Week 3 - Storyboard and Animatic



This is the first, and probably last, draft of my scene's storyboard. It shows the main points of what is going to be happening within the scene, though more information on what is to be happening will be displayed with the animatic. I placed important information for what is happening under each of the frames. Hopefully this way it can be seen what is supposed to be going on in the scene. If any major problems are found within the plot of my scene or in any of the poses, animations, etc, those will be found and sifted out by the animatic I'm about to begin working on.



This is my first attempt at an animatic. It's not perfect but it displays the basic premise of what is to happen in the scene, with basic camera angles and frames, etc. Though there are still quite a few bugs with it and a redrafting of this animatic will be necessary. Many of the camera angles displayed in this animatic aren't exactly what I have planned out in my mind and I wasn't fully successful in depicting them, while others just don't work as well as I had hoped. Hand drawing it didn't help as it restricted me to retaining the static images I had created, without being able to edit just the camera angles and framing. For more freedom with these camera controls, the next revision of my animatic will be created in Maya with the AndyRig with some simple pose to pose animations.
