Ideas - Dialog Option exploration

Hey gang!

So I tried trimming up the grandma dialog and i think I ended up cutting a lot of the stuff that I liked... is roughly 10 sec, I putted together three more options that I really like and that are about the same length, I want something that scales up and has energy.

for 2 and 4 I have basically the same idea, the italic would be my take on the subtext

Idea
Guitar player wannabe and his dad broke his instrument, or a e-pro gamer and his dad broke his computer rig

make your mark (two phrases)

(what? - surprised)
Oh great …

(i can’t believe it - confused)
Oh that is just great now

(you don’t approve? - confused angry)
what did you always tell me … 

(really? - )
 AHHH?

(dream big - angrier)
Make your mark…

(follow dream - angrier)
 Make your mark…

(be different - angrier)
Don’t be one of the numbers

(don’t settle - angrier)
Make your mark!



I am better than that (two phrases)

(what? - surprised)
oh come on!…

(you - surprised)
If I call you up to tell ya

(would like for me to get any job?- surprised confused )
“hey dad i’m the newest assistant sub-vice president of pencil sharping
at some crappy little company”

(and you would be happy? - angry)
you’re telling me you’d think that was greeeeeaat??

(well i won’t! - serious)

I am better than that!

What do you guys think? I'm gonna be exploring the ideas for the rest of them (getting the idea, setting and situation is the most difficult thing...)

Two versions - Couples shot

Hey everyone!

I was wondering what you all thought about having her head turn in the shot or not when she says "nothings wrong". I know it was a note we were still deciding on in class, so here are two versions, one with the head turn and one without.

The first version was one suggestion from class where she turns away from him after "nothings wrong" rather than having her continue looking at him like my old version had, so maybe that fixed the note. The second version was the other suggestion where the head turn's completely out, which to me, made me feel like a little bit of her acting needed to change; which I only roughly did so far.

Let me know if you wanted to see my video reference or the old version again, and I can upload those too.

Version 1:

Pantomime Ideas - Cody

Hey guys! I decided for my new assignment to do a pantomime where a character tries to perform a task while affected by internal/external circumstances. I thought of a few ideas I might like to animate today, and I was wondering if any of them stand out to you guys or if there are any I should avoid:

- A mailman tries to deliver a letter into a mailbox in super heavy wind

- A man walks into a very small bathroom in the middle of a party and wrecks everything

- A man tries to carry his groceries from his car to his house, but the sidewalk is slippery with ice

- A badass cowboy tries to enter a saloon and intimidate the other men, but his hat is too big to fit through the door

- A vampire tries to open his front door, but he realizes he forgot his keys, turns into a bat, and flies through the dog door (I like this one, but it might be a little too Hotel Transylvania-ey?)

Thanks!

Cody's Gear Change Blocking

Hey everyone!

http://syncsketch.com/playground/6a295cbf45a949899aefa8037e20db42#45633

I blocked out my idea for this week's gear change assignment, and I'm debating with what to do for the ending. Right now, I have a sort of slapstick punch at the end, but I'm not a big fan of putting a button on the end of a shot for no reason. I'm considering taking it out and just ending with the subtle change in the guy's face. That way, it won't be as rushed, and will have a bit more of a serious tone. What do you guys think? Is it worth keeping in?

Thanks!
