Animatic / Storyboard

I have recently been able to get myself a Wacom cintiq and with this I was able to create the an animatic and a storyboard together to show the client and myself where everything will be and what will be in each scene, the cintiq will also make this happen faster.

Once I finished the animatic, I had to send it to the client but the I could get the movie into an email as a attachment so to get round that I uploaded it to Google drive and then share the link to the animatic in the email, and with the success of it working that way I had to consider that this might have to be the way I screen the final piece to the client.

This is the email I sent him.



and he replied with


I found the reply very helpful, he gave me feedback on the animatic and told me things that I had to change or add. This felt like we was a team again. I am happy that he replied giving me more information because now I can make sure that he gets what he wants, he was fast with his reply again which makes it helpful for me as I do not want to wait around for him.

Radio silence

Its been awhile now since I have spoken to my client, this is because of a few things.

First thing is that I have just been getting on with all the sketching and work. I have worked with this client before so I am just making sure that I can create the animation to what he would want, i already know the character designs so it has come to the point of where I am just working, and I am happy that he left me to it because then I was able to just get on with it and I can update him once certain things are complete for example the animatic.

The second problem is that I have been having some housing issues with me and my family which has caused problems for me to be able to do my work and has made it hard for me but I am stilling continuing and getting the work done. I have told my client about this and he has been very nice about it and has been very patience with the work, and I am happy that my client is so understanding.
