Collaboration: VFX Star Wars Skits
Using the featured tutorials I created these visual effects of the Stormtrooper's gun shots and the two lightsabers glowing. VFX done by Paris and animation done by Polly.

Collaboration: LOTR Skits Lighting
For the first skit I only needed a directional light.

Collaboration: Final Lord of the Rings Skits
Recently been struggling a bit with my skits, however they are now complete but it took a while. Instead of having a walk cycle it was agreed that a shuffle would be better, but the shuffle done in the animatic video didn't express the character's exhaustion so I filmed a new one below, (I used Rhia as a Frodo reference and Laura as Gimli reference and myself (partly) as Gandalf).
Close ups of facial expressions which can't be seen that well in skits.
But then I saw these two animations and I liked how they did movement, however theirs is more lively so I tried combining their style of movement with my reference video and got my skit - so the glide stays and I like it.
Camera wise I took inspiration from Bill Plympton's 25 Ways To Quit Smoking, I liked the one camera shot that showed everything and everything that happened in the skit performed for the camera rather than the camera trying to capture everything with various shots.
