Facts of Life Part Two

Here is the first scene of my film so far. It's not complete. There will be a cat somewhere and I think I will refine the animation a bit more. Gonna start work on the next scene this week. As for this blog, I'm going to try to update at least once a week.

First Scene Part

This is the first fourteen seconds of the first scene of the film. This is how the film will look in its finished version, though the animation may be tweaked slightly.

New Test

This is a re-working of the previous test using Toon Boom instead of Moho. As this is a flash version, the textures are much clearer and sharper than the avi version. Now that I don't have to worry about tweening now, I think that the movement of the character is much better now.

EDIT: Looks like the video wasn't working. Fixed it now. The sound is slightly out of sync, but I may be able to fix that later.

New Version


I have decided to use a different program to produce my film. Rather than use Moho, I will now be using Toon Boom Studio 3. I have more experience using Toon Boom, so although I don't think I will be able to make the film faster, I do now feel more at ease doing the animation.

Fact of Life Animatic

This is the animatic for the first scene of my film 'How To Talk To Your Kids About Almost Anything'. I made this before Christmas as I wanted something that I could put the actors voices into in order to work out the best set of voices. Comments and Criticisms are welcome.

EDIT: Just a note. The file is quite large (11.6mb) so it may take a while to load.

Facts Of Life


Just finished building the first scene in Photoshop so I can export it into Moho. The hands are photographs of mine and my sister's hands, with a cutout effect put on them. I'm not too sure how well they will look in the finished product, so I'll have to wait and see.

More Sketchbook Stuff



More early stuff from when I was trying to create the characters for my film. The film is progressing smoothly so far. I worked out the lip sync for the first scene a few days ago. Now I need to build the characters up in Moho and I should be able to start animating in a week or so. I may put up the animatic for the first scene as soon as I get a chance.
