Character Brainstorming

I’m working on a roughly minute long animated short, scripted by the witty, talented, and all around man of action: Jim Lujan.

I’ve put the animatic together and the timing seems to be just right. Now I’m in the process of nailing the final character designs. I think the customer (at the top) is more or less locked down. The clerk (below) is still not quite there yet. Once I have this character developed, I can then begin “rigging” both characters in Flash.

Rigging involves drawing the characters in their constituent body parts. Each piece will be a separate object (or symbol) within the design. I’m excited about animating once again.

    Wow very awesome, I enjoy a good animation. I wish I had the patience to put together an animated short.

Tell me what you think!
