11. change of plans again



Previously I intended to cheat the hybrid section by using some editing programs to replicate a drawn effect (example: “Filter>artistic>Cartoon”)
this would place a free hand drawn effect around any lines found (much like the effect used in TellTails the Walking Dead game).



But this little cheat would take away the whole point of it being a hybrid animation. for hybrid something needs to be traditionally drawn,, if is't just cheated with a computer it’s still digital animation,,


So after a quick chat it with the idea of rendering the character (using stage 3, no coloured outlined version), after the render was complete (120 frames at 24 frames per second) I used Animation paper  and placed it over the screen and started to trace the renders staring at frame 1 and tracing ever 2nd frame (1,3,5,7,9..you get the idea).from there I now had a traditionally drawn animation that should run at 12 frames per second to give it the extra hand drawn feel.
