Here are my GIF entries

Hello everyone, here's my entry for this competition

THE PROCESS The main software I used is Adobe Photoshop with my digital tablet. I drew all of the characters with their separate parts that needs to move. (head, eyes, hair, body, effects and accessories) This step took a lot of hours from designing, sketching, line-art, coloring and finalizing. I used wallpaper engine for animating the separated parts. I was able to apply all the complicated movements like blinking, shake, water waves, glowing and breathing effect. I exported all the videos and used Premiere Pro for looping the animation and adjusting the timings.

THE CONCEPT The first thing came up in my mind for the GIF I could make was a mascot or character/s for Thermaltake. I was hesitant at first because character designing will be a lot of work. At the end of the first week I was able to make a sketch of the characters. This is their early design. Presenting the Thermaltake Comets: Luna, Hibana and Sol. The members of Ttake Comets are experienced defenders with their specialization in weapons. Luna- marksman from the West. She has the ninety-nine percent accuracy with any long-range weapon she can use . Hibana - cursed brawler of the Underground City. The chosen host of the parasitic fire gauntlet. Sol - swordsman of the Far East. She traveled the whole world mastering all the sword-styles with her pulse katana. I decided to make GIF set for each of the character. The CPU LCD will have their animated portrait GIF and the RAM LCD will have their animated pose GIF.

The hardware has arrived! Time to test the components
