Gerry Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Here's a quick storyboard just to see if this gag works. The audio is a very sincere Irish brogue-y monolog and I wanted to give it a twist. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSpleen Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 nice work! Are the birds an oil painting on the wall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nino banano Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Hi Gerry, I like the idea, hope to see the animation finished... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 spleen, yeah, it's a poster of pigeons, sort of a red herring to set up the gag. Might have a window on the left for him to gesture toward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusty Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I love it! I think you should disguise the birds a bit... make them more subtile... or maybe they just stood out because the rest was sketch. I guessed that it wasn't about birds before the end because the birds were so 'out there' but perhaps they won't be in the finished product. Or maybe my brain just looks for that kind of thing. Really good no matter what... most short animations don't do as well. Rusty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Thanks Rusty! I did just grab a good poster off the internets, but I've thought about "cartooning" it or toning it down somehow. But it screams mainly because the rest is just line sketches. It'll be more integrated as I go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomeSlice Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I think the pidgins work, but a more obvious and perhaps more readily accessible association would be a picture of his kids. Still, its a nice gag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted May 6, 2009 Hash Fellow Share Posted May 6, 2009 That's a good gag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
