Patrick Pleau, a French Canadian has created the Bocalophobe. He created this by himself and proves that he is a very intelligence and gifted created. The programmes that he used include, Adobe After Effects CS4, 3D Studio Max 2010, Photoshop CS4, Adobe Premiere Pro CS4, Adobe Flash Professional CS4 and Red Giant Magic Bullets Look.
This animation is very good when you consider that the creator put this all together himself and when the blends of design are considered. The animation is accompanied with music and although it is in another language, its beat fits the activities perfectly. The story is about a fish who is looking for freedom. However, there is an aspect of the story that I found complex and difficult to understand. Why were crisps and fish cola added to the bowl? I did not understand the relevance of this, unless it was to show cruelty to the fish! All in all, the blend of different resources, pen and photo shop etc was very impressive.

Hi there Simon,
ReplyDeleteThe chips and soda thing was a reference to the fish playing video games. A subtle criticism of the young generation of video gamers having bad habits like eating junk food and such while playing games :) that was the whole metaphor of the music video where television and video games keep the fish inside an excluded place.
Hope it helps :)
