Major: Full Animation Playthrough

I've completed the animation that I plan to use for my final animation. I know that some parts need to be edited abit, such as updating textures, moving the characters about and stoping them clipping in to themselves, but I'm just happy that I was able to completed the whole poem.

  1. Hey Rhia - congrats on getting this out: so this is my feedback re. a few simple things to tighten everything up. Right now many of your framings are clipping the Moon's head-piece or the king's crown or the tips of their fingers and so on. This should never happen in any shot and I think you need to move your camera and compositions around ensuring that your characters are always framed with such a way as everything looks much more composed, considered and purposeful. It might be for example moving the camera so we're looking slightly down or slightly up - but whatever choices you make, the framing of your characters needs to be better - with no accidental clipping. It will make such a difference to the professionalism of your camera work if you always ensure the framing of each character is always as confident as possible: I'm not talking about the 'over the shoulder' shots - because the focus is on the other character being looked at, but when you've got a character on screen by themselves, you need to ensure they are framed less scrappily - it will be worth it. In addition to this principle, I think you could add gentle 'pushes in' and 'pushes out' in terms of your camera - so when we're looking at the two characters for example, the camera tracks very gently towards them - I think you will find that keeping the camera moving softly and simply like this in your shots will add another layer of life to your film - a sense of things being in motion.

    I think you need to create a bit more space at the front of your film - so start with some black or whatever, then bring up the title, and then fade up the image and then fade out the title. I feel like your film began before I was ready - and it feels a bit rushed to me...
