Updates

Not much in the way of ground-breaking updates- I'm just trucking right along. I feel like I'm going slightly slower than I should, so I'll be trying to speed that up. I'm one lip-sync away from getting a frame-by-frame shot animated, which means I'll have one more to frame-by-frame, and then the rest will be all puppet animation which should go a lot faster.

So that's me. How are you?

Background 1

One out of two background for my final. This is the more complex one and the other shouldn't take half as long. ...Hopefully..

Animatic!

That is all.

LipSync

Marie wishes more people w0re funny coats.

Walk cycle

Here's Marie flashin' a little leg. Hoorah.

Storyboards

Crappy, crappy storyboards.



I will excuse my own crappiness, however, because I'll be doing an animatic to work on the timing and stuff. So... it's not like I'm planning poorly. >_>;

Leonard Hautier

Finally. Apparently I don't need 2 model sheets but I've only got 2 characters in this short so I figured I might as well go for it. Leonard took long enough, but I'm pretty confident with his design.



I'm also going to go back to using black outlines for my characters. I really liked the way colored lines looked, but I hear it's a pain to frame-by-frame colored lines and somehow it never looks right when I vectorize the puppets. Le sigh.
