Plan for light and sound

Right now, I'd say Barrett and I are about 50-60% complete with the project. Our plan is to complete it this fall break and turn it in Wednesday. We've decided to use photoshop and afterafects to create a limited amount of animation, using cut-outs of various photographs. Many are used as backgrounds to create scenes (much like a stage) and then have characters occupy the foreground and move between and about the spaces. After we complete the animations in afterafects, we will move the footage to final cut, place it over the soundscape, export it, and turn it in. Our story, right now, involves a duck moving about sets under the watchful eye of a witch-owl. Eventually the duck is eaten and sacrificed to a vagina-jellyfish-flower. The film then takes a much more experimental approach, moving about the landscapes and characters, removed from time, stuck in a sort of vortex of they hypothetical and the elemental.
