12- New Frankenstein (Big Scale)

11- New Frankenstein

I was thinking maybe the first frakenstein character I designed was too complicated and I tought it would be hard to animate, so I thought why not simplify it.

The new character with the stitches is based on one of my group's character design (Sean's)

He drew his frankenstein with stitches on the forehead, Warren suggested that we add another stitch running along the side of frankenstein's face but I think it looks better with one line of stitches only.

I think it would be a good idea to give Frankenstein's skin a greenish look (Skin colour) and yellowish eyes. (Maybe his hair could be black).

We have dicussed we the group and all agreed that Frankenstein should be slightly taller than Victor by an inch maybe, with wider shoulders ( we will make the final decisions on this according to the size of the set- Because we have to design a set as well).

10- Frankenstein - His face (Big scale view)

here is how I picture Frankenstein

09- Frankenstein itself

Even though it's not sure that we are going to use frankenstein, (Because we might not shoot the second scen because of time), I still want to design Frankenstein, and I might try later to make an armature for it, just to pratice a bit more.

8- Storyboarding (C)

Again I was thinking instead of seeing

Frankenstein's Face, we could see him fro the back (More suspense).

Or maybe if we decide not to shoot scene 2 when Victor runs away, we can finally see Frankenstein's whole face.

7- Armatures

Armatures: I have got a character design but I need to make sure there is a suitable armature enough for this character.

1- When building up an armature, it is important to think about the weight of the character.

• The weight of the head is very important.
• If the head is heavier than the rest of the body, it is important to find a way to make the armature and the plasticine around the body supports the head without collapsing.
• The feet which are at the bottom should also be able to support the heaviness of the head and the rest of the body without collapsing.
  
• To help the feet support the whole body including the head. it would be smart to add a lot of plasticine around the armature foot.
• To build up the arm and the fingers, I thought we could add 3 to 4 short wires to the main armature's arm.
• because Frankenstein has got a very round tummy, I have thought of 2 solutions to build his stomach.

1. I could add round wires to the main armature (And maybe fill the gaps with plasticine)
   
2. Or I could use the plasticine alone to make the body look round (But I prefer the 1st option because if there is too much weight somewhere without the armature supporting it, it might collapse, besides the armature wiould make it easier).

For the head, maybe we can add a ball there and wrap it with plasticine.

6- Storyboarding (B)

here is part 2 of my storyboard

1- As the shadow slowly pushes in on victor and as his eyes fly open,we can apply a fast zoom in effect that will focus on victor's face (Instead of seeing half his body and his whole face) that will emphasize the openng of his eyes.


(With maybe an audio= suspense or surprise like sound effect)

2-I was thinking instead of seeing Frankenstein whole body looming over the camera, we could have his dull eyes shown only.
