Even though I’m curious to see what else you have in mind for this series, I’d like to know if you considered the possibility of expanding on this one sequence further. For example, we don’t really see any lower body growth, or any close ups on her arms or abs. While I respect your creative choices, I’ve seen many good sequences that could have been awesome if they had been fleshed out further.
I agree with DevonCorey in all respects.
Great job finally putting this together TC2! I liked the whole setting of her rolling out of bed and awakening to the imminent change. The shot of her in front of her dresser mirror was also hugely effective. The alarm clock getting crushed at the beginning was an amusing touch.
My only complaint was it could have been longer and more detailed. It would have been nice to see her shirt ripping from even more angles!
Boys, boys, boys...
Do you honestly believe that this small 1:30 animation was all that I had up my sleeve? Heh heh, okay I'm going to elaborate on a few things first so that you guys can be in the loop.
Okay so here are some very important points that need to be clear:
1.) The animation is hand drawn, frame by frame. I forget what the least frame count was but I believe it was around 367 frames or so. That means I have drawn 367 times, whether I tweaked a frame, re-colored, or re-drew. All of that animation is done by hand with the help of some distortion tools. So it will still take me a long time to reach the goal I've set for myself and no I will not be using flash or any other programs.
2.) The animation you just saw was only skimming the surface of what I have in store for everyone. There was INTENTIONALLY no lower body growth or bicep close ups, because I was saving those for an even MORE detailed FMG transformation. In fact, if you pay close attention you notice I didn't even reveal the entire body, you never saw her from head to toe fully muscled up. The intention was to leave you guys wanting more and I believe from the comments I have managed to pull that off.
3.) Though it was intentionally left out to whet the appetite, lower body growth is not a very popular focus in FMG animations. I know this because of focus testing I have done releasing small animations that just involved legs bursting out of jeans and what have you. They were the least popular when it came to comments and downloads. Currently the favorites are: Biceps, Breasts, Back, and Feet. However, because I like covering all aspects of the body; when the opportunity presents itself I will include full-body growth. Oh and I also chose to have the LEAST amount of clothes for the first animation, so that when it came time to rip sleeves, burst shoes, shred jeans, and pop blouses. The FMG effect can REALLY kick in. The whole idea of the animation is to build, build, and build into a wonderful climax and you've only seen the introduction.
4.) This animation is the introduction to the FULL LENGTH animation, meaning that if you thought this animation was short. You are right, it is intentionally so because the WHOLE ENTIRE ANIMATION. Will be AT LEAST 10 minutes or so, which is an eternity in animation world at least for me. It's going to be the classic clash of good and evil and will contain AT LEAST a minimum of 6 FMG transformations all in the same animation. There's no series, this is going to be full on movie production status.
5.) Future FMG animations will have more clothes, so expect to see biceps bursting from sleeves. Blouses popping open, jean buttons popping off at the waist, underwear tearing to shreds, muscles bulging, nipples protruding, backs splitting shirts open like earthquakes. Oh yeah... you ain't seen nothing yet.
Whoo! Good feedback guys, I already knew you guys would ask me that; so I already had the answers prepared. It's going to be a while before I post the next one, but I will keep updating everyone on the status of the project.
Thanks again, I am still open to hearing from many more people, so make sure to spread it around!
