Since I had time to tweak parts of my animation before the final crit, I thought I would play around with the setting I drew to see if I could add a small piece to introduce my animation. It was already pre-coloured and shaded, so I could instantly re-open it and see where it would take me.
I initially thought it would be a good idea to use this setting for a more fancier opening title, having the words 'Match Maker' on the roof of the house in the same style as the inter titles I made in the beginning before I actually started my animation. But once I placed them on the piece, due to the colour and the font, it ended up looking like 'Watch Waker', so inevitably, it would not work.
I still had time to try something else, so I thought I would place my match stick characters in the window of the house, like I had originally planned, but lower the opacity to half way so it would look more realistic. I then animated them so the match stick woman turns towards the matchstick man, and then the camera zooms in, introducing the audience to the pair, without being too invasive and going straight into the dining room.
Though I do like the end result, I feel like it is unnecessary. I played around with this piece because I didn't want to leave out something I spent a good amount of time on, however I felt like it wasn't really needed and detracts from the actual storyline of the sequence. Not only that, but I had the music for my animation in perfect timing and with this added in the beginning, alters every beat I had in time with certain movements, so I thought it was best off to just simply leave this bit out.
