Week 2: Finalized List and Rigs for Clip 1

    For Week 2 of Senior Portfolio, I spent time searching for and creating a list of short audio clips ranging from 30 seconds to about 1 minute in length. When looking these clips, I wanted to use some comedic or tense scenes that provided the opportunity to push facial expressions and reactions to the extreme. After some thought, I have decided to proceed with the following clip as my first acting animation of the semester:

( Time: 00:21 - 01:32 )

    As I wanted to stay true to the clip as best I could, so I looked for rigs that best depict a young boy and some type of monster or humanoid creature. Ultimately, I went with two rigs from  https://agora.community. I chose the Ash and Kobold rigs from their site. Below are still images from their rig demos on their site.

Character Rigs:

    Below, I made a separate post with the list of YouTube videos, accompanying timestamps, and the MP4 files that I will be using to animate.
