Everest & Jin pre-production 2D tests by William Salazar
"I have made those rough pre-production animation tests in 2016, working closely with character designer Nico Marlet (he would do draw overs on my keys and I would adjust my animation accordingly)."From 2D to CG. 2D pencil tests by William Salazar
"Making a first pass in 2D, on top of being fun, helps me figure out the general action, rough timing and main poses for the characters. Like a blue print for CG. I can also show the directors earlier in the process and get their input before I start the final CG."
