Scene Production Essentials

For the first stage of my scene production, I started with writing out the script. It wasn't that bad cause there wasn't much talking in this scene just alot of movements.

My main characters during this scene would be Daenerys Targaryen and Jorah Mormount. Since this was a finishing scene of an hour long episode I didn't see the need to add in a title sequence to my script or my animatic.

Daenerys Targaryen is seen wearing alot of costumes during game of thrones but this outfit I loved the most which gave me a better idea of which scene I wanted to animate the most. She also has her hair beautifully plaited around the sides forming into one long plait going down her back. This is my verison of an illustrated Daenerys through Adobe Illustrator. I wanted to keep it simple without ruining the definition of Daenerys's face or hair but yet give it that cartoonish style. Here is a frame whenever she is fully coloured in:

I know her skin is darker than in the actual series but I thought her facial features would stand out more rather than being washed out by pasty white skin.

I know that storyboarding was meant to be done before the actual animatic is made, but because mine took nearly over a week of constant work to be drawn, placed into a video and rendered, unfortunately the story board was made after the finalised animation. So I decided to take a few frames from my animatic and place them onto the storyboard to help give a quick description of what happens during the scene. I also labeled each frame in order by number and putting a short sentence of action of the scene.

For the sound of the scene, I found the clip of game of thrones on youtube which was perfect for placing in my animatic. I used the youtube link of the video and converted it into an mp3 which I then brought into photoshop an placed the audio underneath my layers so whenever I was trying to place each layer in order I done it according to sound and when they would appear.
