124 stop mo A New Game animatics

Today we learned about the Zoom recording devices. We also asked my brother (a third year who knows about recording sound) about how to use the Zooms.
We learned that:
Voices should be between -10dB (-12 to -6dB) and all levels should be set to 0 if not used
To record dialogue, it is best to use a shotgun mic.
Wherever the mic is plugged in, make sure that channel is selected for recording
The phantom settings switch the power used between the Zoom and mic batteries (accessible in the menu by selecting the microphone icon and the phantom option)
SD cards need to be formatted before returning the Zooms (accessible in the menu by selecting the SD card icon and the format option). Formatting removes all recordings from the SD card.


We're planning on hiring one out for the weekend and recording dialogue, foley etc. for the animatic.

Speaking of animatics, today we did the roughs for the animatic. As with the treatment and screenplay; I did act 1, Chloe did act 2 and Marilyn did act 3.

Here's a poor quality render of what I did. Some shots are held for a long time because the characters are talking
