504 Documentary #9 - Concept Art, Storyboard, and Animatic

 While we waited for Pippa to finish the storyboards, Kahenya and I made up some concept art to look at perspective. Kahenya kept to greyscale whereas I added colour with some lighting.



Not long after, Pippa uploaded the storyboard sheets to our shared Drive folder, which I looked over. There were multiple parts of the board that needed correction for accuracy, like movement, posture, limb rotation, joints, and shape, so I explained on our groupchat I would make the animatic to revise inaccuracies, so the shots and cinematography would remain the same.










Because I had to revise alterations in Photoshop, I could only effectively edit with the narration rather than the entire SFX board, which was irritating, but it was better to get a base line out for narration and timing done. Although I had to ask for our narrator to re-record the final line (as the Austroraptors weren't referred to by name, which I felt was necessary), the timing ran to 92 seconds. I know for the 2nd version once I have the new line, I may have to re-edit the previous scenes to try and keep it to 90 seconds as best as I can, but so far I'm very happy with the timing.
