Once I had finished getting all of my shots animated and keyframed, I was then reccomended to get my shots with their base colour on the characters finished so that the backgrounds can be at their full opacity in the final edit, and so that my short film looks as close to finished as possible. Initially I was planning on adding additional frames to the shots that consist of only keyframes, but decided that it would take too much time given the deadline is coming up.
So I decided to test out colouring the first three shots of my short film, which I then sent to Aodhan, which he approved of and told me to go ahead with. Below is the colour test for shots 1 to 3, with 3 having its intended visual gag added where I added more rendered shading on Screech, a glow on the crown and a fade in background.
