We finished the first 3D animatic version of a whole scene for the film.  We used a scene that was spaceships but there were a few shots with characters.  The spaceship models were low polygon designs by Rob Brown.  We created characters with rough resemblences of the wardrobe design done so far. The plan is to do the entire movie with 3D animatics as a previs process.The animation isn’t complex and the models are simple to keep rendering times as fast as possible during this phase of the project.  There were 25 different shots animated and rendered seperately and then combined into one video.

We threw some of the voice over dialog that went with the scene and some possible music on the animatic just for fun.  We will also add sound Fx as we progress.  The animatic was rendered small resolution to keep the file size down for Internet viewing by the team.  A larger, higher quality render will be integrated into the official Story Reel we are currently editing together with the voice over dialog.
