Class 5 Week 4 – Assignment & Critique – Part 2

I had a number of dialogue options for my multi-character shot, but I decided to go with the “werewolf” clip from Young Frankenstein. I think it’s really funny and whilst quite challenging (it has three characters, after all), it should hopefully allow me to come up with some cool acting choices and do some nice facial animation. Let’s start with the storyboard and it’s animated brother:

In my critique, Mario had a few misgivings about the shot; mainly that it’s quite ambitious, there are three characters and it’s reasonably complex in terms of cuts and camera angles. Overall though, he was happy with the work I’ve produced this week, he especially like the characters/costumes I’d come up with:

A very busy week, but it was definitely worth it! Time to move onto blocking and video reference!
