Creating a sequence animatic
A sequence animatic is a rough previsualization of an animation sequence, typically created using a series of storyboard images edited together with timing and basic movement and sometimes accompanied by voiceover, sound effects, or music. The purpose of an animatic is to visualize the narrative and pacing, plan out camera angles and movements, and make necessary adjustments before moving on to the final animation stage.
When creating a sequence animatic, some questions to ask yourself might include the following:
- Does the animatic effectively communicate the story and emotions of the scene?
- Are the pacing and timing of the sequence appropriate and engaging?
- Do camera angles and movements enhance the narrative and visual impact of the scene?
- Are there any elements of the scene that could be improved or changed for better clarity or storytelling?
- Does the animatic highlight key moments, expressions, or actions that are essential...
