Assembling storyboard and animatic for the new story

This sunday Andreas and I scanned in the new storyboard and started assembling it digitally as well as beginning work on the new animatic. We had to leave the building before five though and didn’t finish. Therefore the whole group spent today completing first drafts of both:
As 13 pages of storyboard would be a tiny bit extreme to fit inside a blog post, I made a PDF:

The storyboard is a bit rushed at this time and we haven’t added much text. Might have missed some arrows as well and there are no transitions yet. Will be fixed in due course. The animatic is finished in the sense that we’ve timed all the shots, but we’re lacking a fair bit of sounds, mainly because there are many we haven’t found yet. I guess we’ll have to consider making our own sound effects.
For some reason we really ran into trouble when looking for music. We listened to a lot of tracks without finding anything we really liked. Then tried watching what music similar films used, like “In the Rough” for instance, and found that they didn’t use music that much, but had a lot of sound effects in stead. I honestly don’t know what we’ll end up with, but as of now the animatic needs more music.
