Interview with SachaDo you know what an animatic is? If you don`t know, let Sacha, from the Peach team tell you! In this interview started by Campbell Barton, Sacha tells us what an animatic is, and how they are managing the animatics for the Peach Movie.

Besides that, he shows how to build an animatic, from the storyboard images, with the video sequencer. Here is the video:

And this is the original post, from the Peach blog. There you will find a link to download the video in ogg format.

    @humble: yeah well, we're not copying *everything* they publish. Otherwise we could rename ourselves peach.blender.org ;-)

    Animatic I love learning new words and terms… but mostly new ways to solve problems without having to jump from one DCC tool to another and back again.

    Sorry to say, but what Sacha showed in this interview was not an animatic at all.
    Creating a timing for a movie by editing storyboard frames is called Storyreel !

    Animatics

    In animation and special effects work, the storyboarding stage may be followed by simplified mock-ups called "animatics" to give a better idea of how the scene will look and feel with motion and timing. At its simplest, an animatic is a series of still images edited together and displayed in sequence. More commonly, a rough dialogue and/or rough sound track is added to the sequence of still images (usually taken from a storyboard) to test whether the sound and images are working effectively together.

    Well… I really want those features (E extend, Y split) to the sequencer. Scaling would be nice too.

    I love watching these teasers that document the making of Peach. Quite informative.

    I didn't know we can make animatics in Blender. Is this a new feature or did it always exist?
