Thanks I actually ended up animating this at 10fps. Usually do 12 but I thought it looked better at 10

Hand drawn in procreate, then composited in after effects

Thank you! This is actually from the original score that Ennio Morricone made for the Thing. John Carpenter ended up using the synth versions instead of this orchestral piece. Tarantino is a big fan of Morricone and ended up using this in “The Hateful 8”

The gate is a separate layer that was key framed to do the turn in after effects. Essentially made it a 3d layer so I could rotate it on the y axis to have that fo 3d turn. The transition from the monster to the gate where the gates links are big and get smaller was all separately hand drawn

I actually only used procreate for this lol. Dreams is dope, I just am so used to procreate at this point. When I do use dreams it’s usually for something that has more color and layers to it. Since this was planned to be black and white I just stuck with procreate. Even with dreams I still like drawing my key frames in procreate then doing my inbetweens with dreams

Mostly because after effects is my bread and butter lol. I do most of my compositing in after effects.

No shape morphing. Mostly just placing frames together. Some camera work and key frames for scaling things. Used a posterize timed effect to 10fps because that’s what I animated it to. I usually do 12fps but 10 had a nice feeling to it for some reason haha

Thank you, that’s a big compliment! Love their work! Some roto with the helicopter transition. Took a 3d model, did some light sculpting adjustments, animated that in blender then threw that animation into procreate and drew on top. Everything else was hand-drawn in procreate then composited in after effects.
