2D workshop and Group Tutorials
In the morning session we had Dan Wilson for our third and final week which had no exercises for after effects this time. He showed us some of his work in his previous years and his final year project, with ways how he had accomplished this in after effects and answered some our questions like good software to use like TV paint for animating in 3’s when our making your character run and Cartoon Saloon is a great place to work at.
Group Tutorial talk with Aodhan
For this week I had designed two character sheets for my characters which is the boy and the father, updating the last time from the pre production presentation. I also created a sound list for the ambient (background) sounds and the speaking roles that would be included between the characters. Aodhan made some points on the character designs for the boy it’s poses, each side shown, extra details added in, the fingers, shoulder lines, back of head hair, strips from pyjamas and neck. The father is exactly the same with, arms being to long, make the canvas bigger, the hat at the back, being flat and basic, clear neck and collar and arms by their sides with no direct poses.
My goal this week was to look more at the character design sheets to aid me in the process of the designing sheets and help me to look how to draw men and what techniques I could learn from it to make an improvement to what I have done. Afterwards continue with collecting sounds the discord channel with Sarah on our main animatic becoming my main task this week and the next.
