Our first day in the booth was mostly just cementing the idea down and adding some more elements to the story board (so if you went about you didn't miss very much.
here is an early sketch of the storyboard.
So I went to york to find blueprints of as part of the animation, the national rail museum were more than happy to help me (I would say a little to happy as the lovely bloke talked me through what felt like the whole history of trains I had to stop him when he was about to launch into model trains.) I found what I was looking for and had a little test at home.
I then did a very rough animatic (Im not having a red background) with some scrap paper trees I had. Doing this gave me a good idea of whether what Im trying to do will work.
Mine and el's first real day in the animation booth. We only had one cutting matt so we had too share. basically what we are doing is cutting out buildings from photographs we took, then we decided to add more work for ourselves by cutting all the windows out, we are then going to put them in front of a green screen so I can key out the background, and I can also back light them with some gels to give some nice lights for the windows.

Today's work in the booth, was similar to the day before except I think I had the better deal I was mostly drawing the trees while El had to endure the hand cramp of cutting them out.
