Hey,

There is this thing that has been bugging me a lot and has really prevented me from doing some real FxF animation. It bugs me to the point where I wake up at nights to see if it makes sense.

When you do FxF animations, do you draw all the different actions(overlapping actions) including eyes blinking,hand gestures,mouth movements e.t.c in one layer(Doesn't this mean erasing alot?) or do you separate some actions in other layers? If you do separate some actions/drawing, it would be nice if someone can give me an example of the main actions you separate.
And, I'm not talking about distant drawings.

Thanks

yeah if you're talking about "limited" FxF animation, separating elements is the way to go. There's no need to draw the head dozens of times if it's not moving. Just separate the eyes and mouth onto their own layers, then you can animate them independently of the head.

I replied to your message on YouTube btw Wink
