Motion graphics 2.5D como medio de representación de los principales acontecimientos históricos de Riobamba.

Abstract

The aim of this research is to represent with an audiovisual product the main events of Riobamba city, using the Motion Graphics 2.5D technique. A documentary research methodology was used in the investigation of events to select the most important in Riobamba's history. In the creation of animations, we applied the methodology of Palomino and Rengel, based on five stages: in the needs analysis, we distinguished the lack of truthful information about the events in Riobamba city. In the design, we elaborated a moodboard for the characterization of characters, with this reference the script was written and each scene was drawn by means of the storyboard. For the development, several Motion Graphics software was used to vectorize and animate the scenes. In the next stage, a synchronization process of the narration and sound effects was executed to achieve a concordance between the graphics and the narrative. The animation was evaluated using the Delphi method, and then proceeded to the implementation through a reproducible and executable file in a universal format. In the stages within the history of Riobamba city, there were incongruences and discrepancies, both in dates of events and achievements that were attributed to scenarios of important events, therefore, economic, social, cultural, political, religious, temporal and geographical parameters were established to identify the most important and relevant events. The main events of Riobamba's history were projected and represented with scenarios, characters, figures and forms within an audiovisual production. The use of the 2.5D animation technique is recommended as a communication tool to the teaching-learning process for any subject.
