Animation Gift for a friend || Completed animation
"Hello dear guests and welcome to the shadow carnival, I am your humble shadow jester here to entertain"
Hello hello everyone! This is Reaper and this is a birthday gift for my friend @shadowcarnivalen :3
Apologies if I did the quote wrong- but I thought it'd fit the introduction to this animation very well
For those who want to know about how I created this I normally start out with a concept idea which I've shown below
And after that I do a rough colored finished concept
And apply shading and lighting. With these settled I can get started on the cutting of the layers and rendering/coloring can begin
Since I already have everything planned I can just color pick off my concept result and use that as a guide
Once finished the cut file is exported as a psd and imported into live2d, Which is where the animation is done on a animation timeline
Each motion of what I want in the animation has to be animation with the parameters by hand then adjusted in the animation timeline to get the effect I want, but by the end you get a stunning overlay
I hope you all enjoyed it and liked it... I know I sure did especially making it... These kinds of overlays are some of the funnest animations I've made in a long time
And I plan to make more whether it be for my friends or myself
