Cinematic Production - Character Animation 10

Week 13 - Day 1

SIT REP! I drew a different version for shot 03 to make the spirit creature remain sleeping but not static. Tea also told me that the jellyfish isn't so much swimming as it is just floating so yay! I've only watched a couple of jellyfish videos as opposed to a plethora of them. XD In the end, I made the jellyfish "yawn" instead. Here's a rough version of it.


I tried to export it as a gif from flash but it came out real ugleh so I went back to exporting it as a video and converting it into a gif via photoshop. Yay for doing things the long way but at least this way works and I actually know how to do it. Working harder as opposed to smarter...-_____-

As you can see, I didn't really bother doing anything to the top of the jellyfish because the creature is going to be blocking it anyway. I also tried to animate the paws moving a little bit on top of the jellyfish but it looked like it was going a weird jittery dance so I took it back out. It's possible my brush size is probably too big...

Now, to play with the timing of shot 05...If all goes well I can just go straight into clean up with shot 03 by the end of today and then move on to shot 05. I reckon I can probably finish the entire animation for my shots by the end of this week or middle of next week then I can move on and help Tea with clean ups for the main spirit creature. I'll need to update the schedule again but I'll leave that for Friday.

We're chugging along!
