About One More Time アニメーション短編映画

『One More Time』は、2020年のシンガポールにおける隔離期間中、Superhero Meコミュニティへの励ましの手紙として制作された短編アニメーション作品です。ナレーションはコミュニティのメンバーがそれぞれの自宅で録音し、孤立の中で過ごした経験や、困難に立ち向かう力についての共通の思いを語っています。作品に親しみと温かみのある個性を与えるため、手描き風のビジュアルが選ばれました。希望の感情を表現するために淡い色彩を用い、デジタルアニメーションのツールと手描きのフレームを組み合わせることで、伝統的な質感を保ちながら効率的な制作を実現しています。

Unique Properties
The brief was to create a letter of encouragement to our friends with special needs during the Singapore lockdown from April to June 2020. It involved narration by the Superhero Me community. From their homes, they voiced struggles with isolation united by a shared perspective of resilience to encourage everyone else facing this global challenge.
Dimensions & Packaging
Full HD 1920 x 1080. 24 frames per second.

Production Technology
We started the project by first translating the script into a storyboard. Hand drawn look was decided for the visual next. Light colors were used to create a hopeful feeling.

Procreate was used for rough animation. Adobe animate was used to create refined animation. We then render it out and import it into photoshop to draw over with natural media looking brushes. We used After Effects for some of the 3D looking parts of the animation, animation that is not as fluid, and to do compositing.
Design Challenge
The challenge was finding a hopeful message, which is the core message of the film, to spread when the news of Covid 19 pandemic just hit the world. It was especially hard when doom and gloom were everywhere.
Research
Type of Research.
Combine hand made animation with digital animation.
Leveraging on digital and traditional techniques, to create a film that looks personal and warm, yet completed in a faster manner.

Research objectives. To create traditional looking animation using digital software to work efficiently and communicate the message of the film effectively.

Methodology. Digital software such as After Effects reduces the laborious part of traditional animation technique.
Inspiration
COVID 19 has wreaked havoc on the world with no end in sight. As Superhero Me's mission of fostering a more inclusive Singapore is dependent on bringing together children with and without special needs, this pandemic, and its accompanying isolation has brought significant struggle to its community and efforts.
The inspiration to create this film was to spark positivity and find ways to reduce the feeling of isolation, not just for the community but for the rest of the world.
Project Duration
The film was made all on remote with creatives from Singapore, The Philippines and the US. Voices and script were provided locally in Singapore. The project began in May 2020 and was completed in August 2020.
Operation Flow
The film is made to play on social media platforms such as Vimeo and Facebook. 24 frames per second.
