6DM022, 6DM012: week 15(15th-22th February 2016)

From this week's production meeting, the main things I showed to the rest of the group given by the previous post was the scenes I started to animate aswell as informing about the changes I am making to the story but would need to be draw out.
The main goals they set for me was to start feeding the scenes I start into the animatic so in the end it would the animation as I progress forward.
The other goal was to make sure I don't give the horror element away that people would recognize straight away as a werewolf story particularly at the start with the moon in view as it should be fully clouded over in the night sky. But make it more apparent as the story progresses and keep it for the crucial moments.

As the week progresses I started and finished a updated storyboard based on the notes shown the previous post.









































I also did some updated character sheets with a breakdown sections to get the fall sense of how to get the characters to move when I am animating especially with the help of what they would look in the final look, their facial expressions, poses and how to draw them before adding textures and detail.


 Below shows an updated digital schedule for the entire semester and a board schedule for post-production which will frequently change as the weeks progress

For the board schedule I started to note down any points that I would need to progress the module aswell as knowledge of what scenes I have started and need continuing aswell as noting other tasks and would be important to the progression of this short film.

Below displays photos of my current workspace as to where I will reference the film from to make sure I keep on track to the schedule and storyboard I have changed provided from given feedback. But as the schedule this will frequently change. These photos also show that I consider taking notes for each sequence which can be crucial to knowing what exactly I need to do as I am animating each one.
