Are Shorter Swords Better (Behind the Scenes)
Added 2025-09-07 15:00:11 +0000 UTCThis is supplementary for the animated piece that's uploaded onto Youtube!
(Also hi Tip Jar tier! Welcome - this one's a freebie!)
This was the major animatic that I wanted to focus on last month... that is, until the files stopped working.
The first two photos were before the mishap and gives a general idea of how the storyboards transition to the animatic. Thumbnail sketches are very good for getting across timing, transitions and whatever is inbetween! Can't stress it enough.
The next 2 previews were the salvaging part:
Past Jerry had the hindsight to export a full WIP with all the base timings so Present Jerry could go over it with cleaner lines that are better for fill bucketing. Thanke lordy.
It looked like Beryl had no neck, so I gave him one :P He's the blue doge. Reynard's design did receive some minor touch ups too, but overall stayed the same!
After the final export was uploaded to the Youtubees, I pressed 'Backup project' at least 3 times in the animatic software, the 3rd for extra luck. Storyboard Pro's native backup method should grief me less now...
(Thank you for your patience, this one is a beefer)

(Animating is a very flattering word, this is more like power point presentation slides ๐)
