I made this video earlier this year just as a test for this type of video. All the lighting, movement etc was all done in post, which was maybe not the smartest of my ideas lol, it took quite a while to add the lighting to every single character frame

Here's the "uncomped" version for comparison

Video is also up on Youtube, if you want to check it out there

Oh I'm talking about the actual character animation (movement) and not character models. The models for all the main characters I finished like years ago lol

Now I "just" have to animate the entire project, which is sitting at around 29 minutes long

Lol, perfect timing then XD

*I am always watching😶*

It's been nearly 2 years since I last did proper character animation, so it's a bit rough getting into again, but I'm happy with this quality so I'm hoping I can make the entire animation at this level

Now that was 7 seconds of 1 character down, that leaves just 29 more minutes to go 💀

And THIS is the entire rig shown all at once lol

Oh that, that's the nice, clean and readable version of it

This is the true horror of face rigging, with some bones hidden, as otherwise you wouldn't be able to see everything

Here's a version showcasing the rig, for the 1 person who might be interested in that

:)==

This is the original 1 week (mainly rigging) project I did, before spicing it up for my showreel exam

Yeah I think for the final rendered version it probably took about 8 hours to render lmao

Yeah I think I spent about 3-4 hours on it, once you account for lunch break and me figuring out what to do for the assignment. One of the perks of hand animating everything without reference for 6 years lol

Still gotta love animation, spend 4 hours of work for 9 seconds of video xD

This animation was originally made as just a quick 1 day animation assignment before I then spiced it up and polished it for my exam

Still pretty happy with how the original one looked considering I only spent a couple of hours on it
