Nekomancer
ABOUT THE PROJECT:
Nekomancer, is a 2D short film produced at SCAD Atlanta, as part of the animation curriculum. The project is ssigned to a group of 10 students of different specialties within the animation program at SCAD, and they have to produce a short film from scratch using their skills. Students are not allowed to use online resources or ask for help to any other students that are not part of their team. The srudents need to find a role within their team, even when there are multiple people of the same specialization.
The team were mainly 2D character animators, a a couple concept designers. I was mostly specialized as a 3D charcater aniamtor at the time, which limited the responsibilities I could have in a 2D production. My main role on this film was compositor. Some of my tasks were to compile and update animatics throughout production, light add effects and sound in adobe after effects. Credit sequence and final edit. However, I was able to work also on some parts of the pre production assets.
