Challenge. Accepted.

So I've been neglecting my life drawing for over a week now but with good reason. I was working on my end of year show (see I'm not just lazy). However, now that it is all done and out of the way (it went well by the way) I can start to focus on that personal summer project I mentioned a few weeks ago. I finally decided that it was time to sit down and really listen to the track my dad had given me for the whole project.

It was going really well and I was thinking of ideas and words that I associated with the track as I was listening to it and I managed to come up with an initial idea that my dad agreed he liked and thought that it was the idea he wanted me to run with. Great! Not as hard as I thought it was going to be. Until I sat down to begin story boarding and planning the length of the animation and such. Turns out the track is 5:42 minutes long. That's 8,208 frames at 24fps.

Nevertheless I have created a very basic storyboard for the first 30-40 (maybe 50) seconds of the animation which I am pretty chuffed about. I can start to think about environment and character designs now and really get this ball rolling.
