After the backgrounds and sets were created and distributed by Pippa, I started off with setting every camera shot, putting down some estimated timings for moving cameras.
Finding correct shot positions was fairly easy, as I had an animatic to work from and the specific areas of shots were clear and easy to locate in the set.
Before adding any cameras, however, I referenced in the models (so any textures put on the model at a later date would be present in the film) and correctly sized them. Our producer Tom was able to calculate the scale numbers for each model from our character size chart, so it was an easy task to place them in the set correctly. Once they were in their starting positions, I went to placing the cameras.
I used a simple 'create camera from view' and made sure to order the cameras properly in the ouliner so I could switch to different shots for. I ended up with a total of eighteen cameras, two of which moved.
