I know, I know, it’s been pretty quiet ’round here of late. I haven’t had a whole lot to say, other than things are good, so I’ve just been quiet.
Things are starting to pick up at work, and they’re letting me write again. Well, ‘letting me’ is a misnomer, since they weren’t stopping me before, but right now I have actual script to write, and before it was all just planning stuff.
The scriptwriting process so far has been very fun and very collaborative, and I’m learning tons about what I can do, what I can’t do, and how to shut up and let the artists tell the story with their pictures. It’s a video game, cutscenes have to be short and snappy, and get the point across.
We had a really good day on Friday, once the script was written and the storyboard was roughed in, the Animation Director, Effects Guy and I wandering back and forth, scripts in hand, moving stuff around, taking out stuff that was extraneous, making changes.
At the end of the day the Animation Director came over and shook my hand. “Really good work this week,” he said. And I agreed. It was a really great day.
Whoops! Late for the gym! Gotta run!
