Lighting and Render

Nothing crazy to note, just worked. This week I tweaked the movements added the lips etc. Did a little more touch up on the eyes. It's pretty funny, I thought the lips would be difficult but when you think about it we usually focus more on the eyes of our character or what they might be wearing, how they stand etc. The mouth is not high on the list.

On top of animation I also lit the scene and cleaned up the audio using Premieres audio editing. There are better software to use but I wasn't going to do anything fancy, just add crickets and clean the noise up in my recording. Overall I am happy with the way it turned out. The real question is how much do I want to continue tweaking/editing the animation? Usually, what stops an animator is deadlines, but when you do not have a deadline for the project, it's up to you to stop it. I might add a little girl model instead of the stand in but what I have here is wonderful.

I included the final shot compared to the first.
