Poses...

Getting your character comps into a new pose is relatively easy. I start by dropping my comps onto the stage and size them according to the scenes specs.

I then take a look to see what parts of the characters need to be reposed and break those elements down and roughly position them into the desired pose in the storyboard.

Then I draw the revisions with the comps underneath as a guide. This ensures that the models will stay roughly to scale.

Then I clean up the rough line in Flash, making sure that the new clean line is consistent to the original comps clean line.

And last, I color and make each new element a symbol. Once the symbols are created I go in and add a shadow layer. Now my new poses are ready to be animated in the scene.
