Crazy Dreams

Crazy dreams, exhibited for the HUM 203 course, is a minute long animation movie filled with imagination. A computer software program, Adobe Photoshop, was primarily used to create this short animation. Utilizing Adobe Photoshop tools: paint brushes, vectors, shapes, and backgrounds were created throughout this design. With the addition of Adobe ImageReady, animation processes, such as: tweening and stop motion animation, created vitality within the piece. By orchestrating the scene variations and sequencing of ideas the scheme leaves viewers with awe aspiration.

This creation represents a visual interpretation of how inquisitive time can be represented in various forms. The animated visual helps the transform the usual “nightmarish” experiences of dreams for common perceptions. It speaks to the prevalence by which we are always experiencing time in fictional and even non-fictional representations. The transformation of the individual and back represents the goals that we often try to signal ourselves to think. Crazy Dreams is an altered reality of this belief – a multiple jarring experience that ponders the realism of dreaming.
