Animatic

By creating the animatic on the IMac enabled my group and I to get a feel for how the film is going to look at the end product before having filmed it. The animatic helped to show shots that were being used such as eye line match, shot-reverse-shot, match on action and many more. This helped us as by putting this as video gave us a clear indication of how long the film is going to last and what shots are going to follow after one and other, from this we found that our film wasn't quite long enough at first and had to add in shots. We did this by adding a jump back to the past tense, this worked really well as we were able to show the audience what childhood this mysterious protagonist had and giving them an understand of why he is the way he is shown presently in the film. 

Along with this we also found that some shots worked better in other places, meaning that the animatic helped sufficiently with the creation of our film as it helped us get a clear indication of how things were going to look at the final product. In addition it also helped us to realise things of which we wouldn’t have been able to if we didn’t put this in a video clip form, leaving the animatic being a very worth while production.
