[edit] Sean's AIM

I will be working on COOLYMPIA for the next two quarters. The end result will be a 30 minute pilot episode, a demo version of the episode, and an individual demo showcasing my own contributions to this episode. In addition to my COOLYMPIA work, I will be assisting others on their own AIMs with the musical compositions.

[edit] COOLYMPIA

My official jobs are:

[edit] Post-Production Supervisor

I will be overseeing the editing, graphics, sync sound, and basically assembling the final cut of the episode. It will be my responsibility to see that all animation, sound, and live action segments are in on time. I will also be in charge of printing the episode to tape and burning it to DVD, for which I will design the menu. For these tasks, I will be working in Final Cut Pro, DVD Studio Pro, and After Effects.

[edit] Musical Composer

I will be composing the music for the show using musical instruments and Digital Performer. For songs requiring vocals, I will be working with performers to get the results I need. I will be composing both incidental music (background music) and songs to be performed by characters.

[edit] Animator

I plan to contribute 2-3 animations totaling about 4-6 minutes in length. The premise of these animations is as yet undetermined, but as the pilot script gets developed further, I will have a clearer idea as to how I can tie them in to the episode's theme. There is a high chance I will be including my cartoon robot as a principal role in the show, where he will interact with live actors. I will be using a number of different animation styles, with a main focus on After Effects.

[edit] Trance TV

I will be producing and directing a psychedelic TV show for tctv (channel 22) starting the first week of February. A new episode will be made every month. It will be an experimental, psychedelic, ambient, video show that I will create with my friends, or anyone who is willing to help. It will be a very simplistic structure. Each episode will be created "on the spot" with no production planning. I will be using advanced final cut effects such as "vectorize color" and alpha blending. The show's purpose will be to help viewers fall into a trance or to meditate. There will be no budget because i will be using old, used dv tapes and free tctv equipment.
