wed-mers-day

came in bout 10:30 and booked the sound hard drive out for the day so we can get some decent foleys what have you for the animatic. Matt searched the drive for the first part of the morning so i had it for the evening, as i got to have it back to stores for 9am....early enough?

Scanned my drawings i completed last week for the colour script which will be completed by Matt.

Came home for the afternoon and scoured through the entire harddrive to find any and all sounds that could be relevant to our project. Sound effects are gonna be key rather than a soundtrack as we haven't seem to found quite what were looking for there. At this stage I think we can suggest scratch sounds and introduce the fun of the project but they will most likely need to be re-recorded professionally. Found a load of sounds that might be useful for me and Matt so will see how they fit in when finishing up on the editing of the animatic.

Spent the evening working on the animatic. Although our brief states about providing a colour animatic, Im taking the creative decision to not persue this and instead focus our animatic on what its true purpose its to be: to plot out camera angles, timing and suggested poses for our characters. Since the team will be providing a colour script and plenty of colour concepts I feel it would be unnecessary to crowd the naimatic with colour when its purpose is refernce at this stage.

Whilst having some breaks from the old animatic i completed an environment concept that demonstrates how i'd like the lighting to look for the the lady gnome scenes where she's sat on top of the mushroom. I think this could work quite nicely as a poster for part of our marketing materials as the spotlight shining down is quite dramatic.
