From Sketch to Screen, this is how one shot in The King and the Pawn gets created!
BOARDS
Board artists come together to construct the animatic and through numerous sessions of rewrites and edits, the scene is perfected in 2D to transfer to 3D.
ANIMATIC
Transferring a concept in 2D to 3D is not an easy task. You can't just start the process of animation without a solid blocking pass. That is why, using the completed rigs, a blocked animatic is made, to show the composition of the film in a 3D environment.
Animation
After everything was blocked out, the animation came next, taking the beautifully modeled characters and puppeteering them to create authentic and lively motions.
Lighting
Finally, the last renders come in, leading to the complete shot with the best lighting we got!
