I do CGI and Motion Control work on ?CSI? and the animatics they give me look like the type of graphics I can create on Frame Forge.
I found it fun and almost addicting to create little animated sequences. You are pretty much creating a Computer Graphic world like they do on effects films. It?s fun to move the camera angles around to tell your story. Just pulling elements into a 3d environment. I downloaded a demo of Frame Forge and found it technically pretty easy to use. I heard of infographic more like tools like Maya or some others but I'm afraid that would be much to "big" for what I just want to do Would be great if designed for photo/cinematography (lumination values, albedo parameters and figures avaiable) and gel corrections virtually possible. Does such a thing exist ?is it included in the tools you were talking about ?Īlso - I recon it's not about story board but may be related to this subject somehow, is there a light tool to sort of virtually play with light on simple objects or 3D caracters (or the set I would draw with the tool imagined above) to show students the basics of lighting : specific/diffuse, direction, contrast, backlight, 3 points. Alain Aubert) andI think drawing sketches is certainly easier than using a software, even if you're not talented, but I would be interested into a very light tool that would permit to build mass plans (as seen from top) with doors, windows, dimensions and furniture sets, and viewing angles (field of view) only (according to focal lenght and format). I learned storyboard at Louis Lumière (thanks to M. "storyboard", since about 2 years, do you have that in the US ? In france we have a magazine specialized in story board, called. That way, if I need to convey an idea on set with a sketch, I can just whip out a pen and do it.Īre you going to carry around a laptop, boot the thing, run the program and start messing with these programs when a 15 second drawing would do the same thing?Ĭomputers are not solutions for EVERYTHING, and they definitely DO NOT make everything in the world easier! You just spend so much time screwing with the program, hunting down functions in menus, etc., that it interrupts the creative process, not embellishes it.Īnd I'm not great at drawing either, but I decided to buy a book on beginning figure drawing, since my time is better spent learning how to do that better. That's one reason I pretty much abandoned MIDI for audio, after using it for almost 20 years, and just went with actually playing the stuff and digitally recording real live audio. It's one of those things you end up spending too much time screwing around with software. The only gun they had in the program was a freakin' machine gun. The images are just too generic to be useful, for instance, I needed a gun for the character to carry, but a pistol. There are some things that using software doesn't make sense on, and this is one of them. I can't remember which I used, but I downloaded a demo, and quickly decided it was a huge waste of time. Good luck with your search for storyboard program! The spontaneous thing turns out to makeįor a better scene. Lot of times something spontaneous happens anyway and we do not follow
Scenes for each act in my journal along with notes as reminders of my selfĬreated ideas, concerning how to shoot the scene. I just break my script down into 3 acts and sketch The scene is greatly detailed my girlfriend(she's a filmaker too) will actuallyĭraw a detailed storyboard for me,just of that scene. Schedule,sketch of scenes,notes pertaining to each scene. I do not really storyboard rather I use a journal which is a shooting Write my scripts and it does a great job formatting script(automated so to Ject to learn how to shoot best mini-dv possible). Just food for thoughtĬraig, I write my own scripts for my own mini-dv movies(working as a pro. With this program you can actually build sets. Frame Forge 3D is atĭemo for download(25mb) with limitations and you can not print what youĬreate. Storyboard Quick- (they advertise it asĮasy to use,easy to create quick storyboarding). Hello Craig! Storyboard Quick has tutorials at their site as how to use
