This is our first This Romantic World: The Animatic Series Update Post!
I gotta say, this is exciting.
These are all the completed shots so far! This month I'm doing Scene 1, which has 10 shots, so we're more than halfway there! Next update, this will all be put together.
As this is the first scene, I had to make a few calls on how I wanted this project to look. I can't have the animation be all fluid or even coloured just yet until we reach the patreon goal, so looking for a way to keep the animatics visually appealing was my main concern. Since I have to keep the scope of the project feasible, and realistically doable by One Person.
I actually debated whether or not to have lip-flaps or stay true to the more traditional storyboarding style - and also I thought I'd make the shading blue to keep it colourful, instead of just greyscale.
Those are gonna be my creative directions while I work on this project! I hope it pays off once it all comes together.
Let me know if you like how this is looking so far!! Think this will work? Is the black and white with lip flaps an acceptable level of compromise, you think? Let me know and
Enjoy!
