Animating a dancer in balletic moves is not easy, especially when the proportions of my characters are not... exactly... typical.   I don't cheat the balletic moves in this film, however, by doing cartoony ballet- it's as real as I can animate it, with the help of a dancer I once knew.
Working on lighting.  Halfway done animating the entire film, this is the beginning of section 7, there are 12 to the entire film, and 6 are done!

I'm not one to hype things much, but I thought this was a pretty enough render to do something with.  One thing I like about this is how true Ravel's profile is to the real life Ravel.  It's a little caricatured, but not too much... :o)
