New thoughts...

Thanks for all of the responses about my girl/boy issue. I agree that a guy camper might do better for my story, however, since I'm with my sister for the weekend, she'll be the one I use for now. I've taken some live action shots of her that I'm putting into my animatic. I've also been watching my "I Shouldn't Be Alive" DVDs this weekend. I'm not sure how similar I can make my thesis. Obviously, mine will have a sort of comedic flair, which the show certainly does not. Also, in the show, they do interviews with the survivors, and mine is only the story. However, the way they should what is happening inside the body is a look I like. I know I've been thinking about these "Scientific shots" to show what is happening to specific organs. A lot of my comments on this blog have suggested a voice over to make it more understandable. Try to picture this: what if I had a CG body, which was "see through" except for the organs inside, and the way I went from live action to CG was just a quick flash from the camper, to a CG body in the same position as the real camper had been in. From there, we use the fake CG camera to move into the body to an organ that a narrator is talking about, explaining to the viewer what is happening with that specific organ or muscle. I know this deviates a bit from what I previously had been planning, but this is what I've been seeing done in the reference I have been looking at, and I really like the look of the transition. This way I would be better able to show off my modeling skills, but the same body (model) would be used through all of the shots. I'll show a clip of my reference on Wednesday to better explain what I'm talking about. Thanks for reading this long post everyone! Now my question is, should I continue working on an animatic with "scientific shots", or should I work on stills with a CG body to put into the animatic instead? Any ideas??
