Learning to talk... Dialogue Animation!

These past two weeks we made our first foray into dialogue animation with Christian Kuntz teaching us.

Working with dialogue and lip sync is pretty challenging but I enjoyed it a lot. I got a lot of positive feedback on my final result and even though it was a struggle half the time I learned a lot. I think this kind of subtle acting, be it with or without dialogue, is more natural to me than action shots. (No need to slack off on the action, of course!) Another challenge was animating Sawyer, which I've been wanting to do ever since watching her in "Cats don't dance". Her construction is really tricky! Again, I learned a lot.

I hope to get back to this scene eventually and inbetween/clean it, but I have some personal projects on my list first.
