Development
When I started to composit my first scene into After Effects I realised that there are some colouring issues, stupidly I didn’t consider that due to the skin colour being so light I may of not been able to notice that when I was colouring I was going over the lines. And as my backgrounds are predominantly dark, and much darker than the characters colour scheme, the areas I had gone over stood out like a sore thumb. In order to resolve this I reopened Paint Tool Sai and put in a dark background so that I could go over each frame and erase the mistakes. A tedious but necessary task. I’ve also redrawn a few of the scenes that were from the animatic as I needed to work on the form of my character and the inbetweens.
Strengths
Strengths this week have been mainly going over and checking parts of my animation and animatic that perhaps need some more fine tuning, as well as learning from the colour issue that when I continue colouring I will make sure to have a darker background on to make sure I stay within the lines.
Areas for Development
Over Christmas I plan on completely finishing and rendering my animation with backgrounds, After Effects, sound design, credits and a title.
