You heard right, yesterday I shot the first shot of Rhonda, the establishing shot of the bar. It's four seconds long and more or less includes 9 moving characters (or parts of them). I'm really happy with how the lighting turned out, and I know that this shoot is going to look really beautiful. Due to the gels dimming the lights a bit, the lamps have to be quite a bit closer to the characters, meaning they are getting more heat than usual (and my little animating space is hotter for me the animator too, making it a tad miserable). Oh well, it's a short shoot. And the first shot is always the hardest to accomplish, once you've jumped that hurdle, the rest is easy (as easy as clay animating can be, of course).
