2D Animation Investigation

I will be investigating origins of the moving images: pionears and techniques eg. Joeseph Plateau (phenakitoscope), William Horner (zoetrope), Emile Reynaud (praxinoscope), Edward Muybridge, Edison (kinetoscope), Lumiere brothers.

I investigated each of the inventors and wrote about what they invented and what it exactly does. I gained a better expereince of what and how the inventors invented there products and how succsful they became.

I watched demonstration videos/animations of the zoetrope being used and also the phenakitoscope.

1st week after christmas:

This was the first week after christmas. We were given the brief of our next assignment by our lecturer which was to make a music video. I began working on my investigation into music videos and started to reseach different types of video genres (pop, rock, alternative etc).
