impact the happiness/outlook of life (can be harmful and/or hurtful)?
• Can I influence the viewer/reader’s own view of their own personal thoughts (is it in colour or is it grey?)?

Now advice given, here is the advice I was given

How can I, with the usage or colour, show the state of mind of a character within a light-hearted short 3D animation?

1. Practice-based research alongside active documentation via a blog is the methodology utilised in my project.
2. Can colour be used in contrast against *desaturated to express a character's positive feelings/thoughts?
3. The style of an animation displays the different states of a character's thoughts/feelings.
4. The colour of an animation displays the different states of a character's thoughts/feelings.
5. Can I display a relationship, where supporting and never giving up on each other is the key for a deeper and more meaningful friendship?
6. Can I show that the negative thoughts within a character's mind impacts their happiness or outlook on life?

Some of the artist models suggested to me are:

Pleasantville

The Wizard of Oz

Oz the Great and Powerful

Alike

Brain Divided

Mind My Mind

Now I am a lot happier with the Question and Arguments
