Title: Storyboard - Seq 5 & 6

Storyboard for Sequence 5 & 6
Sequence 5 is long and will need a choreographed fight scene, so I think we need to start a new thread for it. Sequence 6 is really short, so we'll do that one here as well. Please follow the file naming rules as outlined in the thread for seq 1-4.

Wow, those are really great panels, Nayade!
I really need to assemble these into a story reel, but I'm pressed for time right now since I leave town soon for a three week vacation. So I'm afraid I have to put that off until I return, but I'll get it done and it will look great!
This is going to be an awesome looking sequence! I have some tentative music picked out for it as well.

:faint: *Pushes eyes back into skull and picks jaw up off of floor* Those drawings are absolutely AMAZING! :wub: :wub: :wub: Have you considered an occupation as a cartoonist or something? The way you drew it out is a lot like what I pictured as I read the episode. Wonderful job! :cookie: :cookie: :cookie: :cookie:

Well nop, but it will be great if I could, I like the idea of being able to create something like a comic or characters. I'm always thinking in stories or making characters, but I always reject them. :D

Thats great storyboarding Nayade, really does show whats happening.
I also think that a zoom-in on Conners eyes would look great.

You are welcome.

I could make these into a slideshow-style animation if you want. Any requirements on speed? Maybe a second or two between frames, long enough to know what's going on but short enough that the whole thing doesn't take too long to go through?

No need. I'm already working on that. :)
Renesh - July 16, 2008 02:24 AM (GMT)
Ah, alright. Just thought I'd offer! :)
The Furox - July 28, 2008 07:11 AM (GMT)
The fight during this sequence is something I'd to extend beyond what's in the script. This and a couple of other places in the script are places for us to put our own mark on the animation for this project, so let's go for it! :)
I've been talking to Nayade about it and she agrees. I have a piece of music picked out that is 1.5 minutes long for the fight itself, so we've got some space we can fill in here. Nayade's idea is to add more martial arts style fighting between Connor and Word as opposed to more mag moves, and I agree. The script has enough mag moves in it and I think balancing it out with more physical moves would be good. So let's see if we can come up with some interesting moves that are semi-realistic, sort of like stuff you might see in a Jackie Chan movie.
Some ideas I had:
I like what I call the "wall flip" that I've seen in movies. This is where one character runs towards a wall at full speed, runs part way up the wall, then pushes off the wall and does a mid-air somersault back over the head his opponent to land behind his opponent for his next attack move. That always looks cool. :)
Also, there's a dragon in the room so let's have some fighting around the dragon. Not attacking the dragon of course, since the dragon really isn't directly involved in the fight (plus it's generally a bad idea to make a creature bigger than you mad at you), but they could use the dragon as cover briefly to avoid the other. For example, let's say Connor and Word are involved in a rapid hand-to-hand fight, each throwing punches which the other is deftly blocking. Word is advancing on Connor who's backing up slowly. We see from Word's point of view as he appears to be getting the upper hand on Connor; Word gets ready to throw a big punch when Connor suddenly ducks out of the way and we see that Connor had been maneuvering Word so that Word is now directly facing the dragon, and when Connor ducked, Words punch would have been directed at the dragon's head. We see the dragon looking angry at Word and baring his teeth, surprising Word and causing him to have to pull his punch back to avoid hitting the dragon, then Connor catches Word off balance at this instant and trips him. Word rolls away from Connor, leaps back on his feet and the fight quickly continues. This would all go by fairly quickly, like in about 10 seconds. So we've got room to squeeze several things like this in.
So let's intensify the fighting a bit here and see how exciting we can get it! :dance:

Thats great Furox and Nayade, i too think it might be too much magging if we do that alone.
And the back-flip will be good too. Like we see at the beginning of the episode 'The Stand', Artha and Beau run towards the post when the Dragon Eyes chase them, jump onto it and flip backwards and then attack them."Hit the road!"

06-13.0 & 14.0_Nayade
06-14.1 & 15.0_NayadeYou can find them here-->
Sequence 06For this time I use a type of storyboard that Mari shows
Here. I really liked how looks like, easy and nice to see, is the one I most liked. I think we could use the design that shows Mari as an universal design for the storyboard, so we would have an universality among all those who perform the Storyboard.
Also, since I can send the pannels to Furox in a zip file I decided to upload them like these, is more easy and fast. :P , also, you can see the dialogs too.
Concrits, comments, ideas etc, are very welcome. :)
in the meantime, I will focus on the sequence 5.

All I can say is wow, Nayade! This is going to rock thanks to you. :dance:
As for the action sceens, I'm a black belt in martial arts. If needed I can give some ideas on how to make some sweet moves that are realistic at the same time.
Nayade - August 27, 2008 05:05 AM (GMT)
Sorry for the delay, I have been busy visiting two job fairs and uploading some things on devianart ^^.
But now, I'm back :).
Ok, I have been thinking that Word can get one of the gears that are in the walls and use it against Connor. I think that the gear can be a shooter type, like a gun but not so fast. Also, here we can add the back-flip that was suggested by Furox. So, in resume, I have been thinking that Word can do a back-flip to reach the gear, he can shoot against Connor a couple of times and then the gear get stuck and Connor takes advantage of the situation and paralyze Word (with a special move that usually is used in Aikido or in other similar martial arts techniques) and takes away the gear.
Apart of that;
I think we can make them with the same style but with some diferences between them. I think we can customize their styles of martial arts in different ways, Word would use more agressive moves and Connor would use more moves that "use the energy of the opponent". Just adding two or four different moves for each one.
