…shots from The Prince of Egypt. The first one I did back in 1995 shortly after we got started coming up with visual ideas for the movie. As we were getting ready to start layout at some point the studio needed to see on paper how the movie could look like and how the drama of the story could be reflected on panels. This was one of the compositions I came up with trying to visualize the claustrophobic life in the construction site.. [the last shot] a dramatic scene by the shore as they are caught between the ocean and the troops chasing them, with an indicated camera move for what we used to call ‘workbook’, a part of the process between storyboard and actual layout in which we would refine the compositions, lighting and camera moves, both as individual shots as well as in continuity. -Marcos Mateu
