Original Script for "My Science Project" | Adobe Story | Fantastic Voyage
This is the original script for my animation "my science project".
I'm in the middle of re-writing it so it becomes suitable for a voice over but felt that the original needed to be posted to connect with the original animatic.

Colour Comps | Jake | Main Character | Illustrator | From Script to Screen
These are the colour comps for Jake, the main character in my script. I really like the plain neutral colours of 4, clothing wise but I also like the bolder tones in 5.

Feedback please | Test Pre-viz | From Script to Screen
While working on computerizing my storyboard, I thought I should test it out in terms of a pre-viz incase I need to add in some extra shots or even remove some to make it flow. This was made using the original pencil storyboard.
If anyone has any feedback on the shots used or the timing, it would be much appreciated.
Final Script | From Script to Screen
At the moment, this is my final script for the project. (if there are any spelling mistakes or mistakes that I haven't noticed, please let me know and I will change and update it)

Original Storyboard | From Script to Screen
This is my original storyboards for my animation. I'm currently in the process of computerizing these images but thought I should have a separate post with just the storyboards.

Jake | Main Character | From Script to Screen
This is Jake, my main character. Before I began my storyboard I did draw him by hand but I've now computerized him in Illustrator. I've coloured him with some basic, natural tones. Next, I want to do a few colour comps of him just to get a feel of how he could look in the environments and then side by side with the other interns.
Pre-Vis | Work in Progress | Main Factory | From Script to Screen
I've been struggling with the layout of my factory and how to draw it for my storyboards so I have created a quick mock up which will be used as part of my pre-vis. Although it is not completed it is really helping with how my factory layout could potentially be seen and will be a great help when drawing these scenes. This is a work in progress and may potentially change layout as I begin to draw my storyboard out more for the animatic.
Elf Tanks | Illustrator | From Script to Screen
This is part of one of the environments that will feature at the end of my story where Jake stumbles into the 'cloning room'. Here we see two former interns that have been transformed into elves and featuring the bauble gas masks. This is only part of the room and I will be drawing more of it shortly.

Warehouse Research | From Script to Screen
I'm assuming that most of the warehouses as shown above are from the shape time period as they all have the large glass windows (sometimes spanning 2 floors or more for maximum light), wooden flooring, large brick columns to support the roofs of the large open spaces. details like this will be really nice to add into my work and will give the environment more character.

Research for the Elves | From Script to Screen
I'm beginning to start in-depth research for my story and its characters. One of the main groups to consider is the elves. Traditionally they are the short, sweet characters with pointy ears and curly shoes. I'm not sure if this is the route I want to go down but I think at this stage it will fit them most effectively.
Post OGR Thoughts | From Script to Screen
After my feedback, I was glad to get the green light with only a few minor tweaks needed. Helium balloons will make an appearance twice. First as a pleasant thing before being shown as used for evil. This means that the helium balloons will be used to celebrate the new interns arrival and then again at the end to make the elves voices squeaky.
This is my story so far with some minor tweaks…
A young intern wins one of several placements and must battle it out to be named as ‘Santa’s Little Helper’ at a world renowned toy workshop. Little does he realise that this factory has a dark secret. His colleagues are slowly going missing and there is an ominous locked door in the factory that he has seen people enter but never leave from…
When he arrives, he is ushered into a room filled with balloons and a banner saying “Congratulations! You have been chosen!” A worker allocates each of them with their work and sets the rules. The first and foremost being “Do not enter the door. There are some nasty chemicals being used in there”.
His suspicions are first aroused when one of his co-workers, a close friend, disappears when searching for a machine part. He believes he sees him a week later but more elf like…but as more interns come and go in the factory each week, he is certain that some of the familiar faces of his previous workers are still here but cannot prove his suspicions.
He sees workers in hazard suits enter the door daily and becomes more and more curious, so when a fellow worker leaves the mysterious door ajar, he seizes his opportunity to scramble through, only to discover a terrible secret. The room is filled with ceiling to floor ‘cutesifiers’ turning his old co-workers into overly cute elf figures.
Reindeers are powering the machines in hamster wheel like contraptions and huge vats of liquid that are being pumped into the ‘elves’ with signs saying “sugar”, “spice” and “everything nice”. The final step of the process sees giant helium balloons above the elves who are strapped to chairs, being forced to inhale more and more to perfect the iconic squeaky voice.
He runs out only to have Santa appear. With the facade broken, Santa places his hand on the interns’ shoulder and says “Son, where did you think all the elves came from?”
Image of shocked interns face then cut to black.
My next step for this project is to start research and begin some basic character designs. I think my first port of call should be research around elves, factory/warehouse/production line settings and interns. I’m hoping to map my script out slowly while doing this so I can get a sense of the overall theme.

Arthur Christmas | Video | Storyboard | Animatic | Script | From Script to Screen
This is a summary post for all work done relating to Arthur Christmas! (Including the clip of the film, storyboard, animatic and script write up)
The scene in which I have drawn the storyboard from is in the video above. Watch from 5:42 - 7:00.
Film Script Write Up | Arthur Christmas | Script | From Script to Screen
This is my write up of the Family scene from Arthur Christmas using Adobe Story. This was a lot easier to do than I first thought although I'm not sure that my script is formatted correctly in some places.
Animatic | Arthur Christmas | From Script to Screen
This is the animatic made from the storyboard of Arthur Christmas. The timing is slightly off in some parts but this is due to the timings on Premiere Pro. Every time I add a half second to the end of it it changes it immediately. (Example 00:00:03:50 to about 00:00:07:00 for no reason at all)
If someone could help me remedy this I'd love to go back and edit this further. Maybe add in a few more images to break up the longer chunks and reflect the on screen action further.
