Phil completed his best board tonight. It was of our most favorite, and primary character of the film: Veovis.
Phil got a cookie.
Adrian’s been cradling the charcoal drawing in his arms as if it was a newborn child. I think we ... [read more]

We’ve found through this process of assembling the animatic that our original ideas and intentions don’t necessary carry over to the screen as much as we had hoped. One element, a line that Anna hears over and over again in her head throug ... [read more]

Phil had some issues with perspective tonight, but I think we got through it. As we move on hammering through boards, some multi-shot sequences have gotten more and more challenging for him. (And we’ve been making them more and more challenging ... [read more]

I sit frustrated and lonely on Adrian’s couch. My stomach grumbles since dinner wasn’t on the table tonight and I had to resolve myself to eating a Lunchable before rushing down here. When I get home tonight, I won’t have Micam to s ... [read more]

Tonight was an interesting night. It started out like usual, but ended up taking a turn that was pretty unexpected. It was a nice break from the last days of grinding through boards, which we expect will continue through the next few days after this. ... [read more]
