Final Context of Practice Animatic

Above is my animatic for Context of Practice. Overall I am happy with how the animatic turned out. I also hope that hypothetically if someone were to watch this animatic and were given the task of animating this short they would understand how to do it. What the animatic is missing is much dialogue and directions. Therefore I understand it is only a rough guideline for personal use, and not an exact blue print of how to create this animation.

The animatic was created with basic pen and paper, then scanned, resized and coloured with a simple grey colour on top to make the characters and what is occurring on screen bolder. I always like creating these sort of things with simple pen and paper because to me it allows me to be looser with my drawing therefore in the early stages of animation development I can suddenly decide if I dislike an idea, ditch it and draw something new in a very short space of time.

Below are each individual image for my animatic presented in a sequence.













I wasn't very confident about the ending. I wanted it to end with a point but I didn't want the point to be too on the nose. I wanted to visually represent the idea that in animation, male characters are many and often quite diverse whereas female characters are few and of a narrow margin, without actually saying what I just said.
