New story Fist take story boards and music

This is my new story based on symbolism and pressers felt by same sex couples.

(original consepts are good but to anime like and the blond boy is to young looking)

(tryed to make blond boy older but still to anime) 

(simplifyed style to get ride or anime feel also helps in style and characters more heavenly influenced by body language) 

(the Enemys)

I did reserch in to common problums same sex couples face being together. and the most common where, Religious Ishuss, here represented by a snake, linked to the bible and what is considered a sin. 

Society opinion, quick to laugh and mock but do not see the real pitcher, because of this I drew them as hyena shaped wolfs, sitting up right and bold, with no eyes to see but mouths to laugh.

Family Ishuss, this is based on the hunched over wolf the larges and most intimidating, it has large eye to judge. 

Legal Ishuss, being seen as an american eagle at first, Protscting , regal and strong but slowly turns in to a volcher when you learn the legal system is not always on the side of same sex couples. 

I desided to take out the egale in the end, because the main character also has a link with birds but in a more angilc and free meaning but this confused the audience. I also did not wont to give the impretion that this is somthing only for america or based there. 

This was a practice with digital painting to see how I can paint a calky/water color looking drawing for animation. as this is the style I want for the to partners and the enemys to contrast with harsh black pen. as a first attemt this worked well but took a bit longer than planed. 2h for one frame? unrealistic.

Tried ageing later after I knew the steps to digitally paint but make it look hand drawn this only look me a min or so. This is the final character designs of my 2 main characters.

Fist take animistic.

Second take better with music more in timeing.

Feed back

My feed back for my last presentation befor My Final and most impotent one was... alright I gess.

I Fallowed all the Advice given from the last pitch and planed what I would say made sure to memorise the names of animators and important names as memory is somthing I am week on. and completly changed my story idea.

However! I was extramly nervuse, shaky and offten found my self not saying anything when I had so much to say. My nerves got the better of me and I dont think this has happend befor...

none the less, the lecheres didnt seem to menten it in my feed back but I knew I was jumpy so I may need to practice keeping calm.

The feedback that was given how ever was; they liked the new direction and story and could see a clearer path for my thinking and ideas. However I should be carefull not to make my animation to symbolic so no one knows whats going on in the hole animation.

I also shouldn't mention things I have done previous to this, not because it isnt impotent but because in my final presentation this distracts from the main point I need to bring across in my final presentation.

They did like my new story and its powerful message. however they where unsure about the ending and was thinking that it should be something else like death... I was not fond of this as the last secen was ment to be a resolution and not a tragedy.

The link

The reason for my upload of Paper man is because I have found a Link in my research something that has always been there and concepts my research at the very beginning to just now.

Originally I wanted to focused my research on 2d-3d animation and how hybrid animation can be used effectively to enhance the animation.  How ever this was a Fresh field of research for me and information to find on this was hard. But my main concept was to try and make 3D animation look as close to original 2D concepts as possible.

Paperman successively achieved what I was thinking of and hoping for. and in the videos it is also menchend keeping an image free and close to the original style of concept art and Medium.


and with my research on limited animation for television I was also arguing why children shows and movies aren't more influenced by there original concept art. The artwork of Cinderella was something that amazed me but there final animation looked nothing like the art they had made and this was very frustration that they would toss such nice besides and concepts. but it was understandable as it is hard to keep this kind of art style in proportion and with strong continuity with so many people working on it it had to be set to strict rules.

But ageing I was talking about the relativity of concept art to animation and why it doesn't exist. but the truth is it dose exist but in animation shorts. of all my previous research is still relevant but less focused on now what is my topic. being how dose medium and line effect the feel and movement of the animation. 

I have been looking more in to short animation that use inserting styles and medium. here are a few i have found.: 

 (I have notes on this back home I must add later)
