New Animation Company

::: ILLUSION INTERACTIVE :::
A new Animation Firm, who basically does Original Animated Contents. We have our own concepts; We develop them, We write the scripts, We create the characters and all other stuff, which is required while doing Animation. We follow our own process for Animation. The process we follow is something like:
  • First we see what kind of script & concept we have.
  • Then we see cartoon films and decide what kind of animation we are looking for.
  • Sometimes it happens that we make our own animation look.
  • As per the script, the characters are sketched.
  • The look and all is decided, the profile is made, 3/4 is made, front,back and all are made simultaneously.
  • Then we decide the kind of animation i.e. jerky, smooth, 2D animation etc.
  • As we decide motion, the Animation is started.
  • The animation window size is 720 X 576 (A video resolution) @ 25 fps.
  • We use Macromedia Flash MX as our major source for animation.
  • We sketch the characters and then we trace them out in flash.
  • Then IB artist (In Betweener) do the IB where necessary.
  • At the same time, Background artist do the BG as needed; while doing animation.
  • The post production done by us, but without special effect.
  • The process goes, and ultimately the final animation is in our hand.

Till now we have done around 5 mins of animation in 25 days Team of 2. . Sound recording is been getting ready at the same time.
