Stalled out on the project for the last few days. I made a photoshop document of a cockroach to separate all the body parts into layers for easier animation. This I can import into Adobe After Effects and access each layer individually to move the legs, antennae, etc.
Learning After Effects on my own has been a bit of a challenge, but the software is somewhat similar to Premiere so it's going ok.
The greatest obstacle has been the dilemma of how to proceed. I somewhat regret that I am not creating something physical, like a print, and I feel lost as far as how to convey the story. Suddenly it feels like I can envision a 2-D product more easily than the planned video.
I have two ideas I am debating between.
1. Students walks across Hoval as the background becomes slowly covered in painted brushstrokes rather than reality. This will signify internal change, a change in perception of one's environment.
2. Student falls asleep in Dinand, has dream of turning into cockroach, wakes up to find it wasn't a dream at all.
