wow thatll keep my inspiration bank full for a long time to come!
i have so many questions!...but i wont bother you with them...but just one though if you dont mind?how did you do the clean up and colour??surely it cant all be flash?i love that style.
incredible!
I appreciate the comments guys, Im not very confident about this....
Timbo: Im proud of you too man :)
L Rossi: Hopefully I can push myself further this year
Sophian: I can't wait to do more :)
Tori: Cheers, hopefully I'll find work soon.
Frankie: Animation wise, rough, clean, colour is all flash, with diesplacement maps, blurs etc added in after fx :) If you dont ask questions here, where you gonna ask dude? Don't worry about bothering me, if it helps you, Im happy to be bothered.
savage work dude, if you ever get sick of animation you should try editing!
c'est parfait Garçon !!!
cheers bro, i hope I dont make u regret that offer!
well to start with i wanted to know a bit more about your process, how u animate in flash (is it drawn frame by frame or do u use a combination of symbols etc) and more about ur clean up process (do u paint using the paint bucket or by the shape tool or with brushes). main reason why i ask is coz haven't cleaned any thing up (i hate scanning) and i have avoided using flash because i really dislike using symbols and tweens as when i do it always feels stiff and limited!
also about ur animatics/story boards, what is the general rule about using grey tones?
caricature, do you have any recommendations of books or blogs that i should look at?
gesture drawing, can i see some more of urs please??
phew! feels good to get that off my chest.
if u prefer u can email me bk, frankieswan@googlemail.com
showed this to steve and others here at LAS, everyone loved it man.
looking great! I will have a thorough look later
Mick P: Thanks man, editing? really?
Paul: Merci beaucoup Garçon
Oliver: Yeah, i know its a bit long :) hope your good.
Frankie S: Sorry for the delay on the response, believe it or not I've been think about your question for a bit.
Its mostly drawn frame by frame. The card pack, sticker and bottle are symbols. The liquid inside the bottle was animated frame by frame which is also a symbol, and the hand attached to the bottle is also a symbol. In a couple of scenes I used a symbol for his hair.
We would clean up in flash as well. I was fortunate to have a cintiq for a couple scenes which makes it really easy. if you look closely they're not super clean anyway, but thats what we wanted.
We used a the paint bucket and brush tool. We also had to colour the the lines ( hence no outline except when its in the body and those are coloured). I know what you mean about scanning, it feels like a massive waste of time, however, I think you loose something if you only animate/ draw digitally. Its like only learning how to drive an automatic car. I want to do some more paper animation, I think it requires more discipline and attentivness. Get to know both.
For grey tones, i think in this instance I used it to help identify shapes better and for things that were closer to the camera. Im not sure I used it in the best way though. Thinking about it now, its probably a good idea to study a film, pause on the shots you like and try to replicate it using only 3 values (black, white grey).
As for gesture drawing, I haven't done much lately, but I'm visiting LAS to see Karl on friday (18th feb) so I'll bring in my sketchbook.
Hi...influences...a lot in drawings, comics, cinema, literature...José Muñoz, Alberto Breccia, Horacio Altuna, Welles, Buñuel, Leonardo Favio, etc..Have a nice day.
wow massive thanks a lot man that explanation it really helps! in fact i am animating into flash right now. doing frame by frame at the mo to see if i can maintain the same fluidity as paper result are varying.
im sure if you speak to steve u can do some paper animation in the studio, there is a couple of free desks so shouldn't be a problem. plus that way i can absorb more of your knowledge!
thanks also for letting me look through your sketch book, was a privilege to see and i learned a lot from studying your line.
u pop into the studio more often!
woow
Always great to see the 'making of' others work and their process. Really inspiring stuff
