Working it out.....
So, it's been a while since I've updated here..before the break i finished editing and timing my animation in Final Cut Pro, intending to import it into After Effects, but then i saw that things are gonna get out of control, as frames were missing because of rendering and it effected the images. Jack suggested to keep it simple and stay with one program, because otherwise it's gonna get complicated - and i agree + I'm NOT good with computers, so we don't want this combination..
I deleted what i finished exporting in Final Cut and over the break i worked out the timing with my original files and changed the numbering as well, so when the time comes, all i will have to do is to import each image sequence for each shot and that's it.
Now the animation is really ready.
Today in Adrien's class i got back to AE - and i was organising all of my backgrounds timed to the Animatic + all the camera moves. I added the Titles (beginning and end) and the sound FX + the theme - it's all set and what I've got left is to place my animation for each shot on top of each background.
Once I'll see it all ready and finished in black and white, I'll focus on colouring (I'm still considering it, because i love how it came out with the pencil lines) and i finished!!!!!
Jack, i will probably need your help on Friday with it. I really think i can finish it this weekend, not much left at all...
That's all for now :)

update...
The last two weeks i was going through the animation and i ended up fixing a lot + redoing shots like the walk cycle. Jack, i took your notes and tried to fix the movements with several frames. I was working on the establishing shot as well, as it was lacking details in the foreground.
Now that i fixed the animation and completed putting the backgrounds all together + cleaning them, i started scanning the animation (each frame individualy because every place that i went to wanted to ripp me off (90$ for scanning 250 images to files!!!!!!!!!!!!! - crazy), so i finished scanning half of it.
I really hope that by the end of this weekend i would be able to put my animation with the backgrounds together and add my soundtrack with the titles - so i can finally see it all together and if it works. If everything is o.k, i'll work out the timing and colour everything and i hope i'll be able to finish it all by the end of the month or even september...
I'll replace all the pencil tests on my blog with the new ones soon...
