I began working on some rough storyboards at the beginning of the project. Then the client told me that they'd be doing the storyboards on their end, which disappointed me a bit, as I like to do everything.
But then I thought, hey, at least they're doing something for their cut of the money. Besides, I'm having trouble coming up with good angles for some of the shots. I thought it'd be nice to get some input from a 'real artist.'
But it turns out that the storyboard artist has 'flaked out,' whatever that means. So, instead of nice professionally drawn storyboards, I got a PowerPoint-type presentation with a mixture of renders I'd already done, and slides from our resident geologist.
And they were pretty terrible.
So now it turns out I'm doing the storyboards after all, which is what I wanted in the first place. Still, somehow I feel annoyed by the whole thing.
Admittedly, annoyed is my natural state.

I can see how that would be annoying. There is something about getting someones elses project planor storyboard in power point (or worse excel) that says they want to look like they were trying but actually didn't want to go to any trouble. Especially when they put more effort into fades between slides than the storyboard.
I didn't even get fades!
