For this
unit, we had to create an animatic storyboard that would tell a cohesive and
flowing story. I worked with Marwan and Xenia on this. We began by coming up
with the story and drawing the sequences together, but we later split off and
focused on our own scenes as well, which served to save time.
I did the 2nd scene with the memory, and the 4th scene where the shark saves his son. I should point out many of the original drawings for these sequences were done by my group mates initially as well, but I then scanned them into Photoshop and traced them before editing together in Premier. Some of my drawings were also used in one of Xenia's sequences. I also worked with Marwan on the 4th sequence and he drew and traced some of the frames as well, which can be found on his DVD and blog.
Overall I
think this project turned out alright, but we could certainly have improved. A
lot of the final drawings look a little inconsistent due to separate editing,
and the final scenes could have been outlined. My scenes as well could look
better, because one is completely outlined and the other is only half outlined,
which creates a little bit of consistency. I could have edited them a little
better as well, perhaps with more transitions. As a team we probably could have
worked a little better and quicker as well, as the frames took so long to draw
and edit that we ended up falling behind a bit. Ultimately though I think we
pulled through.
