I drew a quick storyboard for my idea about a week ago, and turned the storyboard into an animatic.
I wasn't too happy with the timing and I couldn't get a very good feel for the movement, or "smoothness" so I tried again, also incorporating some of my animation tests.
I was a lot happier with this, though there a still a few kinks. I would like it to be more seamless, like, as the eye is transforming Riley is also walking, so there is no strange stillness in the walk cycle. The animation is also still pretty jagged, but I will be able to fix this when I use my lightbox. I will redraw the key frames then do the in-betweens. But before any of this, I have to make sure the timing is perfect, then work on the sound. I was thinking a bold 1, 2, 1, 2 kind of beat. I could perhaps make this music in garageband. Never used the program before, hopefully I can create the sound I'm imagining.
