Final Animatic

This was the final animatic. Parts of it will remain still imaged but most will be animated. I did struggle with finalising my ideas hence why I have not produced many animatics, as I spent too much time thinking. In my final film, sound will be added, along with more motion graphics and animated backgrounds.

Assignment 3 Practical Experiments

Lone Survivor:

This drawing was done in relation to a scene in Lone Survivor where the soldiers were on route to the mission landmark during the night. I feel as though it is a powerful piece as it does not show any specific features other than just silhouettes of the soldiers. The contrast of blue in the sky also sets the mood and atmosphere so show it being quite serious as there is a limited colour palette. [Drawing done by myself]

I was able to sketch over a picture of myself to show some line work and limited palette. It was done to show a different type of style, just like how Waltz with Bashir has a different type of style. This would be a very difficult style to animate in, as it takes a lot of line work which could be proven difficult in more complicated movement scenes.

This was an edit done of a picture which is like the Waltz with Bashir film cover where we see a shadowed effect of the character. This style is quite interesting, as it isn’t often used within animation however it will need to be experimented with more as it is not a style, I am comfortable drawing/animating in.
