His Work And Nothing More | Jekyll and Hyde animatic

*concerned friend hovering*
working on this animatic makes this too relatable

------
Music:
"His Work And Nothing More" from Jekyll and Hyde Original Concept Recording of 1994

------
Notes:
- *now* I remember what I used to write in these notes! (the struggles)
- did you know if you turn Clip Studio EX to camera mode, cam renders much faster, life is so much better now
- I'm trying to solidify the perspective of each shot hence the many perspective grids
- at the beginning I tried doing some glass fracturing inserts like a comic of other characters in the chorus bit but it was kinda tacky so scrapped that
- some of the flow is weird like when the dad gets up from the couch and walks away, part of me wants it for the effect like repeating an impactful action, but part of me thinks its unnecessary
- I might also need to clarify that the dad is going around the corner at the stairs area
- I wasn't sure what to do with the shadow part but I wanted to draw shadows lol
- this was 6 days? let's be generous and call that 50-60 hours
- ALSO doing wider screen format is pretty freeing, there's so much space!
- this might be the last one in a while, things get busy starting tomorrow

any critique is very welcome!

This is Also, Jekyll in the first scene is just. He’s so down :( and looks very Hyde-y at points? Esp, like, 0:34
Anyway!!!! Just!!!! Fantastic job
Is that just a cabinet at the end, with the cane and bloody stuff? And was the corpse Jekyll was backing away from in horror at 3:25 the same dude Hyde killed in the last animatic, or?
ALSO good job making Jekyll and Hyde The Same Guy But Different! AND his cut hand from the broken glass!!!!

Incredible animatic, sealbatross! :D
I would absolutely love to see your work on 'Streak of Madness '.
It's one of my favorite tracks in the show, alongside this one
