Conversation

=Exercise 3= I'm especially excited about this exercise as I get to choose a clip from one of my favourite movies of all time - //Back to the Future!

////

**Here is the conversation transcribed:**

Marty: // //Doc, she didn't even LOOK at him. Doc: This is more serious than I thought. Apparently your mother is amorously infatuated with YOU instead of your father! M: Woah...w..wait a minute, Doc, are you trying to tell me that my mother...has got the hots for me?! D: Precisely! M: Woah. This is heavy. D: There's that word again. "Heavy". Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the Earth's gravitational pull?//

// I just think this on-screen relationship is so dynamic and funny that it came to my mind instantly.

Not in storyboard form per say, but I have sketched out ideas, some of which are really silly, others possible.

Some inspirational videos: media type="youtube" key="X13dDnRDN7I" height="344" width="425" I like the treatment of the laughter and struggle in this clip.

media type="youtube" key="HiASw4sk98Q" height="344" width="425" I like how at the end, the type give a feeling of being lost (zoom out of all the type used) which relates to the clip itself.

media type="youtube" key="ZxTgGR6_1ps" height="344" width="425" I like how the text changes to blue on white, and uses the letters itself as a background.

Please excuse my guerrilla-style storyboarding.
 * Storyboard:**



I first tried making my compositions in illustrator, but this turned out to be more confusing. I stumbled on this tutorial and it was quite helpful:

Process:

FINAL

media type="custom" key="5346831" I didn't stick to my original storyboard entirely because some ideas I had were just too ambitious and hard to implement. I had some great ideas but no idea as to how it's done. With more practice in After Effects, I might figure out how.
