Clean up test

Working on clean up techniques. Going to throw down some color to see how much labor is involved. So far the clean up went pretty fast. Then again this is some of the newest animation I've been doing which is much cleaner that the earlier stuff I was doing because I had no clue what I was going for at all.

Coming to the end of the road!

Pretty soon I'll be presenting my project in hopes of approval. In the process of working through some of the last shots to touch before it gets down to the wire. adding some finishing touched to the bkg art etc... I need to get on this power point asap as well.

more Progress on Scene 35

ROUGH ANIMATION Scene 35

Getting down to the wire, working at getting these scenes knocked out. Starting to get into a flow. I've got a couple more scenes to animate, which one is particulary tricky because all three characters are in the shot at the same time. Yeah I know that was probably a stupid move.

Scene progression

Calling this scene for right now. There are drawings things I could polish a bit more, however I'm doing my best to balance speed, efficiency, and animation. I have a lot of scenes to animate still, and I need to see it working as a whole before I get to noodling.





Going to start working on the scene right before it, to see how it syncs up.

More animation on scene 11

Shot almost there. Need to do some fine tuning where the characters need to settle into poses. There are some extra blinks in there as well that need adressing. This scene is about to get put away in short order.

Current progress on Scene 11

Current progress on Scene 11

working on breaking up the timing so the characters interact properly. Major Keys are establish and breakdowns are getting there. Pretty soon starting working out the rest of the kinks. The more animation I do the more I realize that every moment doesn't require the charcter to move in totality.

Scene Progress

Currently working on scene 11,
Re-did the key poses to make the timing feel a bit less mechanical and have some delay between the characters.

Scene 28 Done for now.

Working on locking down scene 28 It's time to move on to another scene to see how everything is working together instead of obsessing over one scene.

GIF Animation

Before I start animating, I try to do something that isn't significant to the scene I'm working on to loosen up a bit. So I do some really rough animation stuff. I'm about done tieing down my shot before moving to the next, so here is a little animated gif for the fun of it...

Animation Update

More progress on scene 28, tieing down some frames and tightening up motion.

Animation update

Animation blocking. Committed to knocking out the animation for this project!!!

current gantt chart

Planning out the next few months. Hopefully I'll be drawing faster than what I anticipate, but better to pad than not.

moer Gif fery.

Animation sequence where he is escaping the dad, running to a house and jumping on the door to pull it open. just the first part though.

animated giffyness

Working on some poses for when the boyfriend gets snatched through the door in a cartoon fashion!

Faux family photos

Some concepts for the faux family photo montage sequence.

New .Gif

Was animating a take, did a practice to test the pliability of the fur and snout. Think the shout may end up being a bit more rigid so he isnt too floppy overall.

Scene Thumbnails.

Re-working this scene. Going through and doing better thumbnails of the action.
