EVE - Behind the Scenes

I've had several people ask me how my process works. While this isn't a complete answer, because that would be mind numbingly boring, it's a little glimpse behind the scenes.

Seth this is very helpful, thanks a lot bro. Curious to know what software and technique(s) do you use? from seeing these, I think you do a combination of traditional and cutout, am I right?

Thanks again, keep em' coming.

@mibodega I draw on a Cintiq in Flash. I draw out all of the key poses by hand and then use the Flash tools to symbolize different elements so I don't have to draw everyone on every frame the way you might with straight traditional. Still perfecting it though. Always learning. I do the BGs in Flash or Photoshop, then, depending on the needs of the scene, either composite in Flash for straight forward stuff or in After Effects for more complicated stuff.

@TheXeeman yeah....my parents planned it that way in the '71. I went my whole life without coming across a single other Seth and now it's like entertainment is bursting at the seams with them.

@OmegaKingBoo And the author's name is Seth. Just like Seth, the family guy creator.

It's really cool seeing the process before the final animation. Some people think animators and cartoonists in general are vending machines, demanding stuff to be put up. But showing the rough drafts helps at least a little. I can see the obvious gestures for emotion. She goes from happy to uneasy.
