Junior Animator (Assistant Animator and Clean Up Artist) Golan the Insatiable (Season 1)

Fox — TV — Augenblick Studios Details
10/14 – 3/15

I was responsible for cleaning up rough animation. This included keeping characters on model (did not grow or shrink in proportions, colored correctly, and retained show's style). I was also responsible for completing scenes passed off by lead animators which meant animating frames in-between key frames. Finally, I was responsible for finding and correcting mistakes made on a scene's first pass based on production notes. I would often find additional mistakes not noted which would save the studio time and money.
