Animating the dealership shot was a back and forth between designer Kirksey and me. I laid the initial composition framing down, and he roughed out a design. I roughed out an initial animation pass based on our concept, and he finished the design.
In retrospect, I think I complicated the cherry tree shot by breaking each limb onto a different layer. The effect helped give life to the character struggling against the slingshot rope, but I think I could’ve reduced the number of poses to keep it
The penny farthing shot and the Tahoe shot were what I struggled with the most, and in retrospect I see plenty of mistakes and ways I could’ve accomplished the same effect with more cleanliness.
