Preparation: Tik-Tok

 During our class this week, we talked about tiktok. At the end of the session, we were assigned a brief to either research demographics of our potential target market or create a promotional video for our project using Tik-Tok. 

It is evident that over the last 3 terms we have all completed a lot of research. Therefore, I wanted to try out something new. Even though I have not started my 3D actual model, I decided that I was going to promote the idea behind my project. To elaborate, I want to create a fun and interactive video showcasing my 2D work and the 3D prototypes that we have also created during this week.

Before starting my Tik-Tok, I wanted to complete a very rough storyboard so that I have a basic idea of what do to in my Tik-Tok.

This is the storyboard:

Tik-Toks are usually seen from 15 seconds to 1 minute. However, it is important to note that a promotional video should be short in catchy in order to grab the users attention. A one minute video could be too long for someone to watch. Therefore, I am aiming for a 15 second video. 

The first scene will be me thinking of what to do. Then a dream bubble will be formed to show the user what my ideas consist of. I will have multiple images of cavemen flash quickly and then the camera will snap back to reality and form a lamp bulb over my head to show that I have an idea. I will then grab the ipad and start sketching. It will zoom into the ipad to form a transition and show the timelapse of me creating the idea. Then, i will zoom out the camera and show the piece in 3D as a prototype. Then, I will spin around it 360 degrees and finish the video with a black screen with a name on or possibly saying 'shop now at: ....'

I think I have a solid plan formed. The final outcome may vary drastically but I will try to keep it like this as I like the idea. 

Let's create!
