Update on progress

Due to technical issues with my laptop, the programs and files, I have been unable to finish my video on time but here is some of my progress so far to show I am working on it.
Woman in black shot:
Sorting out the bones and effected areas on the character, I had some difficulty with this as it would bend the background as well but by entering the settings and making it sure you couldnt render the background I managed to fix it:

Rendering the video, this took a few attempts as it wouldn't include the background:

Flower falling shot:
Lines show the path of the petals and I used the rotate tool to help give the petals a more realistic look.

Shot:

Walking shot:

This shot was difficult because I hand issues with the lantern and then having to go back onto the photoshop file and connect the feet and legs together or I couldnt render them properly.

There are some framing issues with these shots but Im working on it and I tried to upload it but it was showing up with an error.

 Due to file errors Im having to rework n sort things out but here is a preview of my work until I can add more but I have already explained this to Becky.

Unsure which version I prefer yet so I chose to upload both to show a variation  between them

Levi Strauss Theory - Binary Opposites

Levi Strauss's theory was of the contrast of binary opposites for example Good vs Evil, Antagonist vs Protagonist. We don't just understand words purely on meaning but also on reflecting the opposite hence it being binary. Strauss uses this theory to link heavily with how we perceive the world. The understanding of the idea of a villain depends entirely on our understanding of the world as one member of the audience may perceive 'evil' differently to another person. The theory enables the audience to have an understanding of the narrative before it even begins and having opposites within the media allows for a climax and equilibrium to make it more interesting to the audience.
Although I don't have a set character for the role of villain or hero, this theory also still applies to my work with the idea of life and death, with life being the positive and death being the negative role and the video follows the idea of the battle between the two forces.
