Scene8 Shot40 to Scene8 Shot45
Added 2021-01-07 10:04:39 +0000 UTCAnd a happy new year to you all!
Here's some shots I've been inking and cleaning up. The backgrounds are done and the characters have yet to be coloured and shaded so they're just flat right now, but it should give you some idea of what's going on.
What we usually do at this point is I'll discuss with Maki and we'll go over points like:
- Does the character need a shadow from 0:00 - 0:06 to "anchor" her to the background?
- Does the transition from 0:06 - 0:07 work or does her pose change too quickly (if so, I'll animate a closeup of her going through the door to smooth over the sudden change)
Things like that. So even though the whole film is "done" in animatic form, we're always adding little 1-2 second shots here and there. Which all add up and can change a 10 minute film into a 13 or 15 minute one!
I'll post up the backgrounds for these shots next time, with layers so you can see how they fit together. It may look at first glance like these are typical "character on top of background" shots but they were actually a bit tricky, as she is moving from in front to behind certain bits like the glass, the door, etc.
Well, cheerio for now!

Always interesting to see the small detail work that goes into things. I'd say a shadow outside the machine would be a good addition given there is one inside. If not a reflection. I'd suggest a nervous look inside toward the door as well given she looks to be wary of pursuers. (I haven't been keeping up with the project. =S) At 0.75 speed it's pretty smooth, so a few additional frames wouldn't hurt. Cheers.

2021-01-08 00:21:52 +0000 UTCI'd say that a shadow would improve the shot yes, though not critical. I do think her pose changes too quickly, though, and could use a closeup or something. My 2 rubles.. :)
