The documentation linked to the production will be full and detailed and there will be
evidence that the production management and scheduling of the project has been
effective and carried out in a professional manner. The techniques used in the
production of the work are likely to be related to an understanding of current trends in
the industry.
Planning
Brainstorm / mind map (add extra pages if necessary)
Risk assessment: Are there any health and safety issues you may encounter?
Boiling hot water Boiling hot water from the kettle could scold your
skin and can leave permanent damage, be careful when using the
kettle. Hold it by the handle and this can be avoided, also hold it at a
right angle and it wont spill.
Breaking the cup Breaking the cup would not only be a problem for
the production but the broken china from it could cut your hand and
also leave quite a mess. This can be avoided by taking extra care when
handling the cup and not hold anything else while tampering with it.
Spilling liquids spilling liquids like milk or water, you could slip and
hurt yourself. This can be avoided by taking extra care when not
filming.
Discuss any legal issues you may face. Eg; sound, plagiarism, age restrictions
Sound would not be a problem as I will be using Royalty Free Music that is
music that can be used in productions without having to deal with copyright
issues.
Plagiarism wont be a problem either, this advert is all my own idea and I
havent seen anything like it from my knowledge so I think I will be ok on the
plagiarized part.
I worry if I will have the problem of the Twinnings company will block my video
because I'm using their brand that they made and I havent given any credit to
the company. So because I'm using Twinnings I will have to make sure I'm not
putting the company in a bad light.
What are the different possibilities you could explore using this format?
I could explore movement in this format, learning how to move objects is going to be
really helpful as I want it all to line up nice and look professional, I dont want to
overstep it as well, I want to make sure that I havent moved the models too far.
The sugar cubes could be made in different shapes as well which could really help.
What are the limitations of using this format? (i.e what problems/ obstacles might
you have?)
Moving objects too far would be a real issue as it could mess up the whole
production, I want to make sure I move it only a little bit during photographs, if I
accidentally move it too far then it could look very unprofessional and that is the
opposite of what we want.
Lighting can be a big problem, when using natural light the lightness in the room will
change around meaning one photo it could be normal and then another could be
darker, this can be a big problem and look very unprofessional, you can avoid this by
using lamps
Camera problems are also a problem, moving the camera can be a problem as then
it wont look the same as before and that can really be a pain.
What imaginative or inventive animations have you seen which use this
format?
Add in links and screen shots of three examples of animations using this format.
Some examples of animation that also use this format that I have watched would be
an Advert for Green Tea which I watched in class.

Another one would be a Lurpack advert which uses stop motion to create a man who
is made out of lurpack butter.

another stop motion advert I saw which I like would be the Xbox advert, it uses
plastiscine to model shapes and games.

Subject
What will the subject of your animation be?
The subject of my animation would be about relaxing and having a cup of tea,
millions drink Tea everyday in the United Kingdom as it is the #1 most popular
beverage. Thats why I think it is such a good thing to advertise seeing as there are
so many tea brands everyone has different taste in what tea they like, advertising
your own brand is bound to get you more people. The storyline in short is about a
cup by itself and then all the ingredients that go into the cup make themselves.
Storyline
Describe the storyline of your animation. What events will happen to your
characters?
It will start with a cup by itself on a kitchen counter, then a tea bag will notice it and
alert his friends, then all of these objects such as the tea bag, Milk, Sugar cubes and
a spoon start heading towards the cup and then they all decide to make themselves
and the cup of tea is brewn.
Characters
What characters will be in your animation?
There are no certain characters in my advert but there are certain objects who have
goals in it.
The Teabag sees the cup by itself and wants to fulfill its goal of being in a cup of tea,
it then whistles to its friends and they all head together to the cup.
The teacup is just there on its own, it has no goal but it waits patiently to be made.
The sugar cubes are very enthusiastic, which ties in with the fact are made out of
sugar, they will jump on the kettle button to turn it on then head to the tea cup.
The milk is in a small jug and then uses the jug to move itself to the cup and pour
itself in.
