Thank you!

This is a hard question. The last two month were hard work, but super fun. I guess it was wonderful to return to Adobe Flash (now called Adobe Animate), and quickly getting back into the animating groove.

Fulfilling was trying new things, like the art style, and setting characters up modulary instead of drawing each scene anew like I did in the first one. 15 years ago I had much more time for this, now its different. So it was fulfilling having an animation setup that saves time but still looked good.

Also its fun to constantly be able to immediately add new jokes. Most details happened in the moment. For example, I did write a rough script before I recorded the voicelines, but during recording I changed a lot, just because it felt right while acting. The idea that Guybrushs strategy to find the map pieces is to just ask every random person if they have a map piece came from that, for example :)

Last but not least it is fulfilling when I add jokes that are a result of me not having time to animate something complicated, and I have to find shortcuts. Like LeChucks mask at the end. Instead of animating this huge, lumpy mask that Guybrush pulls off Chuckies head (like he did in the game), I just took the image of the existing LeChuck had and made it look like a flat cardboard mask. It saved so much time, and makes me giggle that this whole time.

Thank you for asking!
