Scene 1 Rough


Scene 1 is final all roughed out and i am quite pleased with it and i think the majority of drawings have a constant flaw to them and keep there consistency. Not much that can be improved here really, now it's time to move onto the next scene and stick to my deadline.

Blinking


I know just from this small scene it my look like he's blinking far to much but i kind of like it, gives him more of his own personality, makes him come across more like a timid and shy person which i think goes great and is exactly what i wanted.

It Begins...



And so it begins the start of my animation, the beginning tests don't seem to be that bad i like it how this bit has turned, hopefully i can keep the consistency and proportions right too.

More character Designs



Here is another character design but this one i designed from another idea i was going to do, at the time i had changed my idea of my final outcome. My primary out come didn't change i was still going to animate to a selected piece of audio that comes out each month on the website '11secondclub', so all that was different was the month and that a new idea had to be come up with, but my principles stayed the same.

This month's audio (march) after hearing it i did come up with an idea of one man sitting alone in his cell (prisoner) acting out the dialogue from the audio, but the problem i discovered was that the character would be speaking the dialogue to calmly and there wouldn't be much movement throughout the scene and that's why after having some time to think about it i decided to go back to my original idea.

Storyboard Animatic



So here is the first drift of my scene, the images from my storyboard edited and placed together with the audio that I'll be animating to, as shown in this animatic.
Just a drift at the moment will come back to this or redo a better animatic showing a detailed background and move character development.

Practicing Facial Expressions 2 Attempt 2


Continuing with developing this character. I believe I'm beginning to get a feel for this character now and I'm liking the outcomes of my drawings now, still need some practice as you can tell not all of them look exactly the same which isn't good.
I have ticked the ones that i think keep a consistency to them.
