The conception of our Hayle animation.

Now that we have our group for our project we have started some lively debate on the whole feel of the project. The breif lends itself to a 'creature comforts' kind of humourous sketch but we have ended up going for a more realist, quite serious angle. We have taken what Winnie said about 'not falling out with anybody' and what she said about her relationship with her husband and put these into two brackets.
The first is:as she is refering to the fact that she does not intend to fall out with anyone in the future then we thought we would highlight the solitude that a lot of old people experience and have her sat in a room by herself. In this way we thought that we could offer a copy of the finished animation (or maybe an edit) to help the aged (a charity).
Secondly, as she is talking about her husband; a flashback into her younger life highlighting what a non confrontational person she was and also the love that was in her marrage. We feel it is important that we get this in as to not put across the wrong message.
The mediums we are going to be using are all digital, some 2d and some 3d, making use of the toon shader in maya.
One of our team is going to be in charge of all the shading so that the continuity is preserved.
So far so good.
