responsive: making the animatic

Once we had the initial idea ollie went to lay it out on storyboards. We had planned the animation to be one continuous shot on a large background, however every main shot needed to be planned. I then took the story board and worked it into the animatic. The main focus of the animatic was the transition times in the animation. Since there where no actual cuts in the animation I had to try and make it as obvious as possible how it was transitioning. Another important part of the animatic was the timing of the animation with the voice over. We wanted a narrated voice over to tie our animation with the MSC cause. Ollie and I worked up a script from the treatment and storyboard for me to work from. I then recorded my own version of the narration to use in the interim in the animatic. I think if I was going to do a similar project again I would have the storyboards done of a mock up of the long background so it could show the proper transitions.
