Part1 Task Overview
Based on my internship in an animation company in China, when I put in some 3D works within my showreel, they asked me to show some 2D hand drawing ability, so I drew some sketches of characters and scenes according to their company’s ongoing animation projects.
Script
It tells the story of a little girl full of magical fantasy about the world because of her blurred vision. She lives in a goldfish shop. She dreams of swimming in the water with a giant goldfish. She also meets a goldfish with “strange eyes”. In the process of fantasy, the little girl always makes some strange moves. In order to make her eyesight normal, her parents give her glasses. Glasses have become a hindrance for the little girl to imagine beautiful pictures. She and her parents have been rubbing about wearing glasses time and again. Until an accident happened, her eyes were injured and she had to undergo eye surgery. After the operation, the little girl’s vision was normal, but the illusion in her eyes disappeared… The little girl stubbornly fled and fought.
Finally, through the way of wearing glasses back, the dreamy picture is found again.

Part3 Conclusion
Although I spent a lot of time in this week, looking up information, understanding the script, conceiving the feeling of the script and imagining the picture. I didn’t draw many sketches, but thanks to this task, I also improved my ability of hand drawing. In fact, I think sometimes a good story is very important. At the same time, the sketch is also very important. It can bring a lot of inspiration and lay the foundation for shot splitting.
