Based on feedback from my supervisor, I want to write about some of the issues that he found along with the good elements. In doing so, I hope that I can better understand the areas which need improvement. He really liked the timing on the slide part of the animation as well as the step back following the cracking of the ice. This was down to the emotion that the character was successfully conveying. It made it so the supervisor could tell what the character was thinking. In my mind this is strong as it highlights good animation. He hoped so some smaller details to be added. He mentioned about camera angles and how certain smaller movements that were in place really added to the piece. Some angles could have been improved on and I noticed that the framing needs to be slightly lower as the character has not been properly centered in the shot.
The supervisor talked about building anticipation as the cracks in the ice follow the character rather than just one ice cracking. He also said that the opening part of the animation needs to be clearer as it feels like the character is holding himself for no real reason. I decided that this week I would go back and fix some of those issues as well as continue with the animation process, hopefully getting the animation completed before going back and fixing the smaller details.
