Initial Animatic and feedback

After creating my initial storyboard, I need to create an animatic from that storyboard to ensure I know how long my short film is going to be, but also how it flows and fits together. Below is my animatic:

 

After creating my animatic I presented it to my teacher who told me the he likes it. He thought the script and plot where good just needed a little work to improve. However, he told me that I need to add a shot before we see the protagonist on the bus to set the scene; so the audience is aware that we have moved from outside to inside the bus. He also feels that I should intercut some stock footage of the film "1984" and feet marching, when the protagonist is walking down the road and at the same point at which he is speaking about the government.

We decided that I should take my short film into a very postmodern and dystopian area. I was unsure of how to end the film but as I have decided to take it into a postmodern and dystopian realm I think that I should finish the film with a nocking at the door and then the screen goes black and then the audience hear the door being broken down and loud voice enter, screams of pain and punches can be heard by the audience. Therefore this leaves it up to the audience to decide what happens to the protagonist.

From here I also to create a shooting schedule so I know what I need to do and when.
