Description
This is my little piece of Battleborn's opening cinematic.Just wanted to show a tiny glimpse of the process that goes into constructing a shot. I didn't have much time to draw this one between my duties as animation/art director. Wasn't sure how it'd be received once it got out there.
It warmed my heart (a lot) to see Kotaku give the opening cinematic so much love earlier this week.
For those who are curious this was drawn purely in Photoshop CC (2015) on a Wacom Cintiq 12WX.

Really such a well done animations! Would truly love to see more fight scene animations! Especially hand to hand (Weapon to weapon especially) combat scenes!
Are you going into different projects someday? Besides Battleborn? Maybe like Overwatch or that up coming Battle Chasers game?

Thanks, man. I really have to thank you again for being patient while all that was happening. It really ate a huge chunk out of last year.

Because you find it amusing to watch us think of you as "any other man"... I've found you out!

What program did you use? I'm interested in getting into animation, but haven't the slightest clue where to start.

Forgive me for not having the info earlier.
I drew this in Photoshop CC 2015. You'd need to have a fairly decent understanding of the basics of animation to get around easily in the software.
The process is a bit like animating on paper, but is fully digital, so you get a lot of tools that can help your drawings stay accurate.
After that it just comes down to your ability.

Hey so I actually had a question. I usually animate on photoshop myself, but it hasn't been rendering my videos in recently for some unknown reason. I'm wondering if it's the animation itself, Photoshop, or something else...my computer is fairly new as well so I know it can't be the computer itself. Nonetheless I haven't been able to render in any new animations because of this problem, was wondering if you might have any insight. I've been forced to see what other animation programs i can work with until I fix that.
