The Meaning of Life
Version 5 of the Animatic
I filmed more reference footage, found some videos of a VW bus and an antique car for shots 10 & 11, and created a 3D Maya animation for shot 22. I also added a few shots based on feedback from Professor Karlson, most noticeably shot 34 that hints at the beginning to bring the entire film together. I also added a credits sequence, but I'm leaving that as a wishlist item. I plan on editing the composition of shot 26 to be more dramatic by making the sculpture more disappointing by sizing it down and having Cedar looking down on it.

Color Script Draft
This is a very rough idea of what I want the color script to be. I took screenshots of the major moments in the film and based on my lighting notes in my shot list, came up with solid colors for each. They won't be as saturated; I just wanted to get a basic idea of what my color script should be so I can get a feel for the tone throughout the film.
