Final FINAL Animatic!

Although I had finished my animatic, I have had a few more suggestions made about it which I feel I should amend. These were:

1. "The music is looped and rather repetitive. Because there is no dialogue, music that changes along with the characters mood is needed":

The point made is a fair point and I agree. However, I mentioned previously that I will create the final edit of my music after I have filmed, so that I know exactly when the music will need to change pitch/speed etc. Through past experiences I know that that storyboards tend to change significantly - so I do not want to create a perfect musical score, only to have to change it after I have filmed. 

2. "Adding some Foley may help (the pencil sound effect/sound of sighing)"

The idea of Foley for most films is a great thing. However, I still want my film to be in the style of a silent movie - so I will not be able to use it. I am hoping my actors animated acting will show an over-emphasis of their emotions, so that the film will still be understood by the audience. 

3. "A transition between the sketch and the memory would be good in order to separate out what is a sketch and what is filmed (they can be difficult to distinguish as the whole of the animatic is sketched)"

The point made about transitions is one thing I will change. Although it will not be difficult to distinguish the sketched shot and the real shot during my actual filmed film, I can see that it is very difficult to tell in the animatic. Therefore, I have added cross-dissolves so that the two storyboard shots side-by-side do not just seem like the same shot. Below is my final animatic, having made the latter changes:
