Thats alright! Im pretty sure my own family doesnt really understand what I do lol
In general animators are only responsible for the characters performance and any props that need to move
Things like the lighting, design of the character, hair, clothing, set etc. are all done by other departments

Thank you! I’m really big on using reference. Locomotion can be so complicated and everyone moves so differently it’s hard to keep all of that information in my head, so studying reference for my shots is key. I also try to approach movements one step at a time.

Honestly the reference/planning part of animation is my favourite part! I feel like it’s where I get to make the most creative choices.

The story board artists do a great job letting us know generally what’s going on in the scene. The emotional state of the characters with a few poses. With that info the animators will bring their take on what the acting/action will be while staying true to what was laid out in the story boards

This is just a reference collection of smaller shots.
One thing to notice with video reference is that it’s just a road map. A lot of things can change as you dive deeper into the shot when it comes to performance.

This shot is a great example of collaborating with other animators to stitch together the best pieces of each animator’s performance.
Thank you to the amazingly talented Joy Liu, Annike Pienaar and Sophia Lee for helping me out with this one! 🙂

Here’s my reference for some of the shots I animated on KPop Demon Hunters.
This sequence of shots was particularly fun because it was a rare opportunity to explore Jinu’s goofy side 🙂

Another run of shots I animated here. Making sure each girl had their own personality in the way they move was really fun to explore.

These were the very first shots I animated with the girls on screen at once. It was a fun way to discover each of their personalities, design language and how they play off of one another.
