Process

Due to the tight timeline, most of the shots had to be roughed and cleaned within a day. This was one of the longer shots which took around 2 days with the help of live action reference.

This video is a compilation of some of the lip sync animation I worked on. Lip sync was done with a mix of handdrawn and rigged animation, depending on the angle of the head.

I animated hair strands for the close up shots.

For this shot, the client wanted the laugh to be fast and the word “tasty” to be dragged out. Since the total video couldn’t go over 15 seconds, I did a few versions and compromised on timing that was quick but still readable.
