Week 11 - Character sheets and animations

This week I continued working on the first animation. Its a big learning process for me as I only started to dabble with 2D animation last semester and I havent used the Procreate animation functions before. I believe it is going well despite being a time-consuming process. Each frame must be hand coloured with a specific tool to get the desired effect (see animation bible for details). Moreover, Procreate animation makes each layer a new frame so using layers for design and making sure everything is in the right place makes it a bit more difficult to get your head around. I've split the first animation into multiple documents to reduce the risk of losing/ damaging work and hopefully this will help to keep my layers clear and understandable.

I also made character sheets for various colour and design options within the animations whilst waiting for the main character designs from the 3D art lead. A few of these are shown below, full sheets can be found in the animations section of the blog.
