Thanx for the comments. There's been a bit of change in the storyboards from this version. Basically I took out a few shots that were kinda dragging the pacing a bit. I managed to cut the piece down to about 1min 20sec which is already quite long considering it's a 1-man job. Glad you like it. I just hope it won't end up turning the viewer off with sub-par animation in a sub-par story... Hey Isaac! Thanx for the comments. There’s been a bit of change in the storyboards from this version.

I have to say you are obviously pushing your envelop. Good move, boy. About camera direction (esp high & low angle, straight on), i believe it will convey the right emotions well. These still shots reminds me of Shyamalan's strong camera's shots in "Signs". They are stationary shots with good tempo yet contain appropriate visual components that drive to a emotional impact. I believe your shots will depends on the final shot's tempo and your sequence rhythm to make it come true. About character design, I always like stylized design. It got room for creativity. Not sure u are looking for an identity in your char design. Seems a bit generic. However, i like the look of it. Hi Pal, storyboard looking pro man~

Yeah it's gonna be my 3d short film project. I'm trying to keep the characters simple for obvious reasons and maybe try to give them a more stylized look. I'll upload some character designs soon. I appreciate your enthusiasm! Thanx shah. Yeah it’s gonna be my 3d short film project. I’m trying to keep the characters simple for obvious reasons and maybe try to give them a more stylized look.
