ANIMATION PROCESS
Animating Paati from Artham Anartham
Artham Anartham is a personal project which started as my student film at IDC. There are quite a few characters in the film, but particularly 2 main characters. The grandmother is one of the protagonists. Animation process here was quite extensive and old school (even though done digitally using TVPaint).
Roughs, Cleanups, Paint & manually painting in shadows.
The finished animation looked like this with background and dialogue.
TVPaint screen grab
I added a additional lighting with the help of Laigter (a freeware) to enhance the mood and add more gradients. So, the final visual looks something like this...
