This is our final animatic. After a looooot of changes we finally ended with a good storyline some awesome characters and almost finalised scenes. I think we'll be changing the beginning where the camera zooms in; we'll have a pan down into Penryn instead as this will be much easier for us to animate at a late date and it will look a lot better in 2D. We had a big dilemma with the middle section of the story and what would make him want to return home. We came up with the joint decision on seeing his father in his sketchbook that he took with him everywhere and his father reminded him that home is where he should be. We also struggled with scene transitions as we didn't know how he would reach the next country, but as it is slightly abstract we decided to have a long background where he walks into the next country to enhance the idea of travel, exploring and moving forwards.
We may not have time to finish the animation by the deadline now but we're really happy with the final story that we settled on and glad we stuck with it.
