Storyboard revisions....

(copy-pasted from a post i made to my class yahoo group)

I haven't put it in animatic format until I can nail down the
story....below are the links.

The beginning is similar to my previous version
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STzWqUjEfAg) except, I changed the
setting to a coffee shop and male character is reading a book on
"Guide to Confidence" or something like that. And the second half of
the scene is extended differently...

When the female character is stopped from leaving, the guy becomes too
nervous and speechless to talk to the girl. He frantically turns
around to review the book he was reading earlier. The girl notices
this, taps his shoulder, and reveals she was also reading the same
book. The guy smiles in relief. In the end, they are sitting at the
coffee table chattering away... Then a end cut to the two copies of
the book with title of the film perhaps...

Not sure if that's okay or what I should cut etc. I'm fixed on keeping
the beginning half of the scene. Hopefully it's under 30 sec...

I'm getting a headache thinking how long it will take to finish this....

Well I don't know if it has more 'punch' or not, but I personally like the way the story/scene unfolds in this version more than the previous one. Hopefully you will be able to keep it under the limit and not have to rework it a lot more than you already have.

Aww that's even cuter. But both are so cute. Ahh I'm a sap for these kinds of things. I hope your teacher approves it, it's definitely an awesome idea that deserves to be completed.

xD But completely priceless, a guy who's trying to talk then turns back and refers to his book.

I also like how concentrated he looks at the beginning when he's reading the book. <3

The change is a nice combination of the ideas suggested in class :D I like it.

Is the girl peeking to the side on 7th panel? (Just trying to see how she's able to recognize the book if he hides it frontally.)

i'm trying to figure that out too....unless she walks in front of him or recognize a certain page....

...maybe it slips out of his hands due to his nervousness XD? And the girl sees it/picks it up?

ack...i tried laying the scene out...but looks like it'll take more shots....

do you think chai will go over the storyboard again individually or something?

Hmm he said we're gonna be animating... I'm taking that as we're working by ourselves unless we have questions for him. Not sure =/ cuz he'll also be going over design sketches.

OMG, the scenes in the vid and pages were just so too darn cute XD

I loved how the guy embarassingly looks away and the way she smiles as she looks back at her book.

The vid ending was also nice =D Put it as a GIF icon!
