Øya Storyboard by on Scribd Slik ser storyboardet vårt ut. Dette skulle, som manuset, også inn den 21. september. Vi har ikke fått noen tilbakemelding fra veileder enda, så det er jo spennende... Det er rimelig tydelig at vi er to stykker som har tegnet det, men for meg er ikke det et problem. Vi hadde heller ikke riktig startet på karakterdesign enda. Stilen er enkel, da det viktigste for oss var at handlingen skulle være tydelig. Det ble et par travle dager, i og med at animasjonsfestivalen tok en god del av de to ukene vi hadde satt av til script og storyboard, men vi fikk det sammen til slutt. I praksis hadde vi tre dager på oss. Man får gjort mye når man sover lite.. Jeg skulle gjerne ha hatt mer tid til pre-production. Jeg ser disse elementene som svært viktige for hvordan den endelige filmen vil bli, og vi har ikke riktig tid til å tenke igjennom alt. Det må bare gjøres. Det skal visst bli en del forandringer i hvordan tredjeåret her blir lagt opp, men det skjer ikke fø

SvarSlettHey Sandra,
So - I think you're really onto something here - as I said before I think it's got great 'animation' potential and I love the 'silliness' of the premise. That said, you need to look at your ACT 1 set-up from the audience's point of view: how do we know your astronaut character is a frustrated hair-stylist? You know it because it's your idea - but that information isn't on the screen yet. You're going to have to take more time to create the context for what happens next - so how might we be shown that the astronaut wanted to be a hairdresser but wasn't allowed to be (assuming something or someone stopped him). Might you need a flashback, show our astronaut as a little boy cutting the hair of a dog or a cat - or a Barbie doll! - only for his Famous Astronaut Father to come in and say 'No!' disapprovingly etc? You're going to have to show us this somehow because if you don't, none of what comes next is going to make any sense to the rest of us.
Just in terms of your astronaut's first encounter with the long-haired alien, I wonder if it might be better if he's bumped into by the alien, but that the alien doesn't stop to befriend him because that would suggest that the aliens can perceive their environment even with their long hair; might it be more logical that the 'blind aliens' nearly trample him (because they're moving in a big queue) and he ends up joining the queue - sort of swept along with them on their pilgrimage through the village etc. The queue could snake towards 'The Restaurant' and the astronaut is thinking 'Oh, this is nice' - when suddenly we see the front of the queue dropping off the edge of a cliff into the mouth of the 'volcano' - and the astronaut is still amongst them, now teetering on the edge of the cliff himself - at which point he reaches for his scissors and snips the fringe of the nearest alien... who also now sees what's happening... I can see this being a bit more dramatic this way?
In general terms, I think this could be great fun - but establishing your astronaut's secret wish for the audience is key to the success of this film - as is embracing the design challenges of this crazy hairy world of yours! And just for some further inspiration...
