Storyboard

So after a lot of brainstorming and sketching of concepts, me and Leonard had to narrow down the choices we had and then take it forward to get feedback from the Rave Live people.

First storyboard is the futuristic speeding bike that drives across the city, which then in turn reveals the city to be the Rave Live 2 Ident.

2nd idea that i chose was the idea of the Rave Live Ident to be constructed in a factory like how a car is created in real life factory. Certain mechanical arms appear and start putting the logo together.

Finally the last idea i put forward was the Spaceship idea below. This idea was the one we decided to produce and so it will be the actual Ident animation for Rave Live, so this idea is a definate thumbs up for go. This is what happens in the storyboard.........

The spacehip glides across a moon and drops off a pod which then lands on the moon. The pod opens up to reveal the logo.

I chose these three final ideas to put forward to the Rave Live people who we are working for. Me and Leonard met the Co-Team leader Emily just a few days after and she looked at all our ideas including the storyboards which i have posted above drawn by me. The feedback that we got back from her was great and she liked all our concepts and ideas that me and Leonard came up with together. Emily told us that ideally one ident animation would be enough but that if we can produce another one on top of that then that would be a bonus.

So me and Leonard went back and thought through which idea we would choose and produce and we decided to to produce two ident animations. The two ideas we chose were my spaceship pod idea which was storyboarded above and Leonard's Bumble Bee idea. The bumble bee was storyboarded by Leonard and you can check out his blog to find more about that idea that Leonard came up with.

The reason we chose those two ideas was because out of all the ideas, these two ideas were ones we could technically create confidently and quickly. Emily told us that the deadline will be the 22nd of April and obviously for me and Leonard that was a complete surprise. That gives us 3 weeks to produce the work and so when we were picking the two ideas that we were going to produce, we had to take into account the limited time we would have and which ones we can realistically can produce within the timeframe given and within our own ability.

So i have decided to produce the Spaceship pod idea, with Leonard helping me on the modelling and Leonard has chosen to produce the bumble bee idea. I will be helping Leonard with either texturing, modelling or animating.

Below are some of the other storyboards that me and Leonard came up with.
