Topic: The Adventures of Jane - Production Topic

All right 2016 a new year woot! With a new year comes a new project, well a project that I've started at the end of 2015 mini/lol. So for my next project I'm working on The Adventures of Jane.

I wanted to tackle a space opera film of my very own and got inspiration from 2001: A Space Odyssey. It's a smaller project, but I really wanted to push my skills in cinematography as well as animation. I'm about halfway done with animation so here's some of what I have so far. Hope you enjoy and stay tuned.

Those pictures always evoked 2001 to me.

Re: The Adventures of Jane - Production Topic

It's been a while...but I'm somewhat back in the meanwhile. Had to finish up school and stuff sorry about that. Almost done just a couple more weeks mini/lol ! Right now I'm doing a rewrite of the script. I'm finding it hard to stay with the story I want to tell so in the mean time I'm doing a rewrite and hopefully it will be done before the summer begins. Fingers crossed:D

Pretty cool.  I wrote my own space opera around the pink astronaut, Galactic Girl minifigure from collectible series 6.

Re: The Adventures of Jane - Production Topic

Are you restarting animation? Or just keeping what you have and finishing?

I do not brickfilm anymore, but you can see my live action stuff here.

Re: The Adventures of Jane - Production Topic

So far I'm keeping some of the animation I started with, other than that I'm starting over. I didn't get too far in the animation stage so it's no problem.

Re: The Adventures of Jane - Production Topic

Finally after some time, I've finished storyboarding! Off to set building and designing minifigures! Hopefully I can start filming by this weekend. Fingers crossed mini/XD

Re: The Adventures of Jane - Production Topic

Just a quick update:
I've just about finished another scene and I'm almost halfway done with the animation mini/smile

Here's a frame from the scene!

Re: The Adventures of Jane - Production Topic

Looks nice! You did a great job lighting up the lady's face while still keeping her in the shadows. How did you manage that?
I really like the sharp line between light and dark, but I feel the alien should be sitting a bit further from the dividing line.
The framing may be a tad off, but the lighting really makes this pop.

Thank you so much. Yeah I had the light tilted away from the set a little more so I could get a good shape around the alien and keep it dark in the background. The lady was just approaching the light so I was able to focus on her and she was focus.

Re: The Adventures of Jane - Production Topic

I must say I really like these frames so far. Some really nice set detailing and lighting. Looking forward to the final product!

It's Adobe Premiere. This particular screenshot is from its use on a Mac, but it's available for both operating systems.
