This week Me and Rob have been working on the new 3D Animatic, spending considerable time focusing on camera angles, movement within the sets and cuts, therefore ensure that the camera and filmic language tells the Aztec Escape story. We tried to produce more dramatic shots and highten the action adventure atmosphere. We want the camera to emphasise the action and energy within the film, we could add more cuts to produce this effect. There are still a few camera shots and compositions that dont feel right and need a bit of work, but the timing of the animation and scenes is nearly precise. This should give the Composer, Foley Artist and Lead Animator the correct timing of the film. We have contacted a 3rd year Broadcasting student to review our animatic and give further advice of camera composition, timing and movement (tracking, depth of field, banking, dolly in and out, etc).
3D Animatic - Produced By Rob and Myself
At the moment the films stands as 3mins 30secs including title sequence and credits, we hope to refine this in the next couple of weeks as Dan begins the Jungle animation sequences. We will produce another animatic as these sequences are finalised. The animation Dan has given me so far has been of a high quality and I am pleased with his progress, he has given me his personal animation schedule so that I know when to expect the work to review it and sign it off ready for rendering.
Meanwhile... Jenny is UVing and Texturing, I am Modelling the new Temple Interior Sets, Rob is UVing the Main Chamber, Giles is UVing and rigging for other groups, Ben is modelling the mouse for the lounge.
