As a means to get back into animation, and make the animation part of it all less of a headache, I've been trying to take the planning part of it more seriously. While I have been doing forms of storyboards for previous animations (animatics, really), I never took the full time to properly sketch and plan out scenes and sequences.

So here's my first "professional" take at making a storyboard for an original animation featuring the characters Jammie and Jilla first seen in the 'Friends Forever' animation I made a few years back (Seen here ---> Friends Forever (Flash w/ sound) )
I don't fully intend to turn this storyboard into a completed animation, but if I ever feel like it, I'm already one step ahead. :V

And side note: It definitely helps to have character reference sheets to make sure you don't go "off model" as you're redrawing them over and over.

I appreciate the enthusiasm, but you don't have to ask because there's no moment I'm gonna say "yes". :U

The lesson of this: never bother anyone that's sunbathing.

This really is a good way to get serious about animation. Get everything you need together first. It makes the process go so much easier.

That or be sure to hear a helmet when playing anything with Jilla. :Y

And yeah, I used to think that some of this pre-production stuff ate up more time than it was worth doing, but really, things like storyboards actually saves time during the primary production part.

There's a reason why they have these strategies in place. Although they're extremely time consuming, they're there to make the job a lot easier.
