He met us this morning and had a look at our animatic a few times and gave us some great feedback. He suggested that we need to prolong the fight scene, it needs to be the centerpiece of the film. It needs more action and to really push the boundaries. The sound during a fight is very
Catch-up screening
Our first screening and catch up since the Christmas holidays with the lectures and the whole 3rd year. It is always fun to see how far along the other projects are and to listen to the different feedback that also might be helpful for my own film. Our feedback was to look into our designs of our characters as they look too similar, it is difficult to know who is who. Especially in the end scene where there's a new character who enters.
