Animation Stroyboard

Finally got round to drawing up the storyboard for the final animation. I've had the text portion below written out for a couple of weeks now. In any case here is the final draft I have created.

Storyboard

Setting

A lab room full of equipment, there are tables with scrap littered about and a main desk with blueprints on them. There is also a blackboard with complicated maths on it. The room starts out very dark with no windows. The room is later illuminated by industrial lights from above which are clap activated. 

Intro

• Dark scene, door opens and some light floods in.
• Character walks in (Camera follows the characters legs as he walks).
• Character Stops. Camera switches to his hands.
• He claps and the lights above switch on.
•  Camera stays on his hands as he drums his fingers together thinking.

Set-Up

• Scene cuts to character smoothing out his blueprints with his hands on a desk. 
• Title of blueprint is easily visible "Doomsday Machine".
• Camera slowly pans back up to show characters face.
• Character grins menacingly and then laughs hysterically (classic evil laugh and pose)

Mid-Shots

• Shot of character putting on his goggles to work.
• Sound effects highlight most of the action as the character works on his machine.
• Camera shows scrap paper pinned to wall. "Greatest Inventor wins yet another award". 
• The picture is clearly of someone else. The picture has a red big cross on it.
• Couple shots showing character working on machine. - Using wrench - half underneath machine. etc.

Ending

• Machine is finished, character pushes up his goggles.
• Before pressing the button he is clearly excited, gesturing with his hands (fingers wriggling) and then slowly he presses the button on the machine.
• Machine makes odd noises, sputters, powers up and finally DING. Toast pops out.
• Shot of characters face - shocked non expression.
• Head falls and he droops all disappointed.

Post-Credits Bonus

• Character sitting in a chair munching on toast.
