Jenny / Ian UB Anim - Progress 5

Added 2022-01-14 22:59:18 +0000 UTC

Hey, not a real flashy update today. I spent the past few hours fighting with aseprite, and doing multiple mockups to figure out what the right resolution to work at would be. I'm probably going to go with 220 high, the center one. 144 on the right is a common resolution you might have seen artists like mabit work at. Old consoles were often 240ish, but there's no real standard for 'low res pixel animations'.

Ideally i'd go with the left one, since the smaller we get, the more abstracted ian gets? And he's pretty important in the animation! But i cant' decide, i guess. For comparison, the Charlie/Jenny animation i did not too long ago was 217 high, which is on par with the center one's 220. Maybe that's the sweet spot?

I guess tl;dr : I don't know how to proceed. Ideally it'd be the one on the far left, because it affords me the most space to differentiate ian's many limbs, and give the most space to jenny's face for her weirdly subtle acting, but it would make this take even longer.

And to be honest, i would like to get onto chapter 2 lol.

So... yeah i dunno. Left looks the best but i feel i need to compromise and do the middle, to keep this long ass animation on track.

What are your thoughts?
