Nights On Pluto - Production Log 2

This was a long hard slog. I finally finished a 25 minute animatic for Nights On Pluto. I initially wanted to do a 2D storyboard but then I decided to go fully 3D and make a 3D animatic because I don’t like drawing at all, and I was going to recreate the 2D shots in 3D anyway so why not start there? Plus in 3D I could plan my character blocking, camera angles and moves better.

What’s projected or emitted by the screen is the object of our desire. As people, we are pushed by internal drives towards objects of our desires.
