Week 11 - Week 15
For our final project, Mr Hafiz explained to us the outcome of it which is we have to create either a tunnel book or a webcomics. For the story, we can use our precious project which is Graphic Novel, find a new story for it, poem or song to illustrate. I know I want to do the webcomics at the first because it get my attention and interest. Not only that, I also think that tunnel book are quite too hard for me even though web comics are hard too.After I decided I want to do a song webcomics, I started think what song should I choose because there are too many song that I like.
I like to listen to music while I'm doing my work. So when the song - "1-800-273-8255" by Logic ft Alessia Cara & Khalid pop out, I get the ideas for it. This is because this song are a song which the singer doesn't want someone to took their life easier and help is always available when they need. This song details the story of someone calling the NSPL and wanting to commit suicide but after a conversation with NSPL representative, the caller soon after decide he wants to live.

Not only that, the singer which is Logic said that he did a fan tour where he went to fan's houses and shared meals with them, hung out with them and also played the album before it came out. One of his fan told he that his music have save their life. Logic was shock because he wasn't even trying to save nobody's life and he was thinking what if he really does, then what will really happen?
So basically this song have three part which are : Perspective of someone who want to comment suicide, Perspective of someone who comfort he/she, Perspective of he/she doesn't want to suicide anymore and choose to live. After understanding more about this song, I started sketch out the ideas and make story board of it.

After that, I started drawing on Adobe Photoshop and decide the position and the looking of the background and middle ground.

After that I finish drawing, I arrange the panels probably in Adobe Photoshop to see if the background working. After that, I try to use Madefire to create a parallax webcomics but at last I use Adobe Animate CC to create it because Madefire crash too many times. Because I didn't have any class that use Adobe Animate CC and I didn't learn it before, so I just learn some basic knowledge from youtube on the spot.
In Adobe Animate CC, I import each drawing separately so that it can move. I also arrange the layer and panels in order so that they look accordingly to my plan. After that, I adjusted the timeline of each item to make sure they didn't more too far and didn't crash together. At last, I feel like something is missing so I decided to add audio of the song in it. The audio that I add didn't have any voice, it is just instrumental audio. After I settle everything, I convert it into HTML5 File because Mr Hafiz more prefer HTML 5 instead of video.
