Storyboards

So the next step is getting the story on the roll, so with the help of Ian and Hazel, the storyboards were created, at this point the script is at version 1, I only state this is because I had to redo the script so many times (6 in all).

So Enjoy the storyboards:

Note: The little words bellow each picture was to original help the animators to know when to copy the expression from the storyboards, sadly with the amount of changes I done, this idea was scrapped.


Character Development


Front and side views of the 4 Bullets

OK so you seen the pitch and what the original drawings look like. But now I needed to improve the story as well as the characters. I took the original designs of the characters and as seen above changed them to their finished state which one can see in the final film. Bellow is the Guy, who is now called Billy O' Bob Bob which was designed by my friend Matt Jones (also known as Jam).

I also Coloured Bob, so I knew what colours I needed when he is textured

Characters

OK so I got my pitch picked, and as you can see in it, the main 4 characters that I needed, plus the Guy who shoots the gun. Here is a bit more detail on the Original drawings for each of the characters.

They are

Gonzo: Lazy Mexican









Terry: TomBoy girl










Chipp: Fat English guy, bit of a lad.









Pepper: Cool rapper, not really sure whats going on.










Guy: Lives in a deserted place and likes to shoot things.
