Hamilton Animation
|
For my Genius hour project I decided to animate. I picked one of my favorite musicals/ movie. I have been wanting to animate some of the songs from this musical for a long time. But never had the the time or the motivation to do so. When I heard about the Genius hour project I thought this was the perfect time to do what I have been wanting too for so long.
I'm hoping to do 4-5 songs. I may do more or some short ones as well. Just have to see how my time works out. |

What is Hamilton? |
Animation is "the technique of photographing successive drawings or positions of puppets or models to create an illusion of movement when the movie is shown as a sequence." This just means a drawing, photos taken one small step at a time to create movement. Some examples you might know of is SpongeBob,Toy story, Little Mermaid. There are a bunch more but these are just a few.

"An American Musical is a sung-and-rapped-through musical by Lin-Manuel Miranda. It tells the story of American Founding Father Alexander Hamilton" (Wikipedia) This as it says is about Alexander Hamilton, his friends, enemy's, family and just how his life before, during and after the revolution war. It talks about his life full of war and love, cheating and death. We mostly see Hamilton's life but we get too see others as well. Like Aaron Burr, Thomas Jefferson, Eliza Hamilton, Philip Hamilton,Angelica Schuyler and many more. We get to see there pain, love, trust crack, hate and later there deaths.
