Complete the following:
  1. Create a web portfolio space of some kind to post media developed for this course and that could be used afterwards to show your work. You may create your own site using HTML, CSS, etc. and host it on your student web space or use some third party setup that could include hosts such as Carbonmade. It may be simple, now, but work to make it a clean and professional portfolio-style site rather than a blog, etc.
  2. Post the videos from your homework up to this point. (2D and 3D animation exercises).
  3. Complete, post, and submit via Dropbox your story pack, consisting of the following:
    •           — A .pdf file that includes the title, premise, and treatment. (All programs on MacOS may print to PDF. On Windows, use Acrobat or a free program such as CutePDF).
    •           — The same file (or another .pdf) should include the script with proper industry formatting (consider something like Trelby if needed).
    •           — The same file (or another .pdf) should include the shot list with framing descriptions and also storyboard illustrations (with 16:9 or 1.85 aspect-ratio frames, one per page). For bonus, also complete overheads for each scene.
    •           — The same file (or another .pdf) should also include at least one color-key per scene.
    •           — A movie file (1280 x 720 H.264 Quicktime .mov) that contains the animatic with possibly rough sound and/or dialogue.
    •           (All of the above should be in one folder named 320_YOURLASTNAME_P1_STORYTITLE with clearly named documents).
Due Thursday, September 5 by class-time. Be prepared to present any aspects of your story. Ideally, you should be able to read your logline/premise and then play your animatic and have it stand alone to tell your story!  (Or at least with a little narration from you, if absolutely needed). Then show your color key(s) to show your visual style/art direction/palette. That should be about it. If you have to read your treatment or script or storyboard descriptions — you might not have done your job thoroughly.
