- In this shot, we planned for the shot to clearly pan across each picture - so unlike a normal photo wall where they are different shapes and heights on the wall - we thought it would save viewing time to keep them in a straight line, and similar sizes to keep the centre frame similar.
- The original animatic time was 20 seconds, but after adding tweens and leaving some space on the end to think about fading to black if we didn't want a clean cut - it ended up as 25 seconds. Even though this could be better thought out to decrease our screen time on an already long film - I think the speed looks more natural in 25 seconds and doesn't look too rushed.
- EBI - we didn't have a clear vision for the party photo cut. The only real idea was a zoom or a pan. I knew we couldn't do the pan, because the camera movement was already a pan and it would confuse the viewer. And the zooming in to one particular colour would take too long and add on to our already over timed shot.
My Ideas
- Lilith flickers in like demonic spirits in movies: Good = suits the demon theme. Bad= Other characters would have to animate in to position and the polaroids are pre drawn in Autodesk sketchbook.
- Ghostly animated cloud covers the image?: Good= Might add some colour, separate the characters and wallpaper and separate one image from the other. Bad= Cloud might look out of place in the style - and if I make it ghostly smoke, then holes/ it being see through will ruin the cover up transition purpose.
- Spooky light flicker: Good = Having a light source might make the rest of the wall look less bare and show where these shadows are coming from. Bad = This wall is used a lot and if it's flickering in this scene, should it be in the others?
WWW -
- I like the transition idea as long as my group do.
- The timing looks smooth in my own opinion.
- The polaroids all have a consistent style.
EBI -
- I struggled with the frame perspective as they passed and in places it looks a little off if you look too closely.
- Retiming this the first time when I messed up and made the entire thing 1 second per photo and not 4 seconds per photo. This took a long time as this was a pan and not lots of frames. Also one panel on the background kept messing up.
- Discuss with team earlier about the full plan of the shot before starting. i asked mid animating whether the title was supposed to be in this shot, as we haven't designed it or put it in any storyboard - as it wasn't in the script. (It will go after this shot when it fades to black)
