WIP!

Figured out how to rotoscope >:)

Original clip is from "Jumpin' Jive," by Cab Calloway and featuring the Nicolas Brothers!

#the other dancer is gonna be momo #i had a brain blast about how all the characters dance #and fauna and momo are basically the nicolas brothers when you put them in a room together #Dante could be the gene kelly in that scenario but yeah #i'm having so much fun #this is 51 frames tho i'm exhausted fgaks #follychromatic #nicolas brothers #the nicolas brothers #cab calloway #dancing #rotoscope #animation #2d animation #rough animation #fauna fernleaf #wip #tw flashing #flashing #just in case #jumpin jive

FINAL UPDATE TO THE MAIN 6'S REFS!

Fauna, Dante, and Momo are the ones who changed the least, I'd say, while Rose changed the most.

But yeah! The guys!

ANOTHER STORYBOARD: DONE

Script / Outline: COMPLETE! Scenes storyboarded: 3/12 (Technically less but I split the scenes when they started getting long in my notes) Scenes animated: 0/12 Songs written: 0/2 OSTs written: 0/???

Overall progress: very little tbh bro we JUST started.

But hey! I am officially further than I was 2 years ago! And, my motivation is still intact! Gonna keep pushing forward!

I'm probably not going to update after EVERY scene is boarded, just the important ones or when I finish the boarding process entirely and move on to digitizing the boards (which should not take long), then FINALLY to the animation itself!

It's 4 AM and I'm going to bed but PROGRESS IS PROGRESS!

#follychromatic #dimond speaks #in case you're wondering why script and outline are the same point: i'm boarding as I go #just like the writers of SU #i have important dialogue written ahead of time and the rest is made up along the way #add some revisions as I digitize the boards and then we're going straight to animating! #cuts a lot of time with just as much creativity and less burnout lol #and in a rubberhose format like this i think that will add to the visual comedy rather than just scripting #cuz thats what i did the first 7 or 8 drafts of this thing and it always prioritized drama over comedy #i'm trying to fix that this time around lol #and so far I think i'm succeeding! #idk im excited lol #this is happening it's actually happening holy shit #fc update

[follychromatic]

I never uploaded this??

anyway this is YEARS old at this point but it always jumpscares me whenever I go into my FC folder, so now I have to inflict you all with its existence.

and yes- Sandy is STILL going to be animated like Kermit the Frog.

Day 17 - Cozy

I think they'd make special hats for animals in an anthro world. Ears get cold really fast, y'know? Tail covers exist, too, but they're seen more as an accessory that a convenience (despite that not really being true), so here, neither of them have one.

I need to stop myself before I ramble about how all these animals would stay warm in the winter lol
