Was the only one working in the studio today. It felt kinda nice to be alone with my thoughts and I like to think it helped me to concentrate a little more but still would have rather had some animation buddies with me. Currently I feel like I am struggling to keep on schedule with this short due to the limited time I've had to work on it but I'm trying to remain optimistic that I'll get it done on top of my other projects (see my 3-Dimensional Worlds blog to see what I'm working on in that area). Got a few seconds cranked out today of pencil tests, only have about 5 more seconds to finish up which should be relatively easy from a motion standpoint. The hardest part is getting the acting right.
Also managed to do a little more to my background I posted last night and did a composite test to make sure it is working for my scene, which it does (good news!). It's nice how therapeutic it can be to just work on something that isn't animated sometimes even if it's apart of the same project. That's what I love about animation as there is ALWAYS something to do. Not sure I mentioned in in the last post but I'm going for a UPA style look for these backgrounds as I like the simplicity and funkiness of the shapes and colors but also the detail lines that go into them.
