Animatic, Progress

All the scenes have been laid out (bar one which will be done while animating) so they are ready for the animation team. I've added them to the live action shoot to produce a new animatic for editing, animation and music purposes. I've also done some work on the live action to remove strings, props, reflections of the camera and a rather embarrassing tripod leg.

I've still not decided on a title for the film. I also need to figure out a working title to place in the film itself without giving away the ending. Contrary to this animatic, I'm leaning towards 'Conflicting Ideas', with 'Stars of the Show' being the working title. I'm totally open to suggestions though! Also, I'm thinking about shortening up the first few shots, maybe taking one out, just to tighten up the pace. What do you think?

And while I'm asking questions - how important do you think it is that a short film has the title at the beginning? I don't think it's working here. I'd like to move it to the end, before the credits. Thoughts?
