7. Final comp and edit

Once everyone is happy with the animation we can start on the final render. For 3D animation this means adding light and textures. For 2D animation this means cleaning up the linework and adding colour from the design sheets.

Once each shot has gone through this process, it is laid against the animatic, added to the soundtrack and then run out as the finished piece.

It’s a simple process, which just requires a lot of skill. Fortunately, we work with a lot of talented people.
