Scene 1


We have begun making our animated pictures on photoshop. We have started near the begining of our storyboard, the part where the camera zooms up into the night sky and you see the star with the title "Layla's Star." There is a dark blue background with a cloud effect over the top to make it look misty. On the paintbrush tool we found a star shape, so we put lots of little white stars over the sky. To make it appear that the camera is moving up to the sky we started putting stars at the top of the screen and then moving the stars down. As we did this we added more stars at the stop to keep it moving. As we got higher, a larger star comes down from the top of the frame and the title Layla's Star fades in. All together we had 19 fames and we uploaded them to i-movie. The picture clips needed to be short to keep the film looking smooth and as if it is moving, so we had to speed them up. We still need to film the begining of the film (the real life part) to add at the front of the animation, but we can add this after.
