Overall this brief was very interesting as it was a good challenge as I have never produced a documentary before or experimented with animation to this extent. I found the animation part of the brief quite difficult as I struggled with the balance between having the images draw themselves in an interesting way that would capture attention whilst fitting all the information within 60 seconds. However this process was very insightful as I plan to explore animation further within my briefs moving forward as I enjoyed the process. Despite this enjoyment I felt the outcome could have been made to a higher standard if longer than a week had been spent on the brief. The short nature of the brief was both helpful and difficult at times as it meant I had to learn and adapt to new software quickly resulting in having a working knowledge after a week which was helpful. However reduced the quality of the final outcome as there was limited time for development. In addition it was interesting to have to consider how the documentary would be viewed on social media/ an iPhone as this limited the documentary, in relation to the size the video was designed too. However the use of captions allows the video to be viewed without sound and aids understanding of the illustrations which is something I hadn't noticed/thought about before. Overall the final documentary has been finished to a good standard considering the time restraint and limited knowledge of animation.
