Update
Getting ahead with some of the imagery was the best thing to do the last week. Within my schedule, I wanted all the scenes done by the 29th of March but soon saw this as impossible because of the number of shots within each 'cycle'. So I have devised a new schedule that is strictly animation to keep goal orientated and on track with my progress. Other than this unrealistic deadline, the rest of the schedule going smoothly. I have auditioned and cast a voice actor for Mazikki and will post the response and audition shortly this week. In short, he can perform the melancholy style and low tones well, as well as having talents in speaking in a range of accents. This leaves lots of doors open in terms of accent for Mazikki.
Above are two more shots, the below image missing Mazikki for the moment. The shot design and inking is most time consuming while painting is a quicker task, therefore lining all shots is a good start. Animation will commence when all shots are completed.
For the rest of this week my task is simple. I am too complete at least three more shots within the isolation 'cycle'. There are only nine shots in this section with limited animations- mostly panning and establishing shots.
Weekly Achievements:
- To complete three more shots (at least lined)
- To put up voice actor profile. (New tab)
- To put up animation schedule.
Tara,
ReplyDeleteAnimation test looking lovely. Fan looked good to me. If anything the character in bed is the last point your eyes go to. The contrast of the lines lines is stronger on other features. Maybe just needs a little more definition in his face - or a twitching whisker?
Looks like everything is going okay, aside from your timescale concerns. Again, make sure your backgrounds are not more detailed than the character. Well done. Look forward to seeing more.
