Mid Project Review & Sound Animatic

Yesterday i had my mid project review, this consisted of sitting in a lecture theatre showing my animatic to three tutors who commented on what i had done, mainly to see if they understood my film, allowing me to gain feedback on what i had done so far and to help with any problems i had; i felt this review went very well, the tutors seemed to like my idea, especially with the sound effects that i added, i heard a few chuckles, so i took this as positive feedback as well. As i think i said in my last update i was unsure whether to continue with the random idea or too look more into a narrative type piece, when talking to the tutors they seemed to like the randomness of the piece, but also wanted to see the workman build something.

After a few more comments about sound and some of the tests that i did, one tutor gave me a great idea for my film, which i shall now briefly explain...

This idea revolved around the blueprint and the workman, what would happen is that the blueprint will be ordinary, show wood, measurements and other general plans that a normal blueprint would show, but after a while of using some tools he would look back at the blueprint and begin changing it to suit his own work, or what would be happening in front of him. This would continue throughout until at the end all his blueprint would show is a big pile of mess, which would be exactly what he sees in front of him.

This idea shows that everything you do does not go to plan or will never go the way you expect it to.

But as will be shown in the end the workman will be happy with his end result again enforcing this idea even more.

Below is the animatic with sound, i wish to start filming properly over the easter break and the week after easter, allowing me time to edit my piece sound and video wise to try and portray this idea.
