animation content, storyboarding

Planning out briefly what my animation will contain. I did some research into what dare devils/stunts I could include in my title sequence. I also used this as a basic reference for when I was going to draw my illustrations, too make sure I paint all the ingredients I need for my animation.

Using the 'Man on Wire' layout, I thought about just having the man walking across it with catchy phrases, and then 'TOP 10..' falling on to the wire. For a title sequence, this seems a bit too still, it almost seems a bit more like an ident. 

I thought about using the 'Man on Wire' set, but also having more going on, including more daredevils to make it seem more like a title sequence (small intro in the programme). They each flowed into each other.


Using type at the start, scraping the 'Man on Wire' layout, just using the different daredevils, technically only one frame but just zooming in... ? 

I thought about using a lot of shapes, start off with a diamond shape that opens, block colour that the bike drives into, block white, grey ramp, then block building. Using the 'Man on Wire' set again to finish. Blocky building I think would look a bit plain.

 Some of the illustrative animations I had found when researching, used mainly linear illustrations. I did like these, thought about doing something quite simple with one line. The line could be the wire?

Incorporating Oliver Jeffers style illustrations into my animation? Very simple (too simple), storyboard, but including informative text as a sort of attraction to the programme 

Lots of type, simple drawings, still seems not really like a title sequence, doesn't explore much.
I like how they have accidents at the end, pain would probably attract viewers, (don't need to attract though, because it isn't an ident).


Combine all daredevils together into one set? More like a title sequence.
Storyboards that involved just one character and it's stunt seemed a bit too interview-like which suggested it was an ident. Having a series of characters on the screen is a bit more lively, and explores in further detail the contents of the programme, TOP 10 DAREDEVILS.


Including all characters into one set, also, set could be very illustrative and detailed? 

Basic layout, content and order in which they will appear on the screen.
