April Work

The beginning of April was finishing up textures for me, and then moving onto facial animation. These gifs are in-order, unlike how I had actually worked on the scenes during the process.

I've added in both a facial and a body view for each scene! In some cases, I had to exclude or include different viewpoints. The face cam is a bit silly to watch, but it shows off the animation better.

All mocap was done by Johnny (clean-up and capture) and Ethan (Saint George).
