TASK 1

Discuss and take on advice and feedback on your storyboards. Make necessary changes if needed to your storyboards.

From today’s feedback on my story board (week 8, task 1) I didn’t feel there were any necessary changes needed. My storyboard suitably explains what we wanted to achieve in our animatic.

TASK 2

Create an animatic for your part of the linked animation. Each group to have a combined animatic edit from each team member that links each group member’s animatic together.

This is the first draft of part one of our animatic. I created this in Adobe Photoshop and, to be honest, I’ve achieve exactly what I had planned to do based on discussions with my group. I had planned to create a 5-8 second sequence showing a starry night sky (with constellations of course) with a fade through the clouds into part 2, Alisa’s part. (the map shown at the end is Alisa’s map design.)

I learned from this that communication is key when it comes to creating a group animation. We were all able to keep each other up to date through the channels made on discord for our group. These four channels are “general” for when anyone needs to communicate with the whole group, and then there channels “2-3-4”, “4-5-6” and “6-1-2” and i know that each group member found these channels very useful for communication.
