Blender Character Animation Test

Much to my surprise, I realized recently that I have almost no experience in animation. Just modeling, I guess...

This is a test of the animation technique of blocking, in preparation for a short film I am still considering developing and creating.

I actually think the cubes are awesome, considering they took roughly two minutes to make.

For 30 years, I've been bringing *any computer to its knees with a render.... as speeds and power increase, I've merely increased the complexity of the content, so have learned to manage PASSES -=>IOW, render the background, then tweak the animation and do it in a separate pass (with shadows), composite in post-- as nodes. Doesn't make a lot of difference HERE, but YEAH, 1-2 hrs has gotta be long for this scene. Cannot imagine why an "early version" would be desired.
