They Call Me Trinity, The Plan

On Tuesday we were set our next project for the upcoming weeks, until the end of term. My group chose out of the scripts: Frankenstein, They Call Me Trinity and Doves, to animate They Call Me Trinity. This script is the opening from a western. However we've chosen to adapt it somewhat. Our "western" is to be set on a harsh, barren, red planet. The opening scene contains a scene in a Bar, which we felt gave us a chance to be really creative. With plenty to reference when it came to designing the scene, the famous bar scene from Star Wars:A New Hope, for instance. First things first we set ourselves some minor deadlines of what we would like to have achieved by each week up until our deadline. By the coming monday we want to have designed all the characters in our scene, and also have storyboarded the script. We also want to try and get an animatic together, if only a basic one. We decided that we should all make drawings and designs of all the characters and pick features or whole designs for each character based on all the groups designs. I have also spent some time thinging about the look we will be attempting to make for the exterior scenes of the planets surface. I ve been thinking about lighting. lighting colour and also just making general mood boards for the kind of colour schemes that would suit the planet. Next week we will move onto creating the characters and the sets ready to start filming the following week.
