The PIGMENT package is crucial for presenting how you’re going to approach colour scheme, as well as lighting, mood, tone and everything else present in the previous two packages.

The ANIMATIC SLIDE is exactly what it says. No fancy stuff here. Just your storyboard animated into a slide show - cut together with timings and pace. They can include basic sound effects, dialogue recordings and a scratch soundtrack based on a reference of your choosing.

Oftentimes, there’s nothing quite like making the film before you make the film. It’s a safe and cost effective way of evaluating whether or not your film moves as it should. Do your transitions work? Shots cut together? You crossed the line of action? Forget about it, It’ll be grand.

As per the examples, the SLIDE package consists of black and white line drawings. It’s not necessarily pretty, but it’s very functional.

The ANIMATIC FLOW is a more developed version of the SLIDE, incorporating more fluid movement, complex camera moves and performances from characters - such as mouth movement, facial expressions and effects.

Light and shade feature when necessary and a lot of clients make sure to get this right before going all out on a commercial or film sequence. Remember, not everyone can pre-visualise the way you can in your lovely brain. This is one sure way to show the least imaginative and nervous clients you have, that everything is going to work out just fine.

And if they don’t like your idea? Better to find out before shooting the piece!
