Happy March, everyone—It’s time to share our progress so far!

First, let’s start with the biggest highlights of the month: the Clean Pitch, onboarding our new color artists, and overall, the beginnings of the animatic build. Read more about our major milestones plus exciting sneak peaks of our process below!

Storyboards
Congrats to the Story team for their hard work for the Clean Pitch! The boards are looking amazing, things are shaping up! As we enter the Animatic phase, our Board Artists and Revisionists will be continuing to address notes while elevating the boards!

Edit

Speaking of Animatic—our Edit team will be hard at work working with the Story team in cutting together boards and prepping the Animatic V1 build!

Design

For Design, Production has been assessing our Design needs as we head into our last few weeks of the in the Pre-Design phase, and prepping for the official Design phase! We’ve based our Design Breakdown off our Clean Pitch animatic and have launched all artists on remaining assets, which leads to a very exciting announcement: we have officially onboarded our final batch of artists, the Color Team! A warm welcome to our new members, bringing our TEAm over 100 people total!

We’ve also been busy this month with color and render tests. Playing with color style and exploring the look of the show has been a blast– here are some sneak peaks!

Music & Sound

While we’ve been working hard with the visual aspect of TEA, we’ve also received our first pass on the main melody and lyrics for the opening number! And have started sourcing SFX for the episode. We can’t wait to put everything together.

Records

And on the topic of sound, Pickups/ADR/Efforts have started! ADR and Pickups is the process of “dubbing” in lines after the animation is done (boards in this case).

With so many new and exciting updates, we can’t wait for the next one! We’re getting into the home stretch!

See you then!
