Animatics

Rough Animatic

This is the first draft of my animatic. There are sounds and dialogue that need to be added in places, and i still need to adjust the music properly.

Feedback:

After showing this to peers and teacher, i received various comments. I shall use these to improve my animatic and keep these in mind when editing my final peice.

Good:

Editing

Pace

Clear drawings

Bad:

Music could be more suspense feeling

Some shots were too long for a trailer

The music was hard to find for this as i didn't really know what tone i wanted to create. Modern day trailers include a suspense building soundtrack to intice the audience, however the film noir trailers that i analysed such as Gilda and Double Indemnity, has a very slow soundtrack, not always matching the action on screen although they did have a very deep male voice over explaining the story either from a male characters POV (Double Indemnity) or just a narration (Gilda). I think it would be an idea to use a voice over as this way i can use classical music to give it the film noir feel.

Finished Animatic.

I feel this builds a mood as well as narrates a storyline which is what the previous animatic lacked.

I haven't done anything with the editing as i was told it was well paced and it was just the music that needed adjusting. The dialogue still needs to be added but i will do that when i film it.
