| Emily's background using my storyboard as a guide |
We decided to use the animatic as the skeleton for the actual animation by swapping the storyboard assets for the final ones and we tested this out on one part of the animatic to find that it worked well.
Animatic with updated background and Emily's storyboards
Natalie was unable to come in for the group crit this week and Matt made a point to iterate that we should be concerned about the lack of a definitive character design, so we later managed to catch up with her and give her a nudge in the direction of the character design we wanted. Meanwhile, the class suggested using real materials like clothes as textures for the backgrounds and Emily's test on this looked superb in my opinion.

Later over the weekend, I managed to imitate Emily's style well enough to chip in with the backgrounds, which are all coming along quite nicely.

| My attempt at making a background consistent with Emily's style |
What worked well:
- Storybook style of backgrounds
- Overlaying real textures on backgrounds
- Using storyboards as direct guide to backgrounds
- Consistency with Emily's style
What could be improved:
- Personal time taken to make backgrounds
