Moom Storyboards

I wanted to make sure that some of the lines of the song were focused on, so that it wasn't animation full of Moom prancing around.
Close ups of Moom's expression would help to show what he is feeling, and with the shot from the moon before that it should help to show why Moom is dancing, rather than it being out of context and random. I thought about making it a shot to zoom in to the moon to emphasise how Moom is spotting it, but I don't know if that would be necessary or not.

I wanted to include lots of grand sweeping gestures, almost as if Moom was serenading the moon itself, and to show how much he is getting into the idea of 'amore', so much so that it is distracting him from his job.

In this part of the board, Moom goes a bit wild, getting carried away with the oar and making even more exaggerated movements with  it.

That then leads to him not really paying attention and, in his excitement, capsizing the gondola. I feel like this should give me enough chances to experiment with his expressions, and animate a character so lost n their imagination that the lose sight of their surroundings. It should be fun to animate.
