I really should have been more frequent with this one! I've been getting a lot of animation done on it while waiting for fluid sims on the bronto/raptor/bigger dino guy post credits animation. Lots of character action, lip sync, some parts are more rough than others but a lot of it is shaping up to be pretty cool I think.

I've attached what the animation is looking like for the most part, around ~45 seconds and beyond I did a lot of stuff.

Also I don't remember if I ever posted this, but I did some tests with the [p][i]ss fluid. It actually was turning out good but I've kind of learned from the bronto post credits that it's much, much better to have the character getting fluids on them to have mostly finalized animation before starting to simulate fluids.

This is a bit too much, but the motion blur and material for this alien bodily fluid looks pretty cool I think! The motion blur really adds a lot to the sense of force. The stream wouldn't be as powerful or big as this usually but the head part can kind of fill up with fluids so he can hold it back for a bit, then let it go so it's like an extra powerful stream for a bit.

Anyway I highly recommend checking out the current animatic, I was having a lot of fun animation these two and doing some fun camera movement! It really is cool doing something with more camera angles and a bit of those good old fashioned pan/zoom/dolly/track/tilt/roll/pedestal movements.
