Description
Ohhh there are so many things I wish I could change….
This project just ultimately proved that infographics just aren’t my thing. My mind is too heavily wired to sync with the music. For example, in a true infographic you shouldn’t need to pause to read any of it. Yeah, definitely not gonna get points for that. Other than that, about the same elements as my previous project. Trying to keep a recognizable theme with a few surprises here and there. Thought it be cool to have some little “fun facts” or trivia in there on each movie but I started taking shortcuts after awhile cause it was taking too long. Also planned on narrating it, but the only way to do that was to record myself and I’m just not quite ready for that either, even though it would have helped you guys out in reading it. These things I believe are better narrated.
I’m not entirely proud of how it turned out; probably been thinking to long and to hard on it. I was already late in submitting it and had to get an extension. It took awhile for me just to come up with some kind of design or layout and I got stuck countless times.Then the music wouldn’t cooperate so I started merging several soundtracks. I wanted to polish it up with some VO clips but I am just running out of time and gotta let it go. It finally got to the point where I just had to compromise with my mistakes or problems and just finish the darn thing! I’m about sick of looking at it honestly. I only have a week to do my last project….I need a miracle, but it should be easier and a whole lot shorter.
With all that said, I did thoroughly enjoy learning all about the history of DWA!! That was the best part, even though some of it will be outdated in less than a year. If you find any info that seems inaccurate please tell me and I’ll annotate it. Wikapedia was my main friend; in media credibility is not as big a deal…you know how it is. But there wasn’t time to do research anyway. However I feel better in noting my sources:
ElectricDragon505’s 7 “Animation Lookback videos:
Also a BIG THANK YOU once again to thefanvideoer2 and her help with some of the info and suggesting the Homeland theme score from Spirit. It was the first thing that spurred me on the layout. As a fun fact from me, I’ve only seen 23/31 of their movies. Clearly I’m a bit biased with Dragons, lol!
Footage: Is of course all 31 movies of dreamworks. Mostly trailers.
Scores: “Homeland” by Hans Zimmer. [Spirit] “Test Drive” by John Powell. [HTTYD] “Zoosters Breakout” by Hans Zimmer. [Madagascar]
