For anybody that’s interested, I made a layout sheet of all the work that’s ahead of me. I broken my 28 minute film into various pieces to organize my animation.

28 minute film; broken into
13 Chapters (each lasting about 1 to 3 minutes); broken into
324 Sequences (each lasting about 5 to 20 seconds);
broken into A LOT OF THINGS TO DO.

Here’s how I organized them.

I broke it up into categories such as sketch and color for the ARTWORK files. I also broke it into categories for the ANIMATION files.

Also note the little tick boxes. I tick it off when it’s complete.  There is a total of 22 of these sheets (11 for Art, 11 for Animation)

I have concluded that there are 1620 tick boxes for each department. (I don’t count the last category. So 5 * 324 Sequences)

So like an RPG, I’ll get stronger every time I tick a box! Except instead of fighting monsters, I’m drawing and coloring.
I’ll start including the tickbox countdown in the blog.
