The Money Shot

Hi folks,

This week I finished the most challenging shot of Ladies Knight: Shot 3-19, in which Doofus tap-dances up a tree as it falls into a river, then is joined by a quartet of tap-dancing frogs. This shot took me an estimated 50 hours to animate, and it's only 8 seconds long. Such is the life of an animator. Amazingly, I am still on schedule.



There are, of course, things I wish I could fix about this shot -- for example, the frogs sort of blend in with the bright scenery -- but it looks good enough, and fulfills its purpose, and I'd better get to other shots if I want to finish this film on time.

Just a screenshot for now -- I'll upload a video when I have time for an export...
