Well, we actually got a draft of the Story Reel completed and distributed internally to our cast and crew. We are working on producing shorts from the Story Reel that can be shown on this website and YouTube publicly.
An update is way overdue. Although I’ve been busy with the day job, and handling a move to a new house, our team has continued progress on the Story Reel. I will get back into the habit of posting here. We appreciate those who have stayed in touch in spite of the dry spell.
Here is what has been going on.
Story Reel Version 0.2 was shown and handed out at our January 5th annual meeting.
Our primary goal for the next five to six months is the development of a 3D animatic version of the Story Reel to replace the current 2D version made up of storyboard panels.
We have switched from holding weekly editing meetings to doing weekly collaborative 3D sessions. A small animation studio has been put together in my new house with five computers for our team to work on building the 3D elements for the next version of the Story Reel… and we have a full house every week.
We also continue working remotely with artists on unfinished wardrobe designs and Story Reel color schemes. There is an on going need for production design illustrators and story artists as concepts get changed or developed further.
The Story Reel has served its purpose in proving out the execution of the script and its now time for another script revision based on what met my vision for the film and what fell short of working out. A revised script has been drafted and will be used for the next draft of the Story Reel.
