Here are some screenshots of recently production
In the beginning I was very frightened about doing an 'intdoor' scene. I have had bad experiences with working on the insides of buildings and rooms. So to avoid this i planned to have them talking and discussing Cliff's departure out the front of the house.
But once I'd seen some inspirations pictures I decided, with the time that i have, why not try my best?
This image from google images inspired my scene set out straight away. Although it was very ambitious i went ahead anyway.
So this was my first plan
This drawing autmatically looks too modern, and why does he have a double bed?
So then i drew myself a victorian bed. I am very proud of the look and shape i ended up taking from it.
This image was not traced so i was quite happy with my final result.
Once i had that i drew up a bedroom around him.
The keywords were
Farm House
Childs bedroom
and Victorian.
Once tracing over all my red lines and going into extreme detail with lines and colour this was the final piece.
Then i put Cliff and Tam into the room to have their own emotional goodbye moment.
I really like the window, and how even though the background is quite different with all the objects the outside is the same as the viewer should be familiar with, bright and blue.
Today i was working on making the big flying ship work (Designed by Lana Cohen) and finding some great mechanical sounds for it's engines and wings.
I also reworked the animatic for the big boat scene which took a lot of mental effort but will hopefully work out for the best.
We worked it out in a way that the 'flying' boat would be quite a surprise for the audience.
First the characters will begin of the docks (Jetty) meeting the captain. Para asks the captain how then seas have been treating him, he replies good, where are you heading?
The witch has been sighted downstream. Fade away
Then we see a close up of Cliff smiling with his hair blowing. Next up we zoom out and reveal to the audience the flying boat!
