Not the most amazing quality, but good enough.
A few things:
Timing is not perfect - the overall piece is 4:20 but can easily be 2:20 or less. I just need to cut the time of the camera moves and when Minnie is in the house alone before she sees the ticket.
So it's going to be shorter.
Towards the end When we see the guy's face - there's a moment of realization that he decides to stay for the dog and leave the ball and the ticket behind after he understands that Minnie came all the way with the ticket- it's just an extra shot after he sees Minnie.
That's really important.
Talking to Jack about the story, he mentioned something really really really important i didn't 100% realise before i did my Animatic. In the story, the dog suddenly sees the ticket and thinking how to bring it to his master, so it looks towards the door and thinks how to get out of the house. That's where the big change comes in - insted of making a really smart classic hero dog, the entire idea is to create a situation where Minnie sees the ball and happy to see (not even noticing that the ticket stuck to it behind) it as she would like to play again, From being sad, she all of a sudden happy and picks up the ball (not looking at the door lock) and goes to the yard to try and jump...from here it's the same story line until she gets to the airport and when she has the ball - her master don't notice that the ticket is stuck behind. He ignores as she's the last thing on his mind because he's about to miss his flight....but then he sees the ball and realize it's because of her that he can make it to his flight on time, but decides eventually that she's his best friend, so he stays.
I'm thinking which direction i want to take it. It's another suggestion for development. One thing i didn't think of when i looked again at my story was when Minnie looks at the door but it's locked - this shot is going to be cut off because the door can't be locked from the inside if the master left.
