Animatic Update

Work to show for week 1

This is essentially only a walk cycle, which can be reused throughout the piece.

Over the past week I spent far too much time learning toon boom and trying to work out the technical kinks I have been running into. Because it has cost me so much time and I foresee it continuing, I've decided to use photoshop instead.

Sorry there's not much.

Junior Crit Feedback

• It comes off like the old creature realizes the little guy is useful (not exactly the intent)
• One more tree scene to establish “usefulness?"
• Some shots where it was dragged out far too long
• Having the old guy have to care for the little guy somehow
• Has to make a decision about saving/protecting the little guy
• Two instances of the little guy being in trouble, the first old guy is indifferent, the second he decides to save him
• Do more with the water scene
• Trim down walking profile shots 
• Trim down sleeping dissolves
• Show old guy in pain getting fruit
• Switch shot angles up a bit
• Camera moves
• Concentrate on the background layers (NO DEAD SPACE)
• The little guy WINNING HIM OVER
• Spend more time with the actions of the characters (character DEVELOPMENT)
