Kinda thought this would be a good opportunity to show my work breakdown for projects like this. The first step is usually finding a look my client likes by giving them a few style frames to choose from ( #4 was the winner)

Clients usually give me a rough idea of what they want and things they like. I try to incorporate those into designs that also complement my personal taste (we decided on smol Evann and I& #39;m glad. That was my favorite)

Once we agree to a specific look, I move ahead to storyboarding/animatic (for this project from design to boards, it took a little over 1.5 weeks). For music videos boards, I take in ideas from the musician and add them to my interpretations of the lyrics

Once the boards are approved, it& #39;s time to animate

This one is animated by the lovely Julie Kim ( http://www.juliebkim.com/ )">https://www.juliebkim.com/">... and was inspired by a viewing of the Breakfast Club lol

Here& #39;s the last scene (25) with the camera. By this point, it& #39;s been another 2.5 weeks so a total of 4 weeks now. I send in-progress versions to my client to make sure we& #39;re on track.

Since I hired a few friends to help me meet my deadline, I made a spread sheet of our shot breakdown. Take a peak into the madness of my mind lol

Once animation is done, time for final comp! Here& #39;s where all the magic of color, effects and any final notes come in. This usually takes me a week because render time from After Effects is a draggg (did I mention I animate everything in Flash? lol)

By this point, the client is pretty happy and I send over the final renders/assets. I like to throw in a few fun stuff if I have time like trailers or promotional stills. Most importantly, I send in my invoice heh

Overall, this specific music video took about 5 weeks. I& #39;m very thankful for my friends @RenegadeTokki and @EviPineschi for helping me out. I& #39;m honestly pretty proud of what we made and hope this thread helps out any animators out there
