0 Comments

 
For your 15th Critical Analysis, you will watch the behind the scenes documentary Fowl Play: The Making of Chicken Run. You will then answer the questions below. This will count as your grade.

Post your answers as a comment to this blog post. Be sure to include your name in the post. Do not help one another with answers; this will result in no credit for the assignment.

You will have 1 class period to complete your analysis. If you do not finish writing in class, you must finish this for homework and post before the next class on Friday, 2/22!

As you watch, answer these questions:
  1. What material are the dolls in Chicken Run made of?
  2. How is voice acting important to the animation of the film? Answer in complete sentences.
  3. Who are Nick Park and Peter Lord?
  4. True/False: Before the animators begin their work filming the dolls, the voice actors record their dialogue months in advance.
  5. How do the animators record the characters' mouths moving?
  6. How many sets did the team of animators build for the film?
  7. About how many individual frames is Chicken Run made up of?​
  8. What are some objects the sound artists used for the chicken sound effects?
  9. How many minutes of film were completed per week?
  10. About how long did it take to shoot a single shot from the film? Which shot was the longest in the film?

Period 7 -- Critical Analysis #14

2/15/2019

 
For today's critical analysis, you will complete a self-assessment of your stop motion project. Be sure to post your writing as a comment to your correct class period's blog post. This is due by midnight for a grade!

Pull up your final stop motion video that you turned in (you may locate it in your Google Drive folder). Read through the questions below and think about them as you watch your video.

Once you have watched through your video, answer each question below in complete sentences. Write at least 1 paragraph per each question, 5 sentences minimum per paragraph.


  1. Describe what your stop motion project is about. Be specific. What happens in the project? Is there a story being told? What was your intention or idea for your project? What do you want the audience to get from watching your video?
  2. Name some areas where you were successful in creating/completing this project. Be sure to write in complete sentences.
    Examples: I told a complete story in my final video.
    I was able to manipulate my objects from shot to shot, creating a smooth animation.
  3. Name some areas where you were unsuccessful in creating/completing your project. These can be areas where you see room for improvement. Be sure to write in complete sentences.
    Examples: I wish that I had shot my images in a better lighting scenario. 
    I wish that I had included audio with my final video.
  4. Finally, describe what you might do differently if you had more time to go back and work on your project. Would you go with a new idea? Would you reshoot some of your images with better lighting, in a different location, etc? Would you give yourself more time to complete your shooting? Be specific.
​
Your analysis will be graded on:​
  • meeting minimum length requirements  
  • depth of organization
  • evaluation and completion of assessment questions
  • grammar/punctuation
