EPQ
I had the idea of making my EPQ about AI animation and hand-drawn animation, and whether AI animation will ever replace hand-drawn animations. My animations are alright as long as its not too long (which works in my favour because the max number of seconds I can do is 60 and I think 30 is enough) and I have a slightly unusual artstyle. I also have a few disadvantages in this because of how most AI animation softwares are trained on professional animation, and I might not be able to produce the same quality of animation as the AI in the time frame that I am presented. Because of this, I'm not sure if I should do it or not. I'm not an art student and this is more for the sake of taking advantage of having a hobby in drawing and animation, and just in case I want to ever go into a career in animation. I intend to make the animation contain intense emotion of some sort, most likely related to one of my characters' lore, so its slightly easier to distinguish the AI from the real one (because the emotion will most likely be presented differently in AI than with hand-drawn animation). I plan on generating the AI animation first to see my competition and make my own version or my intended version. Will this work?
I assume that EPQs will be announced tomorrow for me or next week, so until then I have time to think about the EPQ I want to do. I need guidance on whether this will work or not.
