AM Short Film, Refining/Blocking
 
 
This is still in the early stages of animation, but it shows where I’m going with the story. The first 3 shots are in refining and the rest of the film is still in blocking.
I’m having a great time with this....learning sooooooooo much!!!
Thanks for stopping by!

AM Assignment Class 4, Shot 2- Polish
 
 
Not done yet.....  :o)
 
This was what I turned in for our final week... it’s not done, but we weren’t expected to be done yet.
The Lip Sync is still in blocking, the props (file folder and megaphone) still need work, the secondary characters in the over-the-shoulder shots are still in blocking, the facial expressions still need work, Eddie’s chin-rub is still rough, some of the overlap hasn’t been refined... etc.
 
I received great comments and even compliments from my mentor on this! He

More breakdowns, more acting, more info in general... the shot is progressing, but still a long way to go.

AM Assignment Class 4, Shot 2- Layout
 
Ha ha ha! We’re ‘acting’, sort of!  =)
This was really fun, and also really hard... there’s a lot riding on the choices that are made at this stage.... basically, I’ll be working on this everyday for a couple of months, so *no pressure*. ;o)
Gotta thank JD for helping me out with Eddie. I couldn’t have done it without him!

AM Assignment Class 4, Shot 2- Planning
 
So after weeks and weeks of scanning movies, I’ve narrowed my choices down to 3. That was hard!!
....so, these are the choices for my first two-character shot. Here we go!
