Abstract:
"Compared to live-action films, people have more freedom for visual explorations when making animations. Therefore, visual exaggeration can always been found in animated projects. This thesis focuses on how filmmakers can use visual juxtaposition as a device to push the image of animated projects by manipulating shapes, colors, tone and movements. Furthermore, it will provide a
detailed demonstration to showcase the progression of applying juxtaposition for visual development in a two-minute animation short."
