I have made some improvements upon the last animatic. Namely, I adjusted some of the timing and improved the animation of shots 1,2,3, and 5. I think with the timing changes and improved animation, the story is more clear. I will be adding animation (beyond the plain blocking) for the rest of the shots as well. Also, I changed some of the cameras for these shots slightly as well. Please comment if you have any more suggestions.
I am worried that the pacing of the beginning is a little funny. The dog builds up excitement, and then by shot 4, it looks like he is just lying there. He is supposed to be panting, and I believe with actual animation (coming soon) I will make this more clear. However, I'm wondering if the shot before that (from the dog's point of view where he looks up at the cabinet) is slowing down the pace too much? I believe sound effects will improve this (panting/whining...). But, to see, I rendered a version with and without this third shot. Perhaps without the shot, the pace is better? Again, comments would be great!

yeah at shot 4, it does look like he is just sitting there, not doing anything. I can see the back muscle moving, wondering if you can somehow show the tongue from that view, that will make it a lot more obvious, i think.
