I've been pretty busy working on this short film so I haven't updated... but now I'm back on the wagon or whatever. Here's another set of boards. There's some compositing to be done on them so they may not make much sense like this.

God damn, more
Got some more storyboards done. I'm up to 80 boards and at the part when dude is running out of the house after getting bashed by the broom.
2 posts in 1 day! 3 in a weekend! Maybe I"ll chill out on posting every time I get any of the work done. Maybe not.

Momentum. Sweet precious milky momentum.
I woke up early today on this beautiful Saturday morning, went to a cafe and proceeded to draw for almost 3 hours. I'm loosening up with my drawing, getting much better quality, and remaining very inspired by this project. I'm going to stop posting all these storyboards though because I don't want to show them all right away. I might revisit some of them as well.
Now I'm off to eat lunch and then set up my new drum set. Good day.

Got some more storyboards done.
Good for me. They're pretty time consuming. Right now I'm at about 8 storyboards every hour. I've spent about 4 hours and I've 32 boards, which end right now at the part when the big sweeps come in. At this rate I'm looking at about 40-50 hours to complete all the storyboards. I guess that's not taking into account that I'll probably start half-assing it when I get tired of drawing them. Right now it feels pretty good. I have to go help my brother move, but here's a sample of the storyboards:

Still working... slowly
I haven't given up yet, even though it may look that way because it has been almost 2 months since my last post. I was busy with christmas/new years/long vacation so I haven't touched this much. I'm still working on it, just very slowly.
Currently I've hit a wall with the character design portion of the project. It's not really my thing so instead of putting so much pressure on getting it right I'm just going to push ahead in other directions. I started work on a 2D animatic today and got about 20 storyboards done for the first scene. This isn't much, and it's not worth showing yet, but I'm making some progress and I want to acknowledge that and keep tracking it. I'm hoping that while working on the storyboards I'll get a better sense of the characters because I'll be required to keep sketching them over and over. That hasn't happened yet, and the drawings are very crude, but at least they'll get the point across and help me visualize every detail of the short before starting on the 3D.
So... good job, self. You did some work.
