This first test took a good deal of planning. I keyed out the movement timing and used guide circles to get the proportions and trajectory right.
For these other two tests I used a more straight-ahead animation approach. I animated frame by frame to achieve a more fluid movement.
This last test shows the opening title sequence. As I said before, the film will start out in thumbnail drawings and in this test I'm going as far as to even show the outline of the frame. The camera trucks in, immersing the audience in the animation process.
