Shot 18 is similar to the first shot i animated, shot 16.
You only see her hand and the tyre swing again but in this shot, she is struggling a lot more to stay upright and is losing all her strength very fast, becoming very weak. you can see this in the shot because her hand shakes and trembles as she reaches out for the tyre swing, still not quite close enough to grab it.
It took me a while to figure out how exactly I was going to get the hand to shake/tremble.
What I ended up having to do was set a key on every single frame I wanted the hand to shake in, then slightly move the hand just a fraction, left and right in every frame and set it. It worked fairly well and looked believable as a slight tremor in her hand.
As well as completing this scene I have also managed to complete nearly all of my remaining work that I personally had to complete. I have also realised all of the shots I have animated have had static camera shots which is just the way we have shot our animation and found that for the scenes I shot, this was most effective in contrast to the whole animation. I did however set up the camera for shot 6 which was set up to zoom during that scene and the shot turned out really well. Jitesh managed to do an amazing job timing the zoom which I helped him achieve to capture a great shot.
