Final Version of my WWF Animation;
Under this post is all the supporting material.
WWF advert starting ideas and sketches
My first ideas for the WWF advert; I wanted to do somthing that relates to that 'Panda made my do it' slogan. It sounded baby-ish to me so I thought, hey! Why don't I animate a baby with a toy Panda that has stolen it's mothers mother to donate to WWF!
The idea is that a family have adopted a monkey into their family but they act completely normal with the situation. They have family photos up across the house like any normal family would. The mum is being interviewed on how the monkey is doing within the family like a check-up. She replies saying how he is doing good and then cuts to a few different shots of the monkey screwing around the house and messing everything up but the family act like nothing is going on and completely ignore it. The animation ends with the monkey throwing poo at the little girls face and it cuts to black then the WWF logo shows and a slogan comes up.

Idea:
The idea is that a
family have adopted a monkey into their family but they act completely normal
with the situation. They have family photos up across the house like any normal
family would. The mum is being interviewed on how the monkey is doing within
the family like a check-up. She replies saying how he is doing good and then
cuts to a few different shots of the monkey screwing around the house and
messing everything up but the family act like nothing is going on and completely
ignore it. The animation ends with the monkey throwing poo at the little girls
face and it cuts to black then the WWF logo shows and a slogan comes up.
Shot breakdown:
·
Scene
starts viewing houses down a street
·
The
camera goes into a house and into a front room
·
A
women sitting on a sofa holding a cup of tea, background is of some stairs and
front room looking, with photos of the family and a monkey with them looking
all happy.
·
Voice
over asking “So how has Fred been since he’s been with you?
·
The
lady replies with “yeah he’s been perfect actually; he’s really good with his
new brother and sister helping them with homework.”
·
Cuts
too- A little girl laying front down on a bed kicking her feet. Completely
ignoring a monkey in the background chucking paper everywhere and swinging on
the light trashing the place.
·
Cuts
back too- the women as before smiling and drinking her tea. Says “He’s also
helped David and I with the housework.”
·
Cuts
too- Mum at the sink washing, handing the plate to the monkey then smashing it.
·
Cuts
back too- the women again and says “Fred enjoys playing with the kids outside
too.”
·
Cuts
too- Two children playing catch with each other with a ball, then the door
opens and the monkey walks out, one of the children says “Hey Fred catch!” and
throws the ball to the monkey – Before it hits him it cuts
·
Cuts
too – Shot of the monkey catches the ball with a blank facial expression.
·
The
monkey then turns his hand over while standing still, and drops the ball.
·
Cuts
too – little girl smiling standing, poo hits her face and goes everywhere and
runs down her face.
·
Fade
to black
·
WWF
logo comes up. – Caption, “You don’t have to adopt, to adopt.”
Programs to be used:
·
Adobe
Photoshop for backgrounds designs
·
Autodesk
Maya for 3D backgrounds
·
Adobe
flash for the animation clean ups
Style:
The style will be
quite cartoon looking in the animation and the 3D background will also be the
same, maybe using the toon tool on Maya to add the black outline.
More Chimp sketches and story boards.
More Chimp sketches...I like the middle one.
Rough story boards for the WWF Chimp idea..
Monkey sketches
Monkkeyyy Designs
More Chimp sketches for my WWF animation.
Really rough/quick sketch for the layout for a background to be made in 3D on Maya for the WWF animation.
Background Designs
Concept designs for the bedroom, living room and the garden
Bed Room
Living Room
Back of Garden
Mother Design Sheet
Mother design. I might use this same character in my final project too, I really like the look of her.
WWF Storyboard - Final?
So here is my second REvamp of the WWF storyboard.
Works now as you find out what the Chimp does bad in the second part of the animation, so the gag becomes funny instantly instead of the same joke running throughout.

WWF Animatic (With some sounds)
So the voices need to be recorded and added in but this is rough timing without the speech.
Family Protraits
Wild 3D Backgrounds appeared!
Finished 3D background have appeared!!
Looking swish as ever.Will be perfect with the animation! (He says)
Sofa mother scene #1
These 3 pictures below are me trying to decide the best angle for perspective on throwing a ball.
Not sure which I like best.
Monkey kitchen Animation Test #1
Monkey animation test for him snatching the plate off the mother in the kitchen scene.
Animating a smashing plate is quite fun!
I'm currently animating a plate smashing!
It's proving fun but difficult since I want it fast then to slow down.
Monkey Catching Ball Test
First test of the monkey catching the ball, but decided to change it as it looked to stiff and boring.- Not animated enough.
Added: Patting and other shots finished!
I added a bit of animation to the kitchen scene where the mother pats the monkey on the head to show her loving the monkey no mater what he does.
A frame from the boy getting poo thrown in his face!
First bit of Lip Sync done! Although the voices will be changed at a later date.
Nearly done WWF
This is my WWF animation nearly finished, with some scenes missing and editing touches needed.
Things to be done; Lip sync
Change the eyes (To dead looking)
More editing to be done.
Redo the establishing shot and the 3D street
- NEW HOUSES!
Modeled by Julian
WWF test before final editing
Before final editing!
After playing around with editing and getting feedback from peers, I also believe this telling of the 'story' works so much better only using a single lipsync so you gauge whos talking then to let the story flow afterwards. I'm happy so far, but needs a tiny bit more tweaking.
Whos done what?
The following is who did what in regards to the WWF animation;
