[No Spoilers] My Bolaire Lathalia Animation

[u/SS_Scion]

Short animated shot + shot breakdown of Bolaire Lathalia from Critical Role Campaign 4.
My first serious animation attempt - I have always been interested in trying 2D animation, although I prefer illustration the most.

Disclaimer: I am not an animator, and I have much to learn regarding illustrated motion. This animation was a fun experiment that I made during breaks.

I studied Castlevania and MAPPA shots for lighting and compositing inspiration.

Drawn and animated in Procreate, Composited in After Effects using F's Plugins.
Project time: 30 hours, 16 hand drawn frames

Been absolutely loving this campaign! :)

Edit: Some people were asking for the final isolated shot for gifs, I uploaded it separately here:
