Intentions: Animated Storyboard

While I was drawing up the final storyboard, Coupy was putting my drawings into FinalCut in order to animate the pictures and to replicate the camera movements that would be happening in the filmed version of events. The process included taking pictures of each individual shot that was drawn, uploading it onto the editing software and then adding a movement with a likeliness to that of what the camera would be doing in the final piece. On top of this, we added the music that we intended to use in the film opening in order to give a real feel of what the film was likely to look like by the end.

Intentions: Story Board

At first the story boarding process was taking a long time, but none the less was exciting because we could finally see our ideas coming together properly. After I had finished each page of the storyboard, Coupy would take a picture in order to put it into our animated version.

The more pictures and captions I got down, the quicker the process became and the easier it was to visualise what shots would look like in real life.

To be completely honest, the process of story boarding was becoming quite tedious by the end, and I was glad to finally finish after about 5 hours work.
