My rough character design.
This is my storyboard design.
In my storyboard, the character is a madman who love apples. I want to make a contrast in the end of the film between the realistic cruel world and the imaginary innocent world in the madman’s view. The realistic scene is people in the village who infected with measles were burning and the image of madman’s world is that people injected with measles look like the growing apple trees. I want to use two different art style as a contrast to make a strong visual effect.
This is the storyboard made by another member in our group. The length of this storyboard is suitable with the 20 seconds limitation. She focus on the fire scenes and tells the story in a simple and complete way, so we finally chose her storyboard as a start.
We gave advice and adjusted some angles and shots of the storyboard, then made the animatic.
Everyone was assigned 6 keyframes work. This is how I planned and arranged my 6 seconds work.
6 seconds draft
We made the soundtrack in the GarageBand. The overall tone of our music is eerie.
