Todays I am posting some back grounds and some key frames from a early scene in my film. Below we have a scene where Frank is passionately smelling his flowers. I am currently cleaning up this scene, Going through the 3rd pass of animation for it. It’s a LONG scene and it’s taking me quite some time. Happy to say I’am almost done with it and can not wait to move on!!

Many people have mentioned FRANK’s stiffness. I have many left to right/right to left/ frontal framing. I know this, probably because I really like Wes Andersons work, and early motion picture work. Story telling in this way though sometimes called stiff and rigid can be very effective and when done right will be visually appealing. Early into the conception of this film I had shots like this in mind. I hope they work as well as I want them to, but that is still to be determined. Animation and and story telling is hard, in case I haven’t mentioned
