Troll - acting

This was a quick animation test. The sound file and the character were taken from the 10 second
club. I spent about 4 days on it in total including the rendering. First I did some thumbnails and
recorded myself acting the lines out. I then got the lip-synching pretty much pinned before blocking
the character out in to the key poses. The second day I put in the in-betweens and cleaned up the
motion. Third day was spent doing the facial stuff and tweaking the lip-synching. Fourth day was
spent doing test renders, tweaking and final renders.

I've never had to use other peoples characters before, I think it came out okay, considering the time
limit... I enjoyed doing it anyway.
