Miming in Prague

After finally finalising our story decisions and synopsis, we developed the script. With just a few notes added on the bottom the lecturers are all happy with it! We plan to start the script breakdown by the end of the week...but before we do, we need to know what our set is going to look like.


That's where this post comes in...


For the first time since we started his project we both agree on something! The setting for the animation! 


We both had a European city in our minds, with a small river running through the centre of something like a plaza or town square, and a bridge going over the small river.


So we are going to do some research into these type of cities and towns, including; Prague, Perpignan, Venice, Paris, Moscow and Copenhagen, gathering a lot of reference images.


Here are some images of town squares in Prague, these are the sort of building fronts we both imagined, the pale painted brick with rusty red accents.


I think we will take a lot of reference from these images as the buildings are exactly what we pictured together.

The old style of the buildings is something that we want to capture in our animation, especially on the old timer's side of the river or square.
