Ideas

Started to formulate ideas in my mind about what my animation could consist of. Here are a few from my sketchbook:

  

I initially started off thinking about kaleidescopes and how I could create a more abstract animation using colour and pattern. The shapes could move around and change colour depending on the speed and beat of the music at the time. There is one section of the music where someone says 'The past inside the present', and so i though tthe shapes could come together to form the words as they're being said.

After my first cell animation with the snails I thought of maybe continuing on using the character for the animation. The music itself is slow and would suit the movement of a snail. Either an astronaut snail or a snorkling snail as the music makes me think of space or underwater movement.

I then thought of actually using a person or a character/figure. It would work in stop motion if i drew the character out in severl different positions as the character moves. He/She pops out of the page, goes on aan adventure and explores and then something happens in the end; either he dies or gets lost or something.
