AAAAAAnimatic!

As requested, here is my updated animatic with discussed shots of the extended lint-attack-part. I'm a little bored with some of my camera angles. I thought I liked the campy side scroll look... but now I yawn at it in mild disgust. Perhaps I will re-board some shots before I begin puppet and BG construction.

CAITLIN IT SAYS THE VIDEO IS PRIVATE!

I like it! - all the zooms in and out add to the horror.
What do you think about more violent lint shots fast cuts maybe) before it fades to black at the end, so we can see it bringing her down! (go lint!)

Carder said...

I agree with Daniela. Some quick cutting could really amp this thing up after all the long shots of her doing laundry. Are you going to add that dramatic shot of her lying on the floor that you showed us in class?

You guys are absolutely right. I need a bunch of quick cuts and I need to figure out exactly how the lint invades the lady. I promise my next post will be that scene re-boarded.

I think you can get a good sense of the pace of the film from the animatic - the slow holds give a lingering creepy sensation. Though I agree with Carder and Daniela that a sudden change of pace as the lint attacks would make it more intense.

I think you may have a jump cut in the beginning (the shot from behind the woman when she is standing in front of the washing machine).

Also, is the washing machine a front or top loader? Maybe I'm just not reading the drawings right but it seemed to switch part way through.
