Animating depth with 2D objects
Hi,
I’m building a storyboard for our latest animation and I’d like to have the camera move from the head of the table (where our character is sitting) to the foot of the table to reveal the family sitting either side (4 of them, 2 each side) eating.
Now, the best way I can think is to tell the illustrator to draw the table from the angle I’ll be placing the camera and then just zoom the camera on the character and slowly pull out.
I have a feeling this isn’t going to work tho, as without true 3D, how do I place the family members either side making it look 3D with a 2D table?

Hi,
No characters will be 2D too. Just want to make look 3D by animating the camera move from the character (close up face).
Don’t know how to use any 3D software and don’t own any.

Great. So you think it’s doable and I’ll look good?
Thinking of asking the illustrator to build the whole table and characters as one image and then provide a file with all the elements so I can edit the individual elements as I see fit – but the angle will remain in perspective as its been designed as one image with that particular camera move in mind.
Then just zoom into head of table character and zoom out.

I’m happy with ‘highly stylised’ 🙂
Just checking I’m going about it in the best way.
