COVID Film: Maya Clean up Animation

this is the clean up pass of the Maya Sacrifice scene. The flaming baby scene precedes this and I decided to use the crying baby as the high priest in this scene. Chances are most people will not notice. My thought is that most world leaders are crying babies. The only thing I added was the eyes which first look at the victim’s chest and then at the virus after it is extracted.

I am close to finishing the scene but there are many more layers that need to be composited in After Effects. The hand is drawn so big because it is moving very fast causing a blur. I could finish the scene today but I am not sure if time will allow for that. I am getting a Novavax vaccine shot at 7PM tonight. I am timing this shot so it is two weeks out from the Chicago International REEL Shorts Film Festival. Buttons came in last night and they looked good. The post cards I printed look like crap but hopefully I can get a better printing run for the next festival.
