“MONSTERS UNIVERSITY” Progression Image 4 of 6: LAYOUT
Once the storyline for a sequence is completed, the scene is created in the computer. This frame shows the beginning phase known as Layout, in which a virtual camera is placed into a shot. The characters and set are “staged” or placed into positions that work visually within the chosen camera angle. Layout precedes character animation. Sets are simplified during this phase, but are seen fully built in the next stage of production.
