Sequence 1 is complete!

It took a lot longer than expected. Work combined with martial arts meant a lotta' late nights. Most of the trouble was due to those infernal gray markers! If you saw The Dark Knight, imagine Morgan Freeman sitting in front of the Bat-Sonar machine. That's what my computer room looked like. The result, however, looks a lot better and is probably a lot more helpful to whoever is in charge of the digital sets and staging. But yeah, it's done and ready for a turnover session if necessary. If Connie wants, we can turn this baby into a (reeeeally primitive) story reel.

The next "A" sequence to draw out (according to the sequence breakdown) is sequence 6. Again, the point of the "ABC" prioritizing is from the Prepare to Board! book. Theoretically, after all the "A" sequences are done, we have a bare-bones but completed film in case time suddenly runs out. With all the "B" sequences, you have a "good" completed film. And with all the "C" sequences, you have the film you set out to do in the first place. I'm still trying to work my way up to 30 "marker-less" panels a day. I'm on 7 with the grey markers...*sigh*.
