Well here is my flipbook... when i uploaded the pictures i did them backwards by mistake. This project was a lot harder than i thought. My vision of what i wanted it to kept changing. It's basically a person trying to find who they are; in the end he does just that.

Hey Rob, I like the idea that you have used colors that take different shapes and transform to something else as well that you incorporated text. Very creative idea that brings variation of shapes, colors, and words together.

i thought this was a really cool concept. i think the use of words was really powerful. definitely the repetition with the added color at the end helped to reinforce your message. good job

I like the idea of involving text in the middle of the book. It was a powerful message while still being an interesting story.

I loved the message your flip book gives its viewers. Not only did you make sure your pictures physically moved, but you also put a deeper purpose to it as well. Awesome!

I really liked that you used words and pictures. Although I had a hard time reading some of them. I also liked that you used crayons and markers. This made it easier to see your pictures.

I loved how you used color to illustrate your point of "finding yourself". The rainbow theme does a great job of showing the multi-faceted elements of a person's personality through color. Very deep. Loved it!

this i thought was particulary neat because of all the colors and how they meshed together and what not. and the rainbow person was pretty cool as well. and the asking of "who are you?"

Great flip book. One of my favorites. I liked it because you had a theme and message rather than just trying to make an entertaining animaiton. Great message behind the book, and great job.

Rob, I loved the idea of your flip book. The message that it sends out is very powerful. I also enjoyed the colors in your flip book, it made the transitions look better!

I enjoyed the concept alot, and the colors you used. I don't know if you intentionally picked the colors, but they really enhanced the concept. Plus the consistency in your figure was really great. And you sued permanent marker am I right? If I'm wrong I'm sorry, but they often make things all blotty and just visually not right, but the thick lines it created gave dimension to not just the figure, but your composition. It's as if the viewer is writing it down themselves and they become part of the piece. Although having a flip book making the viewer be part of it, they control it not really become part of it, and you made the viewer do so so really I enjoyed your flip book alot.

Definitely some meaning behind this one....the colors must have taken you a long time to draw :)

I liked the fact that you had a unifying theme, and kept to it throughout. Good Job.
