Fantastic Voyage: Animatic

Animatic with (temporary) sounds.
I'm still not sure if I want to have it in a really cartoony way or not, although I find the background music suiting the style. I guess in the end I will have to think about recording my own SFXs as I wasn't able to find exactly what I wanted.

Fantastic Voyage: General Style Research

Research for the style of this project. A little bit of sweetness and cheesiness, mixed with slimy crawling cell in the centre of the whole action!

1. Doomed: a biological cartoon

This animation inspired me in the first place. 

2. Peak Condition 

THE TOAST. 

3. FriendsWithYou Reel

This might be too much, though there are few really interesting designs which suit well with the vision I have in my head. 

3. Ragnarok - Porings

The sweetness of eukaryotic cells (?)

4. Various Influences

I guess it gives the general idea of what's in my head and what's my vision for this project.
Any othere suggestions and ideas, anyone? By the way, I found so many great short animations I cold spend the whole evening just watching them and having fun. The Internet is full of positive surprises sometimes! : D
