Mazed


 The last couple of weeks have been quite hectic with finishing the storyboard for Mazed. Some alterations were needed for the story, a scene was added to explain why the piskies was the reason for why John (one of the farmers) was stuck in the bog. I was also struggling a bit with connection the horses out on the moor to the piskies and why they were angry with the farmers for scaring the horses away. This is explained in the written story, but could be quite confusing in the visual one. I figured that if we changed the last scene so that the piskies were sitting on one of the horses, it would make it clear.

Finally the storyboard is done. So many small changes were needed throughout the whole process, the last bit was putting everything in the ‘safe zone’ of the screen. After studying photography earlier I’m used to putting basically everything in the Golden Ration. In film on the other hand, I have to think about the screen size and the fact that maybe half of someone face may get cut if it’s too far to the left or right.
I’ll defiantly remember this to next time, because it was quite painful to go through all the images and move everything just a tiny bit to the side.      


Here's the animatic. (The drawings for this storyboard are quite quick and sketchy..)

Life Drawing


This life drawing session we had a look at drawing the light instead of drawing the shadows and outlines, as you normally would start drawing a pictures.
Still need to practice messuring so the upper body isn't too big or legs too short etc.
