Turning Toad Footage into Animation

Ananda Prayogi, 3D Character Animator at Batara Studio, raised the curtain to show us how recorded footage turns into 3D animation. He captured his own movements and then transferred them to an anthropomorphic toad, and you can see the steps in between in the video above.

He went through blocking, spline, and polish stages and then added some effects to produce an impressivelt smooth animation.
