FOR TEAM OLD LADY: Colouring Shot 93, 94 & 96

For the last few days, I've been colouring shots 93 & 96. Both shots contained all three characters' from the film so I separated them to save time.
Pictured: Shots 93 & 96
I coloured shot 94 before but forgot to post it. Emma (the director) created the photograph square pictures and I skewed them individually onto the photo-strip, it only lasted a few frames before Edith's hand flips it so it wasn't that much work.

FOR TEAM OLD LADY: SHOT 96 [LINED]

The lined version of shot 96, where every character in the film is walking! Here's the rough version of the shot: http://whey-an.blogspot.co.uk/2015/04/for-team-old-lady-shot-96-rough.html where they're all together. 

I've split up the 3 characters in different files so I wouldn't have to erase things (when characters overlap) and also so the files can be sent to different colourists and not just one.
Also, I've put the characters' walk cycles on a loop. So, instead of moving the characters in flash (see rough version link above^) we can colour the characters and then move them in AE or premier (and repeat the walk cycle).




Edith's actions were a little more difficult to figure out. Whilst the couple don't do anything else besides walking, Edith has actions before and after her walk cycle.
According to the original time (see rough version link^), Edith walks nine steps. Again, it would cost too much time to move in flash and then colour in photoshop. So instead I've split the files into 3 - the first action where she stares at them; the walk cycle (on a loop) ; the last action where she reaches for her bag.

FOR TEAM OLD LADY: SHOT 22 [LINED]

Emma (the director) added more time at the end so Edith's head movement isn't so swift, this shot is now 110 frames.

FOR TEAM OLD LADY: SHOT 93 [LINED]

Inbetweened and lined Shot 93, Edith took the most time to do because she has the most movement and I had to figure out the physics of her hair and the bag's strap.
Inbetweened pass

Cleaned and erased overlapping lines, also added buttons and her flower

FOR TEAM VELOETOILE: SHOT 66 Version 04 [FINAL]

Realised I forgot to post this a while back, it's already been rendered but I'm just placing the playblast here as proof!

FOR TEAM OLD LADY: SHOT 79 [LINED]

Because I'd already animated (and lined) shot 81, this was quite quick to do because I just reused the frames - just like the process of shot 17 that I did for Team Colourless in the previous post.

FOR TEAM COLOURLESS: SHOT 17 [KEYED]

The keyed version of Shot 17, I've inbetweened the lady already so only Bianca needs to be inbetweened. In the original animatic, she wasn't this far away from the bench so I had to have her step back a few steps to sit back down which added more time. To save time, I reused a lot of Bianca's poses from Shot 15 - so unlike my other shots, which usually involves a messy stickman drawing to figure out the action, I roughed this shot out as I went along.

FOR TEAM COLOURLESS: SHOT 15 [KEYED]

The green box represents the camera that will move along with her, so everything outside the green box is irrelevant. Here is the shot with the chart for the inbetweeners:

without the charts
The biggest issue after I roughed it was that I had to animate with Bianca's proportions and make sure the character design was correct. Also, making sure that Bianca and the lady are the same height (which I referenced from the height chart that Sara made).

FOR TEAM OLD LADY: SHOT 94 [LINED]


Edith turns the photo-strip around so I added rough pictures of the front (in blue), makes it less confusing.
I don't know what the photo-strip is supposed to look like so I've can't draw a proper one in.

FOR TEAM OLD LADY: SHOT 08 [LINED]

I had a bit of trouble with her hair, just trying to think about how bouncy it should or shouldn't be... It was quite bouncy before but I decided to keep it subtle.

Rough of shot 08 can be seen here: http://whey-an.blogspot.co.uk/2015/03/for-team-old-lady-shots-06-08-roughs.html

FOR TEAM OLD LADY: SHOT 25 [LINED]



Lined and inbetweened, the bus is a symbol thats been animated with a motion tween. I wasn't sure if the glass was transparent or not so I animated her when the bus passes anyway, just in case.

FOR TEAM OLD LADY: SHOT 95 [LINED]

Properly lined and, also, inbetweened. I took out the action of Fred letting go of the curtain because I incorporated that into shot 92 already.

The rough version is here: http://whey-an.blogspot.co.uk/2015/03/for-team-old-lady-shot-95-rough.html
