Interim Crit

THE CRIT.

Today I presented my project so far, including my idea generation, storyboards, reference and the final idea to get feedback from my peers.

The feedback included suggestions about camera angles... David suggested that I use a shot of just the character's feet walking across the floor for a more dramatic effect. Mat suggested a silhouette of the character walking in against the light from the door, which was similar to my idea, but with a the camera angle being head on instead of slightly diagonal.

I'm considering dressing my Moom in a coat, but Mat suggested this might be a lot of work and so I will be doing this if I have time after designing all the backgrounds.

I mentioned the idea of background pub noises and people talking in the tavern, Anna suggested I include people sat around tables in the tavern to give it more of an atmosphere.. however the room would be really dark so I might not need these- will see how it goes when I've put it all together- If I do include people they would just be extra Moom characters and have little- no movement.

Look up 'Puppeteer' the PS3 game. apparently would be useful for this scene.

TO DO:
Work out what voice I am going to do and record it.
Create the tavern and backgrounds etc.
Lighting tests- work out how to make a dim candle light...flickering?
Re-shoot the reference video with smoother, better movements now that I know what I'm doing.
Make the animatic and refine the storyboard.
