Notes from Sept. 29/2011

Mentor Meeting with James Caswell
  • show them pushing the little girl away during the war room scene
  • bully could be potentially the same size as the little girl (could make him a little nerd)
  • bully doesn't have to be masked, since we don't see him till the end
  • come up with a map in relation to where everything is
  • establish  coreography of where each action is taking place
  • have a character lineup prepared
  • concept sketches of fort and location designs
  • Jim suggested that the toys could be caricatured 
  • think about production pipeline
  • think about software
  • figure out how to show effects, such as shadows
  • figure out the time of day action or story is taking place
  • figure out colour scheme of snow - suggestions included (cerulean blue, soft blue or soft green tinge)
  • reference Insomnia or Snow dogs for colour scheme of snow
  • scene 8-act 1- CU not necessary 
  • C/U of brother getting angry should be a wider shot and then truck into his facial expression (frame 29)
  • Design characters based on everyone's drawing level. Make sure its not too difficult for everyone to draw 
  • frame 22 not necesssary ( right now its been flipped over on the corkboard)
