Overview
Frameharbor explores how animation teams keep creative feedback connected to the exact shot and version being discussed. A cinematic viewer gives the artwork priority, with a sequence timeline and storyboard wall providing wider story context. The concept extends into delivery review so the selected version and outstanding notes remain visible through the final handoff.
Original animation review interface concepts. Records, imagery and technical values are illustrative.
Challenge
Animation feedback often arrives as screenshots, time references and separate messages. A note can be clear in isolation but ambiguous once a shot is recut or a new render replaces the version originally reviewed.
- Attach feedback to a specific frame and version.
- Keep shot revisions connected to the wider sequence.
- Make unresolved review notes visible before delivery.
Solution
A frame viewer anchors the interface, with a bottom shot strip for context. Sequence editing uses a multitrack timeline, story planning uses a contact sheet and delivery review compares versions beside a checklist.
- Inspect a shot with positioned annotations and contextual review threads.
- Arrange shot thumbnails on a sequence timeline and inspect the selected clip.
- Review scene groupings through an expansive storyboard contact sheet.
- Compare render versions alongside delivery notes and a preparation checklist.
