![]() We animated the characters and effects in Adobe Animate. Adobe Animate combined with Photoshop and After Effects is a really powerful animation toolset. How did you achieve the specific look? Tell me a bit about the process involved.īarry: Working in the Adobe family of products really helps streamline our process. We can’t let anything get in the way of what the client is asking for or what our artist can dream up. Animate lets us do and go anywhere we feel like. Here at Titmouse, we have tons of shows, and they all have unique and drastically different styles. ![]() The only restriction is one’s ability to think of something new and cool. Mike: One of the great things about Adobe Animate is that we could choose any style we wanted for this project. There were so many different characters and costume changes in “Star Wars.” Everything was constructed on a shot-by-shot basis. Lines were used only for details within the character’s silhouette we added light and shadow on a shot-by-shot basis. We decided to ditch the contour line to make the style a little more forgiving. if it gets too loose and round, it becomes hard to make the characters feel strong and constructed in cool action scenes. If you get too heavy on lines, the characters become stiff and rigid. So we needed a style that’s flexible to service all that encompasses the franchise.

Lucasfilm was a really great creative partner, and the project went really well. How did this project materialize?īarry: Titmouse made some shorts for Lucasfilm a few years ago leading up to “The Last Jedi.” They were really cute, fun shorts featuring BB-8. Kelly and Mike Roush, the director and animation director of the show respectively. Still young and still as exciting as ever! And when it came to doing an animated version of the series, Lucasfilm turned to Titmouse Inc., the premier animation studio based out of Los Angeles. It prompted us to dress up and speak like Darth Vader. ![]()
