Vegetative Boundaries
Today I received my first shots on our latest piece of cinematic confection. I've been given some really cool acting moments, so I'm very happy, (along with that familiar daunted feeling, of course). In spite of feeling like I should be pressing buttons by now, and thus proving that it's worth having small Welshmen around, I am trying to follow my own blog ramblings and take the time to just think about what I want to achieve with each shot.
When the time comes to present my ideas, I am going to show some drawings of poses. That's right! The computer geek is going to use a pencil and paper! I know this all very irregular, but I feel I should give it a go. Hmmm.... Did I mention I can't really draw? Oh dear. In addition, this is made all the more worrying by the fact that I work with some of the finest 2D animators/draughtsmen in the world.
Ho Hum.

It'll all be fine, of course - it is the ideas that matter!

heheh
i cant really draw either....so generally just block the shot in the computer *shame*
but from time to time i will grab a pencil and just drag a few poses of the character.
the drawings really suck (nobody else knows what it is except me :P ), but it just gets me thinking about the shot a bit more.
I dont care what the drawing looks like (and i dont really put any effort into making it look nice).....it's merely a process to get me thinking....to come up with ideas.....
i really should start drawing more......but like Kevan said, it can be a bit intimidating drawing alongside some of the most talented people in the world.
