SHOT 93 [ROUGH] Version02 - Wai-Han Lau

I added more animation on the couple, I took Charlotte's suggestion to make them step back (almost in shock). At first, I did it in sync with the both of them stepping back (like how they were in the shot 92) but then I felt it looked a bit strange so I've added a bit of variety with Fred stepping back but Helen reaching out to help when Edith wobbles a bit - Helen's arms reaching out also leads into the next shot nicely.

SCENE 04 - SHOT 04 [LINED] - Wai-Han Lau

The lined version of this shot, my first lined shot so I had a few difficulties drawing neat again...

SHOT 94 [ROUGH] - Wai-Han Lau

46  frames

There's a lot of hand movement going on, it quite difficult to observe in edith's (blue) left hand but she has the photo between her thumb and other fingers and kind of drops it when she turns her hand.

SHOT 96 [ROUGH] - Wai-Han Lau

This is a very rough version of Shot 96, it's been a while since I've done a walk cycle... I forgot that they're so simple and yet so difficult at the same time. I started animating Fred walking on the spot, then Helen - both of them walk in sync at 17 frames a step - and then Edith, who walks at 21 frames per step.

on the spot

moving them [test]

After I did that, I moved them - just to test if it works. I concluded from the quick test that it's best I inbetween the cycle before I move them along and that I may have to either quicken the walking pace, move the characters or add time for the couple to walk off camera and for Edith to walk to her destination (pass the photo booth).

SHOT 93 [ROUGH] - Wai-Han Lau

I struggled with this shot at first, it's because I had her pivoting on the spot as she got up initially. It's only when someone pointed out that she should get up and then pivot, which made this shot a lot easier. Made me realise that actions can just be a simple, step-by-step process which doesn't over-complicate things!

SHOT 93

I wasn't sure what to make the couple do, at the moment they're just blinking (I imagine in shock at seeing this old woman). I did play with the idea that Helen could reach her arms out a little when Edith looks like she's about to fall, but I'm still unsure of that.

SCENE 04 - SHOT 02 [ROUGH] - Wai-Han Lau

The green box is the substitution for the cam, same with the handbag. Edith is supposed to appear tired in this shot, and also slightly overwhelmed by the scale of the shopping mall - we may add a POV shot of the mall inbetween, just as she starts looking scared so we can see the scale of the mall.

SCENE 04 - SHOT 04 [ROUGH] - Wai-Han Lau

Don't have the background for this scene so I've scriggled green stuff in place of the bush, this shot is one of the new shots that were altered for scene 04 - so it has a different name (with

A rough background for shots 93+96 - will polish it up after I've done my animation.

BG 48/ SHOT 80 [altered] - Wai-Han Lau

Realised that it would be strange to have the photo-booth curtain closed (which implies that someone is already in there) and have the couple walk toward a closed curtain. The sound of the curtain closing could be played during the next shot (shot 81), so we don't have to animate that

SHOT 81 [ROUGH] - Wai-Han Lau

Originally 44 frames (as set out in the production schedule), added 6 extra frames so she holds her smirk at the end. In the animatic, her face is turned to the side - I feel like there's no need because of the background perspective behind her:

which also means she's already facing couple, it's just the camera that she looks at at the end.
