Well finally gettig around to finishing this simple 30 second piece. Its based on a joke and I shall be sorting out some better storyboards shorty. For the minute heres the few days work ive spent.
Heres the old storyboard, I have a better one to hand with a few differences to the story but no scanner at min.
The joke:
Basicaly it works on stereotyping the workmen on building sites as being dumb, A buil;der drops a brick over the side and it lands on one of his friends. His friend has lost an ear and before they can run off to hospital they need to find it amongst the rubble. When the builder has finally found his friends ear, he waves it about and asks his friend, "is this it??". To which the idiot replies, "Na, mine had a pencil behind it.!".
Its cheap I know, but when I chose it, I was fairly confident I could squeeze it into 30 secs, and get a high lip sync mark (which is what everyones aniamtions are being marked on, more so than the content or joke).

Im happy with the 1st scene (bricking up) and the rest are about halfway there. Its missing the last 2 scenes and a proper intro at the minute. But any advice on how im going about things, or arent, is desired ;) . Hoping to have this finished within 3-4 weeks, and to a high standard.
