The came up with the title 'Achromatic Tranquility' because i believe it best describes the feeling or perception that my movie has, it means neutral and peaceful. It is the clean, white platforms and the soft rotating movements that give the movie this appearance and i then teamed it with the music "Relief" by Gurdonark which adds to this effect. The sounds are very still to start off with, almost mesmerizing and give a sense of seclusion and isolation, as the movie ends the music gets deeper and slightly more intense.
The beginning of my movie i wanted to have some mystery behind what my models looked like, so i started off with a dark underwater scene where i pan across the model slowly showing some of its form, after this we are taken out of the water into bright daylight creates a contrast. The models are then shown in an array of different shots panning up, down and around the models to really feel like you know the space, i then close my film by drifting through my models for the last time, slowly and ending with a darker time of day to show time change.
I made my animations simple rotations because it gives a dreamy and passive sense to the film, but also because i felt it suited my models, especially the larger platforms, and i had some of them looking quite dormant. The animations are also deliberately not all synced together because i wanted to have my movements quite natural and not contrived or forced to look like it was doing a 'routine'.
for the texture i decided to stick with the initial 'shredded paper' look because it is also quite organic suiting my movie and underwater it looks very interesting for my stating shots, almost resembling seaweed with the bright green coloring. Because my main texture was quite dominant i chose to leave my platform models white so that there was no clashing or competition between the two. I also chose to film my models in daylight to best showcase the textures and i feel like the sun and blue skies complete my overall feeling and look i was trying to achieve.

Final 3 screen shots
This screen shot exhibits my models and displays the simplistic and harmonious feeling that my movie had.
I like this screen shot because the water rippled effect gives it quite an abstract, artistic quality. I also like how at first glance you may not notice but when you look further there are more of my models hidden behind the main model.
This was another abstract view i like, i think the contrast of light and dark works well with this shot, the model in front is very bright but it also shows the texture, and behind it, in the background are the rest of my models on a much smaller scale, revealing the shape and overall look.

design ideas
My objects are quite angular and pointed,and I have repeated the same shape multiple times but in irregular sizez and in random formation. I have also added other different shaped objects for interest, because I didnt want my overall look to just look repeated.I like exploring with pattern and at the moment I have choosen to paint the objects in a pattern that almost resembles shredded paper which is quite interesting however I am not too sure if I will use this for my final pattern as yet, I will keep experimenting. For the animation I would like the objects to spin and move, almost interact with eachother and if possible have a larger object fold out to reveal my design.
