Animatic 4-5 – Feedback 14/05/20

Tutor: Ron

The film is coming along very well and is starting to take shape.Key-framer tool would come in handy when animating some scenes in small space of time, for example, the train scene when the camera is tracking going into the doors. The beginning of the film put a blank white shot before animation starts, brings a good pace for the opening.

For the ending, make sure you put a fadeout to the credits and try and space it out as you can. Editing needs to tidy up the audio.

Tutor: Tess

Need to stop animating and focus on the creative narrative and filmmaking, she suggests I step back and have a look at my film and see if I can add two scenes for the café scene and train scene as they seem pointless and this might help come up with an ending of the film. The film was still problematic as I need to come up with two scenes to help solve this problem—there even an absent of theme.

Also, be more creative when it comes to sound, editing is not my strong skill as I only know the basics of premier pro, but I will do my best.

Due to the timing, I only focus on the feedback that I felt was necessary for the film. Advice received from the feedback session is optional to take.

  • In the film the animation of the girl walking through the street, the audio then title.
  • 10sec is perfect!
    walking around the corner of the street, then the title comes up, audio- ‘take it as a compliment.”
  • After the scene where the character is harassed on the street, add the audio.
    It’s a form of showing off.
  • (Add some symbol images, correspond.)
    – delete the front of the shop scene.
    – have the character leaving the coffee shop.
    – maybe have the door open then closed?
  • Medium shot of the two guys smoking outside the coffee shop.
  • Think of metaphors.

@0:54 The character is too close, pull out the shot have a child appear behind them, while they are catcalling at the women.

@0:40 Look at video “wedding Espresso” by Sandra Mosby.
Draw fewer lines for the backgrounds the audiences will know where they are in the film.

The Audio

  • Use thesarus.com to help you come up with the right words.
  • For example, offences, empowered, undermine.
  • Be more processes in front of a trans-script.

@1:21 “if I do speak out, they deny it.”

Its power play changes the word option.

The Film

  • Have the characters just stand their wat h for dead space.
  • Have the scene of the train doors opening – simple.
  • Make the male characters shifty.
  • Add it’s a form of showing off audio with two characters are showing off at the coffee shop.
  • Make the female character uncomfortable.
  • During the train, the scene adds an animation of someone playing busking.

    Take out the word Empowered and replace the phrase Intitled.
