on the planning. I loved this project so much but I didn&#8217;t get to do everything I wanted\/make it look as good as I wanted. I&#8217;ve definitely learned my lesson and will plan to spend not so much planning so I can make it look even better<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--80);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--80)\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-custom-purp-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5279dc6fa504651ffe77f017d43ac2a9\" id=\"motionmedia\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);margin-right:10rem;margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);margin-left:10rem;font-size:clamp(27.894px, 1.743rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 2.285), 48px);\">My After Effects Animatic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-1-color has-custom-color-2-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-36132de11d263c55b186e6c6e2a5474b\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">For this project I was tasked with making a 1 minute animation to a song of my choice, and 30 hrs to work on it. The story follows my character Violet (from my previous project) who has just transferred to public Magic School and isn&#8217;t quite up to speed on how things work, so Hexana decides to tease her about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-custom-purp-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1233e24125d88c4673ec038eb315077b\">Ideas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-color-1-color has-custom-color-2-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-c45449ed6a38b678f0e05f3c5ea73e46\" style=\"padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">I had an idea of what song I wanted to use and how I wanted them to act, but I needed my actors! Of course Violet&#8217;s design was easiest as I just had to give her a new school uniform. Hexana was my favorite to make because she&#8217;s based off of popular magician characters, including Trixie Lulamoon who is singing the song. The extras or Hexana&#8217;s gang were just some basic designs I had floating around in my head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-content-justification-center is-nowrap is-layout-flex
