Week 2

Week 2 is designated as the Production Planning Week. During this time, tasks are prioritized in a specific sequence, necessary assets for the project are identified, and the tools and programs to be utilized are established. This process aims to ensure a clear project workflow throughout its duration.

Map of Brooklyn Bridge Park:

The two raindrop characters of 'Pula' will venture to 3 distinct locations in the Brooklyn Bridge Park, namely Main Street, Pier 1 and Pier 3. Each of these settings are unique in terms of their assets and create opportunity for a decent montage of activities for the characters to do throughout the span of the film.

An asset list will be attributed to each of these locations in this section in order to discern what items need to be modelled for all of the relevant scenes. These lists will follow a series of reference images of the locations they fill.
