Animatic

An animatic is similar to a rough draft of an animation. We imported the pictures from the graphic novel we drew for English class into Flash and animated them with movements we would like to make in our final animation. By creating an animatic first, we were able to see which actions would work out better than others.

Making the animatic allowed me to test out different movements and audio to look at what worked best. Making the animation afterwards was easier once I knew the general plan.
