monday

showed mike the animatic today to which he liked but had a few suggestions for further improvements before the second pitch next week:

the opening pan - the movement is nice but the background elements need further consideration. Mike suggested maybe seeing some other houses in the background, suggestions of families, different objects to give us clues to a modern suburbia.

perhaps cut to a CU of Hero as he walks out from behind flower pot - im not too keen on this idea as my boards bring audience from the outside and then cut close to him as he steps out, so as if linking with the events

Cut to CU of Macho when he spots Hero looking at him - will be sure to include this as currently the camera shot is too static and needs breaking up.

CU of Macho looking smitten with Lady Gnome and then zoom out to bring him back to the real world and realizing he has these pathetically small rocks - emphasizes the emotions more so again i really like this idea.

CU of Lady Gnome reaction - distracted by camera left (Heros performance)

These are just Mikes suggestions for improvement and may or may not be incorporated in due to time and whether we agree with them or not but worth noting down incase for future changes.

sat down and gut stuck on in to the schedule today. Still more work to be done on it but currently its got order in terms of its post and pre production. Areas of production are half ordered but still need a few more tweaks.

spent the evening working on gareths presentation and essay. Im writing about the lack of tax breaks for the british animation and how it could see the industry in this country starve...something i feel very passionate about.
