Script to screen - Briefing

A replacement module for creative play, but we'll be working alone which might be better or worse who knows. I think it'll be better as i wont be waiting on other people and I know if i create a story i care about i'll be working my ass off to get it to the best of my ability.

requirements for this module

Production bible
1 animatic

The limitations set to us are that the characters are in one environment and have two main characters focusing on a problem. I need to ask if these can be slightly fudged, such as a large environment with more than one location and secondary characters with small roles. Annabeth mentioned that there are certain things we should try to do to improve our work and in turn get a better grade such as animation reviews and breakdowns.

One of the reasons why i love annabeth is that she shows us some great and insiprational videos. I know that everyone was blown away by the antman animatic as they should cos it was fucking amazing. as well as 'work' by caltech and how they maximised small animations to create an animatic that was near enough a finished product. I'm unsure where I'll be using maya or experimenting with 2d but i think that would depend on the story. The story and script writing process is what is scaring me the most. Creative writing isnt really a muscle ive ever flexed so im nevous going into that realm.

Furthering into perspective

Im coming closer to realisation that storyboarding is a field that i want to keep exploring. This past semester we been tasked with a range of different mediums and techniuiqes which has been super challenging, requiring me to learn something new. The only problem I've had is that I get so tired from the research, I dont have the power to work and produce work I'm happy with. This is a minor problem as i know over time i'll become way more adpet and will have a much smoother workflow. I can say though that because of all this research time, I fallen back in love with drawing again. Maybe it has something to do with chris' life drawing classes but im actually drawing for fun again, and this is a feeling that i havent had for year. I'm trying drawing to become my new form of procrastination, because my mind just loves putting off work. This is a kind of 'procrastinion i did, when i should of been trying to do some modelling in maya i wanted to draw more s...

Animation Context

The first actual lecture of university was what i expected, a briefing of our first module. Most of the lecture consisted of Johnny beating the Gibbs' reflective cycle into our heads. I can see why the university wants us to utilize this type of reflection and I will definitely refer to it when I am first writing up my blogs, but in time i know that i will have each area of the cycle memorized, which can only help in my writing skills and well as my own self analysis. This module is on going throughout the year and we are tasked with writing a magazine article about an aspect of animation we are passionate about. Initially my intimidate thought was to look at the animation technique of One Punch Man as it i know it is a particularly difficult style of animation and i captures movement and speed so vividly. I do believe i should do some wide ranging research and look at other animation techniques that intrigue me.
