Skittles Characters

On my second attempt you can see i have used the skittles characters in the boat, this didnt work well as i didnt control their movement at the same time as I did the boat moving, this caused them to be in different places without a shift movement so it doesnt appear to look natural.
Below is a clip, where i played around with just the skittles to see how well i can make them move and to see if i could control there speed well.

Experimenting

This was my first attempt in using the programme me and lauren have choosen to use for our three adverts, as you can see in all the shots atleast one of my hands are in there if not both, this however was not ment to be the case.

Here is my second attempt this time i tried to keep my hands out of view and i re-adjusted the camera angle so the there wasn't other bits in the clip that i didnt want there.

Here i experimented with move of the movement of the boat to give the effect of the waves in the see, hopefully you can see this from the boats up and down movements.

Characters

These are our Skittles characters. only on row of skittles will eb featured in each advert, except for the tropical skittles advert in ehich there will be the original skittles as well. I did make them but then i forgot so i didnt save it so i will do them again for you.

Wild Berry Skittles (Song)

Wild thing by Trogg.

Wild thing...you make my heart sing...
You make everything
Groovy
I said wild thing...

Wild thing, I think I love you
But I wanna know for sure
Come on, hold me tight
I love you

Wild thing...you make my heart sing...
You make everything
Groovy
I said wild thing...

Wild thing, I think you move me
But I wanna know for sure
So come on, hold me tight
You move me

New Ideas

After lauren and i had finished our storyboards we found that the first one we done turned out to be the odd one out, this was the advert fro the original skittles. this advert wasnt in the stlye of slice of life adverts whereas the other two were. It also didnt contain skittles characters like the other two. so we had to come up with a whole new story board, to do this we also changed the skittles type to the carnival flavours this way it was easier to come up wioth some sort of story.However with this change we also need to find a new song which will go well with it. Any ideas? we need a carnivaly song which is upbeat and happy.

StoryBoards

Me and Lauren have completed all of our storyboards now and are planning on creating a short tester advert or just a practise demo thing on tuesday so we can see what works well. this is because we are planning on creating our adverts in animation but at the same time using the cameras to film the backgrounds and certain movements then edit them on animation.
We are also considering changing our first advert for the original skittles because it doesnt show a story like our other two. We are either going to come up with another advert for the smae product or we are going to choose another flavour of skittles to advertise in a stroy form (slice of life- style).
