Staging/Modeling
Here are some of the props we will be using in the final part of the film, we wanted to make it look like the individual we are following is a bright character, hes interested in astronomy, philosophy, conspiracy theories, he's actually a smart guy but drugs and other forms of depression have led him astray..

3D Animatic
This is the the 3D animatic for the ending of our film, the acting is limited but roughly it will give a feel for timing and i left some time at the end for credits and fades, also theres no fades but i left time in the animatic to add them in as i'm not so great at after effects.

Backgrounds
Here are is a shot of one of the backgrounds not completed yet but this is just to give you a feel....
Few pose shots of a Norman rig during staging
I am showing these images here to explain what happened to the settings of Maya when i tried to render in MentalRay some error occurs and shuts my Maya down so i had to render these images in MayaSoftware and the reason im telling you this is because my Animatic will be the same, although with my Animatic for the 3D ending, is different still. The images are smaller even though i set the settings to 'HD 720' So i'm stumped. I suppose for the Animatic it doesn't matter. As long as the timing is their and a rough set of the action. Also the Norman is downloaded off the internet.

Props!
I wanted to show what this man is like through his props so even though he is drug fuelled and alcohol fuelled, i wanted to show that he hasn't' given up on all hopes and dreams of perhaps travelling the world hence the map and the globe and i wanted to show that he is quite academic or that he is interested in reading therefore books.

Storyboard - Animatic
Okay... So after a weeks worth of changing the characters to a more cartoon based style, we have to go back and change the characters to more like we had them before, more realistic so that the film will have more of an art based look. So all in all new characters have been scrapped and we are back to the old characters but we will be putting in extra detail on each of the characters but for the storyboard animatic we are going to demonstrate the story with the previous characters. Here are some of the panes i have drawn up for the animatic/storyboard, Becca will be finishing off the rest as some of the scenes still need doing on Su's half.

The sound designer!
We have got to work with the sound designer that produced this short film from a 3RD year last year and we loved this short film and all the sounds in it, therefore picking Danielle as our sound designer.

Characters
Here is one set of characters we did by taking Neil's advise and making the characters more appealing through the language of shapes that we discussed in a lecture. We wanted the characters to have more appeal to them so that when the audience views the characters they feel more emotionally engaged into the characters story. Although we had feedback from Hillary and she believes that we need to meet somewhere in between the Woodcut style we had previously worked with that you can see on the bottom and the cartoon style of characters, Hillary would ,like us to work on the characters with a more artistic form.
