Presentation of animatic of thriller opening.

My group and I presented our animatic to the rest of the class. Overall, good comments, but we need to go back to the drawing board and edit some of our shots as a lot of our animatic is the main girl character in our story running, when really we need to add more of her facial expressions and what's going on in the area to create more suspense. I am pleased with our final animatic as we had flashbacks in our animatic, which is difficult to present in a storyboard, but the class said they understood the flashbacks, without the need of it being explained. Also our sounds were good, created the right atmosphere and helped the people watching it know what was going on, for example; sounds of footsteps were used for a shot coming from behind the girl, to let the audience know that it was the antagonist creeping up on her. I think when we start filming that it will go well and the animatic gave me and my group a good understanding of what needs to be included and what needs to be changed to make a good thriller film opening. I'm also proud of my group, as we are working a lot more as a team, with sharing jobs to make sure that not only one person gets the work load.
