Human reaction to the elephant

This is the shot where the human sees the elephant burst through the wall, Lawrence asked for a simple design and he wanted the human to tilt his head to the side and then blink, the next shot involved the screaming as the human runs away, I redrew the mouth with keyframes in order to allow to keep changing when the human was screaming, I think this was a nice effect as when played through it looked quite nice.

Scream Perspective Shot Version 3

After Lawrence had seen the 2nd version he suggested that instead of having the arms not visible when the hands were shaking, he would have preferred to have seen them bending outwards so I drew the two arms and then I attempted to convert them to symbols in order to add a tween, I wanted to rotate the arms along with the movement of the hands however this didn't work as the arms came out of place and the hands were not connected to them at points.

Scream Perspective shot version 2

This is the 2nd version of the perspective shot of the scream, I added some detail to the eyes and an in-between before the hands are lifted up.

Scream Perspective shot

In this shot the man is looking down at the mouse and then begins to scream when he sees him this leads up to the next angle of the scream.

Scream 2 versions 1 and 2

This is the first version of the 2nd scream animation, I used the timings from the animatic as well as a screen shot as a guide to animate the character, I converted the head to a symbol and added a tween to rotate it back and forth. I also made sure that I drew the mouth and then redrew a new one on blank keyframes therefore every frame for the mouth was a keyframes and it kept changing which ended with a nice effect like the last scream in the humans reaction to the elephant animation. Lawrence mentioned to me that he would add the hands later on in After Effects, therefore there were no hand animated in this clip.

An edited version of the scream, I had to make the man look down instead of across the room, as he is supposed to be screaming at the mouse in this scene.

Mouse looking up

This is the clip of the mouse looking up, this is the result after mapping out the movement of the mouse as he lifts his head up, after seeing the human, this will be sent on to Lawrence to use in after effects for the final film.

Mouse looking up mapping

This is the next part of animation that i need to do, this is the mouse looking up at the human, i have worked on mapping out the mouses movement before i carry on and this is what i ended up with. A little more work is needed for this to look  better however.
