CoP Creative Response - Putting Together and Editing in After Effacts

After finishing in Maya I then had to batch render the animations which renders the animation out as an image sequence, so then I have to import the image sequence into After Effects and make it in to a video. When I placed the image sequence in to After Effects I also added in some text explaining what the experiment is and ask the audience if they can see the Uncanny Valley theory in the animations. I also edited the image sequences as well by tweaking with some of the colours to try and make the lighting look the same in each animation.

With the lighting I added an effect called 'Brightness and Contrast' which allows me to tweak the lighting so that the colour will be some what similar to one another. Doing this lowers the chances of the audience being distracted by the light changing brightness in between animations and make them focus more on the actual animation itself.  

I also created some fade transitions in between each animations and the text so that it would not be a hard cut, also it's more pleasing to the viewer to watch. 



Whilst editing this I also thought about if I should add any audio to it and if it should have sound effects in it. I decided to add some music to it just so that it wouldn't be silent and it'll make it a little more interesting to watch, however the music to me was very hard to choose and I didn't really know what kind of genre of music or how to make the music fit into the animations. If I could have more time to choose the music I would be that just down to me having poor time management.
