  • A bit of the process, hopefully it will answer some questions from the comment section of the film. It's my first time compositing using After Effects (some errors can be noticed) and I'm still learning Toon Boom so by no means is my process error-free. It's also my first time doing a process video; I welcome your criticism!
    Software used:
    Clip Studio Paint for backgrounds
    Toon Boom Harmony for animation
    After Effects and Premiere for compositing
    The next film will be more long-term, over the course of maybe 1.5 to 2 years. Production begins now! See you in a while!
    Music: Xian by Antti Martikainen
