Monty Python

Monty Python animations made by Terry Gilliam,where pictures are cut out of a magazine or book and moved about in crazy wacky ways. Monty Python animations don't make sense they have no proper story line. I think it is really clever how this type of animation is put together. The pictures used in this animation are quite funny.

Pixiltion with Jade,Robyn,Zoe

This Pixiltion animation was fairly easy to make. In our group was Jade,Roybn,Zoe and Me, all that we used was ourselves and a Still camera on a tripod, what we did was take pictures of us doing small movements. We all took turns in being in the animation and taking the pictures.The only problem with this animation is that we did it outside so we got diffrent people and cars in the back ground and also the lighting would change.But worked wellwas the diffrent movements we used.I learnt that this animation uses imagination more than any outher because you can look like your flying and you can do almost anything with it.This animation has helped me to use the camera in diffrent ways.

Cut out with Jade

To make this Cut Out animation we used diffrent magazine cut outs, scissors and a still camera. This animation was easy to make all we did was take pictures of each movement and at the end we put them in order.In this animation i worked with jade, Jade took the role of photographer and i moved the pieces.I think in this animation we could of thought about the movements more and put more of a story to it. But other than that i think it worked fairly well with the woman we cut out and the way we made her walk.
This animation is based on the Monty Pyton animations, i learnt that the animation doesn't really make sence,its crazy, whacky and very fun to make.

Harvie Krumpet

'Harvie Krumpet' is a animations created by Adam Elliot. Adam Elliot was born on the 2nd of January 1972 in Australia.
Adam Elliot has also created other animations like 'Uncle', 'Brother' and 'Cousin'.
He has also made a recent film called 'Mary and Max'.

But 'Harvie Krumpet' is based around a person called Harvek Milos Krumpetzki, who was born in Poland the year 1922. The animation tells the story of his life and the struggles he went though like having tourettes and all the people he loves leves him. But he always looks on the brighter side of life and lives life to the full.
The type of animation which is used is claymation where the models are made out of clay. Adam Elliot made the models the same size as wine bottles because he has a bad twitch. With Adam Elliots twitch it gave all of the models a unique style.
'Harvie Krumpet' has won over fourty major awards at famous film festivals. The 23 minute animation cost $380,000 and it took 15 months to make.

I loved the animation it makes you think about life and get as much as you can out of life 'Carpe Diem' (seize the day). I thinkl the way Adam Elliot has made this animation is very clever and the subject he ghas done it on is inspiring.
