Must Have Done Something Right Update 2

My goal with the video is just to make people smile. I haven't shaded the girl in yet.
As of right now the first 40 seconds are fully animated. I still have to color the girl and do secondary shading. And also put in the backgrounds. Though, for backgrounds I plan on using After Effects to create some great motion graphics.
I included the first 20 seconds of the video in my animation reel from June.
"Sing to me"
"OOOOHHH"
"Hey baby, I can show you a reeeeeal good time if ya let me!"

I animate the mouths separately.

The video goes into a wild direction(which right now is only storyboarded, so not worth uploading).

Approximately the video is 10% done. The frame by frame animation takes the longest to do. Then color/touching up. Then shading.

Adding backgrounds and adding the motion graphics will be the final segment of production and I do not know how long it will take. I don't image it taking more than week since most of the effects involve hearts/flowers floating around.

Must Have Done Something Right

So I am still chipping away at the Tim Minchin video but a few youtube comments made me revisit an animation I put on hiatus in June. I decided to begin to work on it again. Since it is currently well ahead of the Tim Minchin video it will most likely be released before it. It also has less characters and is shorter.

Must Have Done Something Right is a music video (the song is by Relient K). It's about the "male" character expressing his feelings of love/happiness because of his new relationship. I said in a previous post it's about 1/4 done but I decided to redo some sections(mostly because the shots were uninteresting) so the completedness remains the same. With my newfound motion graphics skills I plan on making the backgrounds much more interesting and adding some effects that none of my animations before it have included. I'll post some stills(maybe) in the future when I get to those shots.
