“Gather ‘round, for an epic tale…”
The storyteller
Those are the words that welcome you to our new video and sets the stage for the entire video
The Odyssey by Homer was the inspiration for this story narrative.
The epic poem deserved no less than an epic video.
Project Breakdown
As all great stories begin with an idea.
The Odyssey had to change and summarize into a 40 seconds video.
So, we broke down the story into its most basic elements.
Odysseus left his wife Penelope to fight in the trojan war.
It took him 10 years to return home, in this time Odyssis won the war by inventing the trojan horse.
This is the Hear\See script we developed. The Hear and See breakdown is the very first stage of the production process.
The storyboard
The next step after the Hear\See is the starboard - in this stage we transfer the text description into initial frames that determine the composition and flow through out the video
From text to look
Here are some examples to the development process - on the left part is the hear/see script and as we move to the right we can see the storyboard frame, preview from the 3D software and final frame as it will be in the final video
Figuring out the look of this scene was more challenging
