Earlier I posted my character designs for the character of Rose. She was the female lead in the unproduced animated feature My Peoples. At the time actress Ashley Judd was the voice, and I had fun doing some test animation.
Here Rose is sitting in front of a mirror as she says her lines. I don't remember exactly what the dialogue was, but she is talking to her aunt (off stage), about not being able to go to an event..."and look at my hair!"
This was animated without live action reference. Maybe somebody can turn these key drawings into a pencil test. The timing for each drawing should be maintained.
Every single member of "The Nine" [well, maybe not Ward] would be impressed with the degree of nuance you got into those eyes and lips. Just the right amount of emphasis on that bottom eyelid and bottom lip without overdoing it. Very clever treatment of the hair ---that could easily have been a disaster.
ReplyDeleteSincere question: do you think you could bring that much to this scene if you tried doing it over in 2026?
Beautiful! I feel like I've met people who look like that, the expressions are very genuine!
