It was just then that I tried out how it works to put collaged background together with hand drawn body, I also decided to change a few shots to clarify the story a bit more.At that time I still had an idea of putting different animation techniques together (2D, 3D and live action).


Building new assets (backgrounds and character poses)


I redraw all the characters positions with ink and watercolors, to get closer to the preferable look of the film.











Backgrounds were done in Photoshop, using different photo references, collaging them together into a completely new composition. I used only materials that resembled japanese origami or paper cutouts to express the idea of fragility of the subject matter.


ROUGH ANIMATIC


We decided to do the first version of the storyboard. Despite nice look, all its in-between cuts of rhythmic montage made it confusing and rather hard to follow for someone who is unfamiliar with the story.


ROUGH storyboard





After building a Mood Board and group discussion of the two mayor ideas for the film I decided to storyboard them both in pencil. In the first version of the idea we would start with character dying in the beginning and the whole film would be flashback on her fight for achieving her wish to run again. In the second one the time would progress more analytically, we would show her past in the beginning, then progress to the hospital scene where she dies. So first one more optimistic, second more pessimistic version.
