What is Time?

What is Time is an explainer video that talks about time and how it could be just an illusion. I work with another person on this project, so half of the credit goes to the other induvial. Now I did about half of the illustration and about half of the motion my partner did the
another half.

Process

Moodboard

Before starting on mood boards and sketching, we had to develop a script to guide us on the sketch and storyboard stages. We went through a few drafts before getting the one we both agreed on, and my partner decided to be the one to speak in the video. Then based on the script we made, we chose to make a mood board to get some ideas of what style we could go for in our explainer video.

Rough Storyboards

Then after the script, we made a rough storyboard on what the video could look like. Using the script, we made our sketches that helped to try to enforce the audio.

Visual style

After the storyboard, we decided to go and make a visual style sheet that would show what the illustration would look like. During this time, we made some changes to the storyboard because we felt that some scenes weren’t as effective as others.

Detail storyboard

After getting our style down, we made our detailed storyboard. We wanted to go as detailed as possible, so we made a lot of frames for this part, but because we thought of everything during this stage when it came to the moving part of it, it became much easier to do.
