Our Superstar Boutique team at @powerhouseanim is back, with a NEW short for Team Sonic! I supervised the designs and boards, but I'm most proud of pre-pro's color design on this short. So moody. Go team!

The point is to show off, right?

The last two posts have shared research sources, and guess what? So will this one.

I first had to investigate what a portfolio is, how it functions, what needs to be in there, and how to make it presentable in the best way possible to any potential producers.

I covered all that in the last two posts. Now we’re getting to the point again, circling back around to the mention of my project at the moment in the first of this series of posts.

The point of a portfolio is to show off your abilities to people who are looking to hire you, and therefore you need things in the portfolio that do just that.

In a portfolio you need to have things like a walk cycle, someone handling heavy objects to show your sense of weight, a scene with acting and dialogue to show that you can do those things, and an action scene to show you can do that too. (Chang, 2022)

In this case, the NieR scene will demonstrate my ability to act through animation, which is one of those very integral things you must show you’re capable of. It’s a subtle emotional scene, so it will capture that part of the acting spectrum.

I should mention, then, that this is the latest thing that I’ve made during a period of (hopefully) increased improvement. The other pieces, a walk cycle, one with heavy objects, and an action scene either exist and are outdated, or haven’t been tried at all yet. So, this acting piece is the first of many things that have to be made to create a powerful and effective portfolio on the actual content side of things.

It’s a very competitive space, portfolio application and such. Everyone’s trying to find work, and you have to be extremely proficient in what you specialize in, in order to stand out, and in order for people to want to bring you on board. So, in this case, that space is the ‘wider media environment’ and this project is relevant within it because it’s another piece of another portfolio of another animator who’s trying to stand out and do the best they can. You have to show that you have knowledge of the tools and the workflow, you have to understand and take direction and feedback well, and you have to be responsible for creating a high quality of work. (“Powerhouse animation studios - 2D series compositor,” n.d.)

This project’s purpose is to allow me to both develop my animation skills and to be able to showcase them to potential producers by way of the production of a vertical slice specifically for those purposes. The piece produced will only be one part of my portfolio, and eventually it will be replaced by more professional efforts (Chang, 2022). Other parts will be needed, but I cannot produce them all at the same time and maintain the level of quality I want to achieve, although that level is only a goal and may not be attainable at my level of experience. Another goal of mine, as is the same as everyone else's in relation to their portfolios, is to reach a level of quality that demonstrates my capabilities clearly.

Hopefully I’ll be able to achieve what I set out to, and produce a piece that furthers and showcases my ability.

I really liked Seraphim's character and thought his design was really interesting but what's with the random streak of gold in his hair and around his eyes?

For Sonic fans, highly recommend checking out this thread where in-house director Kellan Stover breaks down who did what on the Prologue. It’s a big task to undertake, but it’s a really great gesture to showcase all the talent that goes into this kind of work.
