Animation Class lecture 3

Today we spent an hour watching and listening to Walt Disney talking about the Plausible Impossible (IMDB). The message for those seeking to explore the role of the architecture in a movie about buildings - 'Architecture as Actor' - is consistency. The various ideas that were discussed by WD were all made plausible because of some vague connection with the real world - momentum for example - and most importantly because they were presented in a consistent manner. The lesson for architecture as actor is to ensure consistency of viewpoint - and if there is a switch, then to ensure that the switch of viewpoint is made obvious in the manner of the switch (perhaps not a cut transition).

The second hour was spent on the first few slides of the 'storyboard' powerpoint. Ref: BBSC / ARCH
