if it moves,
liv can help
Specialising in 2d and 3d animation I can move your static ideas into an animated piece of magic.
My playful and characterful work has jumped from my head and can be seen in commericals, animated gifs, title sequences and motion identities both here in the uk and across the world.
how do I make your animation
move?
The animation process is not an exact science; it varies depending on the project, studio, style, and techniques used. However, we find the following steps a useful roadmap for a project.
step 1:
briefing
So you want a video, but don't know where to start? By jumping on a discovery call, we can define a clearer brief dependant on your objectives, goals, target audience, deadline, and budget. These golden nuggets of information will then help create realistic timeframe and plan for your project.
step 2:
script
If you are looking to add a voiceover, obviously, a script is essential. Whether you write it by yourself or we collaborate together, we'll adapt, refine and improve it to make it Oscar worthy
step 3:
style
Happy with your script? Let's create some styleframes to show how the video may look and feel
step 4:
storyboard
Like how it looks? Great. Now let's create a storyboard of the film from your approved script and styleframes.
Not sure what a storyboard is? Basically it is a collection of drawn frames that will dictate the story, audio and movement of the piece
step 5:
voiceover
Now to record some smooooth tones for your animation (if you need them) to give it that extra “zing”
The perfect voice can be lined up to match your brand and budget. Or, if you or your CEO fancy a moment behind the mic, the spotlight’s ready and waiting!
step 6:
animation
Now the magic happen (excited squeal).
When the script, styleframes and storyboard are signed off, animation can begin - adding extra touches to still frames and making them come to life.
step 7:
audio mix
Animation complete!
Now to add some extra sparkle with audio. Sound effects are added, voice-over huffs and puffs are removed, and the chosen music track is mixed in to bring the piece to life!
step 8:
delivery
When it is looking and sounding perfect, it is exported to your projects technical specifications and then delivered to you. You can now sit back, relax, have a well-deserved cuppa tea, and reap the rewards of our hard work.
step 9:
de-brief
How did it go? Got the recognition it deserved? Did what you were setting out to achieve? In a debrief call, I will go through all the feedback you have. I would love to hear your comments!
