Last night I put together this layout of the action for LIFE.EXE - a little short film project I have been working on, on the side.
The purpose of the layout animation is to get an idea of where the camera will be pointing so you can see which areas of your scene need to be more detailed, and which areas are not going to be in the animation at all and thus, don't need any work on them.
The layout also show bad angles which show flaws in your design. A few of the angles in this layout show a hole in the noes of our Potato hero, as well as some strange camera angles and unnecessary cuts.
The video has no animation of the character so may be hard to follow. When you hear the keyboard crashing sound, the character would be beating the keyboard against his head. The render is also not fully light and doesn't have the walls and some floor included, this was to speed up render time. I may update it later when the higher quality version has finished rendering.
