pre-production research...

Having already started getting a few bits and bobs together for the pre-production research pages, I realised in Kathy's lesson that I need to delve a little deeper into each area and really focus in on the architecture of the particular places and costumes etc. As there is such a range in the scripts, countries and time periods it's hard to focus in as each area is so wide. I think it is probably best to approach it by looking at one at a time.

Today I took the advice and website Kathy mentioned and had a good look through as well as finding some more images on other pages. Using these I managed to find some really lovely costumes or dresses for the Titanic script, and some much clearer images or representations of London Streets. Using these photos I then re-drew them or made quick sketches, making the odd adjustment here and there.
I like working and researching in this way as it enables me to take the examples I find, but make them exactly what I need or my own.

Using these I can then think about the angles I have them at and what I need or what would be best for each scene. So, now that I have some more resources to work from, after drawing them out and getting them to my liking, I will think more about how they may appear or would be filmed and re-create them to match the storyboard.

I then need to do the same for the other scripts and areas I am focusing on...


Pre-production pages so far..all still being worked on...
