Production Principles
Audio
When listening to the given audio, I began writing down things that I felt could be usable.
Developing Scripts
This was our first draft of the script from the Interim 1 Presentation
After finding out from the clients that the statistics said were inaccurate, we tweaked the script a bit
Moodboards
At the start of the pre-production process we researched various artists who had an exaggerated textured style as well as works that contain surreal representations of non-physical entities.
The screenshot below is from our Interim 1 presentation
In order to get a feel of what the clients were looking for, in the interim 1 presentation, we also started looking into colour and character design.
Storyboard Development
Below is a rough storyboard I sketched down for the first client presentation
Omar and I, after recieving feedback stating it was too negative, then started to develop the storyboard further so that the film had a more positive feel.
Initial Rough Animatic
Below is a very rough animatic we made quickly so that we could work out the timing of the various shots. This also helped us get rid of some shots later as we realised it didn’t work well with the sound.
