Recap: Due Monday!

As a note, ALL WORK IS DUE ON MONDAY FOR ALL STUDENTS. NO EXCEPTIONS, NO CHANCES TO TURN THINGS IN LATE.

1. Have your film storyboarded with your animatic!  (Anyone who turns in their animatic on monday, along with your personal work will receive extra credit! Standard due date for ANIMATIC ONLY is Wednesday.
• The best thing you can do is showcase a timed animatic with your story, so we can get a feeling of the story's flow.  You can show this in addition to walking through your storyboards and characters step by step.
2. Have all production materials complete with color! These include:
• Character Designs (with turnarounds)
• Environment Designs
• Additional art you have created to better flesh out the story.
3. Have your pitch 100% ready! We will start at 4:20, no exceptions.
• Properly package your materials in a folder on a flash drive, or on the server so you can pitch clearly and best showcase your story for green-lighting.
• ADVICE:  Practice your pitch! Remember I am allocating 10 minutes for each pitch.  You probably want to complete your pitch in 7 minutes, so you have 3 minutes of flexible time. (You always take longer than you realize in the actual pitch)
4. CREATE THESE MATERIALS
• DUE MONDAY:
• Print 14 copies of your script.
• Print 2 copies of your storyboards with the format, (3-Panel Horizontal)
• Export storyboards to PDF in the following formats.
• 3 Panel Horizontal
• Overview
• Full-Page
• DUE WEDNESDAY:
• Create a design document for drawing your characters! I.E. a "how to draw guide."  This must be turned in by everyone on wednesday, and those who have approved stories will give it to their teammates for review.

You all have the potential to be great artists and storytellers. Everyone has a skill to lend to the animation process. GIVE IT YOUR ALL THIS WEEKEND!  This is your first foray into a professional career setting for animated short production!  I look forward to seeing what we bring to class.  Have a great weekend! =D
