Archer: Defning Style

After me and Beth played around with styles we brought our work together. Beth had created some great stills, and I preferred them over mine.
We then worked together to perfect them. We wanted to have clear stills that would then be the final frame of our gifs.

Beth created a few different versions of some quotes and we worked with them. I then went on to create boundaries and alter sizing and positions, focusing on hierarchies and syntax that Beth speaks about in her research.

This way of working was very effective. The more we work together the quicker we become at communicating and creating outcomes.
Beth clearly explained to be her ideas for the animation shown here at the bottom. She explained the first frame she created, the words beginning in a heap and moving forward to form their sentences. It was simple and effective, and I refined the idea making use of the colours she had chosen, changing them to lines to better represent the quotes mention of coke and jail.

By the end of our conversation/ session we had clear final frames for the moving images we wanted to do. From here we began the steep learning curve that is Adobe After Effects.
