I chose Loop De Loop once I got clearance from the tutors as being acceptable due to me doing the same project for the previous portfolio building choice. Again following my predisposition of being versatile when it comes to style, I used this opportunity to experiment with different brushes and techniques. With the theme being "bug", I got several more instant-ideas then the last time. In comparison to the smooth, polished style alongside the affectionate motif during the last animation, I wanted to do something more sinister this time. Furthermore, with minimal time remaining until the LoopDeLoop deadline (January 28 - I started doing this project on January 21), I needed to be as efficient as possible. Thus, based on an old digital drawing concept of an album cover I made (keyword: cocoon), I decided on the style that I wanted to emulate. Considering that the animation was to flow in a falling vertical fashion, I needed to think about HOW I was going to effectively animate that - using After Effects as a composition tool. Finally, in order to calculate whether I was going to reach the deadline without stress, I set out to do the idle assets of the animation first (the cocoon and bug spray), which proved to be arduous but manageable.
