All of the keyframes for all 79 shots have been finished! Even though I didn't get enough time to start inbetweening, it's still such a relief to finally reach this milestone.
That being said, inbetweening will start next week, and backgrounds will be drawn sometime later in production after inbetweening, so keep a lookout for that!
Here are the rest of the completed sequences (again, no sound, and also some of the drawings look slightly different from the storyboards but that is all intentional):
So yeah! Pretty exciting news!
To be honest, I don't know how many shots I'll be able to complete each week when I start inbetweening. They'll have to be kept rough if I want to finish it by the end of the fall quarter (which is December 7). It's taken me 5 weeks to just only keyframe the entire short and I only have 6 weeks to inbetween (which I feel like is a lot more work!)
Aaaaaaa we will see how it goes. I don't want to stress out too much about this short because its sole purpose is to find out what my animation workflow looks like and what my capabilities are. One lesson I definitely learned is to not make a 4 minute short. (I can't promise that though haha.)
It's all an experiment and I'm still having fun and I appreciate all of those who are joining me on this ride!
Thanks for reading and see you next week.
