What's this then?
Here are some shots of how we did the animation. Storyboarding, posing, printing, cutting, more cutting, even more cutting, sequencing, shooting, reshooting, screaming and lots of takeaways. If you're wondering - why did we do it the 'hard way' and not just do it all in AE? Well the answer is simply, because we can : ) and it's more rewarding. Hope you enjoy watching it as we did creating it.
