Probably not going to go all the way through animation. I only have two quarters left. I will, however, edit it, tighten it up, and build an animatic (flipbook of the storyboards with transitions, pans, truck shots, etc.)
Hopefully it'll help me get a storyboarding job. Or in the case of this economy, I'll at least be able to decorate my cardboard box with pretty pictures.
Yeah, I cut out a lot of unnecessary characters. I'm going to cut about a 3rd more. Our "hero" escapes twice.
Although I like my fire escape ladder drawings best, they're kind of unnecessary.
It's hard to tell, too, that the slacker leaves his house with a Bic lighter.
I can edit the story a little by
a. having him discover the Dew earlier in the cold drinks section
b. still trapping him up in the ceiling lights, but,
c. he sees the lighter left at the cash register, and uses it as a weapon of opportunity.
Other little problems: probably couldn't light a mop head quickly enough. If it was a standard broom? Definitely.
I could so see that at the theater as a Mt Dew commercial prior to a George Romero movie. Or even TV on Halloween before the living dead marathon. You have a great concept there. Now if there was a Dodge of the dead... (only a thought) Really, though, fantastic work.

Thanks for the comments.
That would be the dream! Practically speaking, I can get away with "student work" or satire using licensed images. Unfortunately, on average, companies don't like ads/idea submissions from off the street (they can get sued if you can claim they copied your idea somehow). I'm going to need to look it up and see.
Will be getting a final review this quarter in the next few hours. I expect the teacher will cut about 20-25 unnecessary shots. I'll post the revisions as they come.
Changed the story up a bit I see. I liked this a lot.
You lose.
Wow, what an ending. Nice story board and I cannot wait to see the finished product. So far, I think this is going great.

OK what the hell? It won't let me view the image... I'm getting so sick and tired of this connection.
oh it'll get you somewhere, it'll get you bait
Ditto. In fact I'd love to see it like that.

This is a class project? Are you studying art or to be in advertisement? Either way, good show!
