Camera Intro

To avoid swapping all my boards I tried to do a camera move. If anyone could, it'd be great to get some feedback on it. I guess if no one is able to I'll go with my gut feeling on whether I should keep the camera move or just flip the boards.

Thanks!

Cartoony Construction

As one of my more egotistical moves, I quickly scribbled together a rough construction page for both the giants and the aliens. Probably a mistake (there are better people for this), but it might help some folks.


The main point of this is to show the basic shape template one could modify to differentiate the characters. Helpful...?

Eli's Boards

Hi again,

I noticed Eli uploaded his boards onto the gateway site. I don't know if anyone else saw them there but they were kind of hard to view so I downloaded them all and zipped them in a folder and uploaded them so we could have them here on the blog as well.

Eli's Boards

It is just a bunch of jpegs in a folder sorry for not putting them into a .pdf. I opened them in storyboard pro and they didn't open in sequence and I didn't want to put them in the wrong order.

Let me know if anyone has problems opening the .zip I could also make a .rar if that is easier.

I'm sorry for not posting earlier but all morning I've frantically been looking for my flash drive with the updated files on it. Unfortunately I do not have it here but FORTUNATELY my boyfriend just called me back telling me it was in his car. So I'm reposting the altered intro I posted on Sunday (that we saw in class on Tuesday) because it's the most recent file I have.

Altered Intro

I have made revisions to it already (that were discussed in class) I just don't have it here to post :(. Sorry again Shaun. I will post later this week after cleaning up the shots and further editing.

So there's still much to do. I'm chugging along, getting these characters on model again. I keep forgetting I have a class Thursdays, so I'm putting my work up now. Don't mind Storyboard Pro's many punctuation glitches by the way haha.

As a neat trick, click on the 'label' at the bottom with my name, to see all of my posts on this blog.

I recently switched the players location in this shot after a vote. I've yet to edit the REST of this chunk, to follow suit.








THIS shot now has to be reworked, as the aliens are no longer over there. I need to find a way to get this done while keeping screen direction. Perhaps if Mikey turns his eyes to our right in the previous panel.
This part was going to get redrawn anyway, I guess.






This has to be reversed.

So does this pose, though it's getting a cleanup pass anyway. And the catcher is gone.



Still adding BG details to everything. I'm juggling that with the other technical notes.

New Sequence Animatic

Here's a rough animatic of the sequence piece I took on.

Altered Intro

Hey guys Here is an altered intro with some new shots. It's only 18 panels (up to where Mikey and Vince are talking about the book) but I'd appreciate any feed back on it.

Thanks :)

Character Sketches + Reference

So I thought I'd share some older images of the Junior Giants, but apparently there's not a whole lot more that's new from before. There ARE a few kids and some coaches in the lineup. Maybe I'll use those when putting some adults on model.

Also is some original ref of a little league field. It seems that real (east bay) little league dugouts are just a series of fences. This may or may not influence what our fantasy field will look like.
