Reflections from Crit

Good Comments
  • Good use of testing characters out in different media
  • Good amount of work 
  • Lack of understanding of storyboards - need to make them more clear, and sequential. 
Characters of note...and feedback
  • Egg - doesn't fit with eggshell as a story, maybe hugging a bit of toast, being fried? 
  • Bear - consider the textures together, is it too much?
  • cactus - need to get back the look of the pricks being the beard, hair ect. (lost this in paper?)
  • synchronised swimming (nicer when you can not see the body, but just the legs)
General Reflections
  • I have made lots of different little roughs of ideas and thoughts...but I need to spend more time on developing the character themselves - give them a more definite personality.
  • Need to do some more storyboarding, what could all of these different characters be doing?
  • I have been a little too ambitious with some of my storyboards. Be subtle and more simple in the movements your character could be doing - deconstruct and construct, facial expression ect.
  • Create these characters and storyboards with intent. What do you want to say? What story do you want to tell? Is just being cute enough? BUT at the same time I am tired of making 'serious' work, I want to be playful and silly for once, and make an audience laugh!
