Major Project: Animatic Sample

I've been working with Giacomo Rita for the sound design of the animation, we settled on a theme during the Minor project so the idea was to take this and expand on it in the animation, this is a sample of what it would sound like. I only have this section because there will be some minor changes in terms of timing and selected scenes.

Minor Project - Brief Update

Rigging

The plan for my character rigs at the moment is to have them functioning on a basic level so they can be ready in to be rendered out as Turnarounds, it is essential to have working facial rigs for both characters so the final video shows off their characteristics, this does mean however that the first couple weeks in the major would be spent plusing the rigs, getting them ready for animation

Animatic

The Sound Effects are nearly finalised, this is just an update on changes I made to the beginning and ending of the story, this video is what I sent to the artist who would is composing music for the animation, this is why a TimeCode SMPTE and an initial countdown is included in the video

Turnaround

I also sent a sort previs of my Turnaround, I could have the same musical feeling from the animatic in the Turnarounds

Minor Project - Animatic Draft 2

Minor Project: Acorn - Animatic Draft 1

This is very much a work in progress, and the sounds are temporary but are indicative of what I would want in the final to be.

Fantastic Voyage - The Pitch

Fantastic Voyage Pitch

Fantastic Voyage - Animatic

Fantastic Voyage - Rough Animatic

Still quite a way to go, but this is the animatic so far...

There a bits in this version where there's an extended period with nothing happening, at this point, they'll be a label to the organelle and information on what it can do (little tidbits of information)

I like the hand drawn quality to the animatic, but I want to bleed in some colour to give the viewer an idea of what the environment would be like..

As for the Music, the beginning and ending track are royalty free, and if all goes well the mid section with the soundtrack should be what I'm finally using, I've emailed the manger and the musician to see if it were possible to use it to support my animation

In terms of the final animation with the intro of the student who's fallen asleep, I'll be using layers in after effect to bring a 2d image to life and at the end when he wakes up I plan to animate each frame, it   isn't out of the question to record live footage, but this is what i envision.
