Progress Update

A progress update!
After looking at the previous animatic, I felt that it dragged abit and so much more could happen. Some of the secenes could be cut down or out in order to up the pace abit; felt it lagged abit. So! I've added in extra scenes and changed the ending abit, for instance, giving Axl and the Kid more screen time at the end.

At the moment, I'm touching up the new scenes in the animatic, they are still in rough storyboard format, so going to redraw them so it fits in to the rest of the film.
I have both characters and the scene modelled. Will spend some time putting the finishing touches on them after I have finished working on the animatic, which should be completed soon. Then all that will be left (hopefully) will be blocking out all the scenes.

Currently thinking of having a commentator to be constantly commentating on the football match, however having the commentary will also reflect what is happening in the film, so for instance, things like "He's running circles around him!", "He slips past his marker!", "He just can't handle him today" etc. Will find some audio to cut up and place into the animatic to see how it well it will work. I still don't know about having music playing in the background, something in the style of Tom and Jerry soundtracks, light hearted music that depicts the tempo of the film. May be an idea to combine the two; have music playing when there isn't commentary and have the music quieten down when the commentator is speaking, so that it isn't monotonous. Will have to see how this pans out!

New post due soon!
