Metamorphosis Animation


The project we had to do was to create in animation. Now it was not just a regular animation. It was a story a movie, and in the movie we had to have constant change. That is why the project is called "Metamorphosis Animation" meaning changing animation. A requirement was to use three different types of animations throughout the animation. Weather it was a person changing into a rock or even a girl changing clothes. We also had to create a soundtrack in GarageBand to really bring our animation to life.

Our story was called "Kim Changes Dreams". We used three types of animations throughout the animation, Stop-motion, Claymation, and photoshop. Our movie had 6 different scenes. The first scene was Kim going to sleep, Falling, Candy Land, Video Game, Dr. Sherman's lab, and Kim waking up. Our plot was Kim falls asleep in class and starts dreaming. She has a nightmare so she changes her dreams with a remote. Kim has another nightmare but her remote is broken so she has to teleport through a portal.

The beginning of the animation is Kim is in Teacher Peabody’s boring class. She starts to fall asleep and she starts to have a nightmare where she is falling into a pool of sharks. A remote appears and she presses the button and her dream changes. The middle was Her dream switches to a candy land where evil gummy bears come to attack her so she uses the remote to switch her dream and it is a video game scene. She switches her dream again. Finally the ending was The next place where Kim is transported is an evil doctor’s lab. She sees all of the things Dr. Sherman is doing and his Shermanators attack her but her remote is broken. Kim has to defend herself because she can’t change her dream and run away. The purpose of out whole animation was At some point in time you have to face your fears and sometimes there is not an easy way out.
