Firstly, I Fixed the issue where right clicking to finish typewriting the text changes previous line breaks.
Secondly, I did a whole bunch of polishing on the intro. I'm still not done with it, but it's getting there!
Here is what I did this week:
Updated Mikey back view to the new design (when he's looking at the guitar outside the store).
Finalized Mikey's and Grover's clothes for the party.
Added Mikey forelock + animation (when blowing the candles).
Chuck party hat and blowing a party horn.
Added some idle fidgeting to all the characters.
Added George closeup view + handing gift (I'll probably add a couple more frames in between to smooth this animation).
Added gift opening closeup.
Grover talking in the background with Mikey on the walkie talkie.
Added a small flag animation.
Added fire sfx loop for ambiance.
Some minor dialogue changes.
So what is left to do with the intro?
Handing the second gift and unwrapping it.
Another camera angle, I'm not sure which yet, maybe a top view, maybe behind the kids backs, maybe a long distance one (possibly a view from the sea). I need to give this some thought before I start drawing.
Possibly a closeup view on Chuck.
I'm also thinking about animating the sea a little, so it won't look too static. Though I'm not closed on how it looks now, so I'll probably work on design first.
Once I'm done with this scene, there is some polish to do on the final bedroom scene, not too much work, just a couple of animations for Mikey, mainly turning off/on the bedside lamp.
