Back after a bit of a hiatus...

Things have been busy, but I'm back experimenting, merging some different things together for a short film I'm working on.

Here's a little thing trying to decide on camera movements for a shot of a Computer desktop. For whatever's sake I decided to punish myself and make every single visual element you see here from scratch in AS. Don't know if it's clear enough on YouTube to see, but the entire screen and each icon is handcrafted. Some icons are alt-world versions of existing programs, some just made up by me. Some cleverly named. Some not so much.

But I'm not even sure how much the visible desktop will actually even appear in the final version. (I also noticed after export that my weather widget has "Thursday" twice. :oops: )



And then this clip is just a re-hash of my character doing lip-sync tests (which were already posted,) but pulled into the new background environment I built. Camera testing and such.



Not sure why the side wall suddenly pops darker during the quick movement, but probably won't have that kind of camera work in the final either. I just like building my little rooms to have some directorial options :wink:

Again in this clip there are no jpg imports or texture sources. All components created in AS.

Woah, yeah that wall suddenly pops into a totally different color. Otherwise the clip looks good.

The first one moves so fast I had to really try to see the icons because nothing's better than clever alternate names. That said, I want to know where I can get version 11.5 of Anime Studio! You lucky dog you!

the sudden shift in wall color and the way things get darker when he sharpens his expression gives off the impression that he's begrudgingly deducing an event that severely displeases him. Like...zoom, darkness..."We'll see about that..."
