Icarus is just giving me nothing but issues!

I don't know if it's just me, but it's just not doing a very good job at divining the camera motion. I guess I should have used a tripod and not free motion, but come on. The camera was NOT moved very much during filming. Just the normal amount of somebody filming free hand.

But as it is, my character slides around, and doesn't stay where he's supposed to. I've done the Icarus thing over and over, and it just is being stupid!

Also, it's not allowing me to use a clip longer than 172 frames. Anybody else running into this?

Animatic Fun Times

K, i tried to just upload an animated gif of my animatic because i thought it would save time and i wouldn't have to deal with vimeo uploading times....but

Things never work out the easy way....at least in the middle of the night you don't have to wait hours for your video to be converted.

This animatic is sort of rough, mostly because I just wanted something DONE for this project. Having an animatic makes me feel like I'm committed to the idea, which is a nice feeling.

I think I need to add some cursory text, etc. so that other people besides me know what's going on in it. I mean, for all anybody outside our class knows, the robot just made a dumb "your mom" joke and the person got pissed off.

Also, the actor in animatic should be interpreted as androgynous, because I've been having trouble getting and actor for this. I think i've settled on one of my gal pals. But i didn't feel like adding girly features to these sketchies.
