Study Task 7 and 8 - Animatics and Soundscapes; Keyframes, Extremes and In-Betweens

For the animatic, I finished off all the backgrounds to be used in the animation and fully animated the segment where Beryl is caught by Mark the bully. As a result, the actual animatic was very time consuming to make but I'm hoping it has saved me time in the future.

Beryl the Peril Animatic (The version submitted to DNAD was anonymised as per their requirements) 

The creative process for the animatic (and stop motion puppet)

What worked well:

• The choice of sound and voice acting
• The arcs and follow through in the slingshot
• The lip syncing
• The story can be followed fairly easily

What could be improved:

• Timing will have to be tweaked here and there for the actual animation
• Some movements will potentially be difficult and/or time consuming to animate for the final piece (like Princess' run cycle)
• Further development of keyframes, extremes and in-betweens for the final part
