"Hello Little Girl" (Into The Woods) Storyboarded Animatic

I’ve been meaning to get back into animation for a while but with the ever-constant changes that were/still are happening in my life I was constantly putting it off until a few things were settled.

During that time, I had been on an “Into the Woods” kick for a while and thought about doing an animatic of the Wolfs song. I really loved the idea of playing around with the Wolfs external and internal dialogues he has within this song. On the surface he might seem whimsical and light-hearted when convincing Red to stray from the path to her grandma's house, but underneath that big friendly smile he has more ravenous and foreboding intentions. Sometimes trying hard to hold himself back from unleashing his inner rage and animalistic nature upon his prey. His character model reflects that being a mixer between Ratigan from "The Great Mouse Detective" and the Death Wolf in "Puss in Boots: The Last Wish".

With that said, I hope you all enjoy this as much as I had making it.
