Inspiration and Voices

I recorded my actors yesterday, very exciting. So expect a refreshed animatic some time before next Wednesday.

And here are some inspiring pictures from a book, 'Paris, in the Age of Impressionism; Masterworks from the Musee D'Orsay.'

Yeah, just a quick post today, nothing terribly exciting. (Well, recording was exciting, but I'm not posting the voices here yet.)

Backgrounds

Okay, this isn't a final background, just me working on the inside of Viola's appartment. I was going for art noveau, maaaybe over did it. I think that the balcony railing is a bit too much, makes it look like an Elvish treehouse from Lord of the Rings. Otherwise, I quite like it. Andi said a while ago to have different colours for the characters when they're inside the appartment, I agree, so Viola's got some different colours here.

So here's the background by itself, followed by the background with Viola in there as well and the last one also has wallpaper.





Also, here are a few pictures that I've been using for reference, I found them on good old Google. Yay.

Animatic

Animatic! Hell yeah! Dear god these things take so much longer than you think. And it looks so damn basic. O_O So yes, here's the animatic, please watch it and tell me what you think, what is good, what is confusing, etc. Oh yes, and the voices aren't recorded yet, so enjoy the subtitles. :)

Sorry about the low quality, I was trying to make it small enough to upload.

That live action bit comes from here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzPR7DYyGtY I just threw it in for timing and it's what I'm drawing my inspiration from, but I want to play with it and stuff. Nice dancing though, I like how she looks like she's trying to get away, but he's all, 'No, I don't think so.'

Also, music-wise, not sure if myabe I should have a differenet song playing while Viola is doing her triumphant leapy bit?

Also, here are some background ideas and sketches. Wooooooo~
