Team Squiggle and our animatic

I would like to introduce you to Team Squiggle, the group I am in for this project. It consists of Natalie, E-Ling and myself (Vix).

Together we're going to be creating an animatic. What's it going to be about, I hear you ask? I shall tell you.

Thinking over what our animatic should be about we came up with the "idea" of us as characters thinking of what to do for the animatic. Perhaps not the most creative idea that ever was. This seems to have developed into our characters now just drawing in a class before a lecturer arrives with strange goings on occuring.

Given that it's to be about five minutes long, we're each going to create a minute worth of animatic using our own story, character and artistic style. Each segment will then be cut into more segments so that the stories flick between all three of our ideas and we don't end up with a chunked animatic. In our own stories, aswell, each other's stories will slightly overlap. We will create the start and ending together.

The main idea is that each of us in character form go into a class before the lecturer arrives. We then sit down at our desks and begin to draw. But what we draw comes to life, causing chaos in the class. Upon arrival, the lecturer is not very happy about all the mess and commotion.

Stories are still being finalised at this point individually, and then they will be put together to create the final script.
